Who sits in the congregation?

Sleepers         -        wide awake    

Young            -        old    

Learning to walk    -        forgetting how to walk    

Teachers, laborers, professors, secretaries, housewives, students, pensioners

Plenty of hair        -        bald

Worldly attractive    -        spiritually attractive

Saints            -        sinners

Adopted        -        unwanted

Shamed        -        unashamed

Abusers        -        abused

Hope filled        -         hopeless

Rejected        -        embraced    

Angry            -         peaceful

Unlovely        -        lovely    

Wounded        -        wounder        

Healed            -        healer    

Empty     - just enough    -    thriving    -    over flowing

Fearful/depressed        -    confident

Lost            -        rescued/found

Faithless        -        full of faith     -     the faithful
