I see those who use obscene language or loudly playing music with filthy lyrics as neither respecting themselves nor those near them. I tolerate it quietly as part of living peacefully knowing that I cannot control others' behavior.
Hallelujah!! When I was a kid people would have “shouting spells” when they got blessed in church - “hallelujah” is the best way I know how to “shout” on paper!! Isn’t God great? I’m as guilty as anyone of being “proper” because I was ashamed of that shouting behavior when I was a kid but I’m looking forward these days to our proper church behavior being turned on its head. May it be so!!
I'm guilty of dressing up to go to church, but am getting better about finding God in many places other than on weekend worship. Thanks for your help in my progress in this area.

Thank you, Martha. I think the dressing up is fine, but the intention behind it is what really matters. Also, thank you very much!!!
