To the men. Go to church today.
You will tell yourself you can worship anywhere. That is technically true and practically useless. God works by ordinary means and he has told us what they are. He works through preaching, through the Word read out loud, through the table, through people who will notice when you stop showing up.
You are tired and you had a hard week. So did everyone else in the pew. Go anyway.
And know what is waiting. Christ is not standing there to grade the week you just had. He is worthy on his own account and he gives himself to men who arrive with nothing in their hands. That is the entire offer, and it has never once been adjusted for merit.
Get up. Go. I promise He will fill you up.
