Being strong all week comes with a price. Tonight, I’m exhausted. We overslept for church this morning, skirting in just as class started with no breakfast. We intended to go back this evening, but just couldn’t make it. Being both physically and emotionally tired means Sunday really does need to be a day of REST. Now I firmly believe that church is important. We try to go as often as possible. I also believe that God created a sabbath day of rest. I know the Sabbath was technically sundown Friday until sundown Saturday, but we also know that we are not required to keep Old Testament laws. Christ tells us that the Sabbath was made to benefit us, not for us to benefit the sabbath. We can take our sabbath any day of the week. The point is to slow down, rest, and focus on God.
Mark 2:27 “Then Jesus said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.”
Someone has drifted off to sleep while waiting for bedtime…I wish it was the children. 😉
I hope your Sunday was filled with Jesus, family, and rest.
