A Holy Day

We live in a world that is always “on” which can cause stress and burnout if we don’t take time to regularly stop and recharge. The Lord’s day is to be a day in which we stop all the work that has been the focus of the other six days of our week to find time to worship God and rest. The Sabbath is not a day for laziness, but a day to think about and worship God, take time to be with family and friends, do good to others, and to find rest for our body, mind, and soul. --- Many people are looking for a life of hope, freedom, and blessing. The law of God is often viewed as a list of do’s and don’ts, but it is actually God’s guide for us to experience a life of freedom filled with blessing. The ten commandments are not only God’s code of conduct for a moral life, but they help us see our need for Jesus and show us how we can live a life filled with hope.
