sabbath

“Sabbath is the holy time where we feast, play, dance, sing, pray, laugh, tell stories, read, paint, walk and watch creation in its fullness. Few people are willing to enter the Sabbath and sanctify it, to make it holy, because a full day of delight and joy is more than most people can bear in a lifetime, let alone a week.”

Dan Allendar


What do you think of when you think of keeping the Sabbath? Sitting around all day praying? Have you ever thought of it as a time to feast, play, dance, sing, pray, laugh, tell stories, read, paint, walk and watch creation in its fullness? What about napping, going to an art museum or concert, making love, holding a baby or playing with your dog? What brings smile to your face? What makes your heart skip a beat? When do you feel most alive?


Think on these questions and enjoy planning your Sabbath day.


Grace and peace,
Deb
