This week I am sharing just a couple resources of wisdom on Sabbath days and spirituality. I found these to be welcome reminders to me this week during a time that is a flurry of activity otherwise. Blessings on your week ahead!
The Gift of Life
Sunday is the day to rest and enjoy the gift of life. So play family games, visit relatives, carry out a hobby, go swimming or hiking, play pickleball, work a jigsaw puzzle, attend a play or a concert, take a nap, or maybe even have a girls’ night out. Make yourself happy by making someone else happy this day. Make God happy by spending time with him in extra prayer.
Christians moved the Lord’s Day from Sabbath to Sunday because Jesus rose from thedead that day. Each Sunday is a little Easter. After observing it well, on Monday morning you arise from sleep, a little death, fresh and full of life.

Reflection on Spirituality
“When we expand our awareness, strengthen our center, clarify our purpose, transform our inner demons, develop our will and make conscious choices, we are moving toward deeper connection with our spiritual self.” “ – Molly Young Brown
