In this morning's sermon our pastor stressed the importance of Sabbath, not the going to church Sunday morning activity that many of us think of as 'remembering the Sabbath' but the 'even God rested on the seventh day' kind of Sabbath.
By definition, Sabbath is a time of rest and renewal. Our pastor was stressing that we all should make time in our busy lives to take time for real rest (naps for instance).
I thought about this as I was driving home and realized something. Since I am 80+ and retired I do a little bit of volunteer work, but some parts of every day are available to me to do as I wish. Reading, weaving and spending time with my spouse are among my favorite pastimes.
I do believe I've entered the Sabbath of my life.
