Okay, it's Thursday...so how am I going to set my self up for my weekend Sabbath day?Yes I said weekend. I have been trying to claim Sunday as Sabbath and have found that I inevitably have something scheduled, so I have declared that 1 day of the weekend will be Sabbath, which I think will work for us for the present. I'll let you know how it works!
- 1. Check the Calendar: Friday open, Sat teach yoga, do art with friends with friends, 5:00 work/church. Sunday work/church... check
- 2. Make the decision what constitutes an Okay Sabbath activity for you and your family. Yoga, paining church...all good...check
- 3. Make a menu plan for the day: Ham dinner...check
- 4. Make a shopping list to make sure I have supplies: Bakers, salad mix, asparagus...check
- 5. Choose a focus or discipline for the day: "Jesus is Calling" devotional...check
I'll let you know if the best laid plans actually come to fruition
Went with Sunday! It was a joyful day of mayhem. Taylor was home from college, all the kids came over for dinner (choice of 2 soups I had prepared the day before) started to knit a scarf, and I realized "Sabbath" though it means rest...happy activity if it is a change of pace can be equally refreshing!
