A Break for the Big Dog


S ~ Then Jesus said to them, “The Sabbath was made to meet the needs of people, and not people to meet the requirements of the Sabbath." Mark 2:27

O ~ Sabbath is a gift, to meet the needs of people, not the need of God. God released us from work and allowed us to worship, to rest, to enjoy, and apparently, to do good.

A ~ It was made to meet the needs of people, even when people didn't recognize they had such a need. We all have a need to rest and re-set. A need to have our souls restored. A need to carry no burden, to do no work, to rest and enjoy. It's not just a desire, it is a need.

P ~ Lord, please help me see my need, and to not ignore it. You have commanded Sabbath for my good. You have made it, and provided it - please help me to learn how to live in it, and it in me.
