Delighting in the Sabbath

“If you call the Sabbath a delight and the hold day of the Lord honourable; if you honour it, not going your own ways, serving your own interests, or pursuing your own affairs, then you shall take delight in the Lord, and I will make you ride upon the heights of the earth…” ~ Isaiah 58:13

Tomorrow is my Sabbath Day. I LOVE Sundays. I usually sleep in and then lounge for most of the day. Tomorrow will be a little bit different as my afternoon is quite full but fun. I am going to teach two or three colleagues how to make photo books for their trips. Afterwards I will head over to my parents’ place for my niece’s birthday.

I still plan on sleeping in and then having a leisurely morning though. I need that time just to pray and be. I use part of it for reading a friend’s homilies for that Sunday. This feels tremendously like God time for me. I think Sundays are my favourite day of the week.

Do you carve out a Sabbath time for yourself, a time of not doing but just being?

Peace,

Suzanne
