A God-Prescribed Day of Rest

A God-Prescribed Day of Rest

By

Sabbath. That one word brings peace and rest to my often-weary soul. I grew up in a home that celebrated Sabbath from sundown to sundown, a 24-hour period of time. It was time we set apart each week for worship with our church family, fellowship with our friends and family, and enjoyment of God’s creation. I loved Sabbath as a kid, but it wasn’t until college that I truly valued the principle that God laid out in the fourth commandment.

  Have you ever noticed how we are programmed from a young age to measure success? From grades to Student of the Month to MVP, during our school years we are taught to celebrate the best and brightest. When we enter college, scholarships are awarded to the smartest students and top internships are granted to the highest achievers.
