"Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during the plowing season and harvest you must rest.
I have found that Sunday mornings means so many different things. Some people purpose church and singing unto Jesus. Others take the day go do family things. Some just sleep in and relax. I don't really know what everybody else does, but no matter what, I purpose time to think about what God did for this big world. He created space between us and time of bringing us together. World peace would be nice and living in a land of freedom. Not everybody experiences peaces or freedom even in there own minds. Sunday is none as a day of rest.
SUNDAY ~
I play over the week in my mind. What could have done different or how much wasted time did I do? Trying to make my next week better and each day full of purpose. I find that someone is always watching my life and my example matters to others. None of us are the same and that's a good thing. We were created different for a reason and God has plan for each of our lives.
As I get older, I realize how important one day can be. I never want to miss out on things and that leads me to not resting enough. Someone told me that watching my life over Facebook was just tiring. The question was this, "do you ever just rest?". Of course I do and I enjoy movies, reading a book, or just sitting on a bench watching my granddaughters play. Sunday's mean going to church for me when I'm home. My church is full of life, energy and learning about God. It's also a perfect way to connect with others on a Sunday and share a smile or just a ear to hear someone. People go through some hard stuff and God is able to meet them where they are at in life.
Where you are at today in life? Do you just need a ear for someone to listen? Never allow yourself to separate from good people. God bring lives together and the devil tries hard to divide. The truth is known to set your free. The truth is, Jesus died for you and me. He wants us to grow in knowledge of who he is and his plan is to keep you from sin. A play to enter Heaven one day and one day you will rest with him forever.
Freedom is yours and a new day is here. Go ahead and do something nice for yourself. Treat yourself the way you would hope others would treat you. As a child, I tried hard to have friends and it just never happen in grade school. I was a shy kid and I did not learn quickly. Reading was hard and spelling seem to be even harder for me. As I grew older, I tried every harder to spell. Something about it, was just hard. Now I write this blog and some people comment back about my spelling or sentences that do not make sense. I continue to press forward because I do my best daily. Maybe one person reads this and that one person needs encouragement today. Press forward into who you are in life and never let anyone stop you from doing what is good.
Never forget that JESUS LOVES YOU and we are overcomer in this big world. One person does make a difference and one light spreads out. My prayers continue for you, your family and friends. Sunday morning blog just for you today. God is on your side and able to handle whatever you face. Face it with him and allow yourself to feel his amazing peace. He didn't bring you this far to leave you! This day, his plan continues to unfold into greater things for you.
