Sunday ...Rest... I said rest.

Rest
A recent sermon at church highlighted the need for us to observe the rest day.
Now different faiths and religions use different days Fridays Saturdays or Sundays but they all recognise the need for rest. There are many things could be done on the rest day reflect observe discuss all activities that we miss during the working week where we plan, account and act.

I recall the story of the Chinese wall builders where the team that worked 7 days with no rest did not perform as good as the group that worked 6 days and rested on the seventh.

There is a need for work and there is a need for rest.
May this day for you be a rest day.

Contemplate

What observations have I made about the last week?
Reflect on Gods goodness to you?
Discuss with someone the requirement to rest.

In next week where must I plan,act and be accountable.

There is a good section at the beginning about rest.
