I always thought of Sunday as a “day of rest“…
Times have changed…
and Sunday has become as much a part of the work week as Monday…
Stores, business, restaurants, recreational areas, etc. …
are open pretty much 24 hours a day…
I also have found that with retirement…
Sunday is like most days that I have…
I actually can rest on any of the days of the week…
Stay in bed if I want…
Eat a late breakfast…
Read …
Watch TV…
Lay on the couch…
I don’t know if we can get this pattern we have started…
back in gear…
Things have changed so fast…
that even Sunday is just another day in people’s eyes…
I have to say… I think the Lord had it right…
Giving us Sunday for a “day of rest”…
a time to visit Him in a church setting…
a time to have dinner with loved ones…
a time to kick off our shoes and just sit and relax…
a time to clear our minds…
a time to actually be with our kids/families/friends…
and to have an actual conversation…
and I hope to use them in the future the way the Lord intended!
