Shabbat or Sabbath: The most holy day

-
Today is Saturday.

It is the seventh day of the week, and is the day of rest.

It is the most holy day of the year.

And it happens fifty-two times in a year.

How is it the most holy day? And is it really? You might wonder.

Look at Genesis 2:1-3.

Shabbat is so important that God Himself (Adonai) did it. He set Himself as the example. He showed us how important it is.

If God did it, the King of the Universe and Creator, the Most High and Eternal One, then do you think we might want to do the same?

Confessions of a Bible-nut

-
So I have another confession. I am a nut. With my favorite translation of the Bible. I am a walking storefront of my favorite version of the Bible. Want to see what possibilities there are? I have a thinline, medium print, large print, and giant print. The main Bible I have chosen, though, is the thinline, smaller print version because it is easy for me to carry and pace as I pray from it. It's also easy for me to carry it everywhere.

Do not be silent (at certain times)

-
There are times to be silent, like when we are with the Father. We need to listen far more than we speak. We miss out on much when we fail to hush and listen. (Sidenote: And isn't it funny/sad how we can say then how we are concerned because we haven't heard from the Lord?) However, there are times when we must not remain silent. Please read: Esther 4:14 Isaiah 62:1
