A COMMANDMENT FOR US ALL

In the beginning, the elohim created skies and earth.

Welcome back.  Let's think about the Decalogue.  I condensed them below for your perusal.

You shall have no other gods before me.

You shall not make a graven image.
You shall not take the name of Yahweh in vain.
Remember the Sabbath Day and keep it separate.
Honor your father and mother.
You shall not kill.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness.
You shall not covet.

The first three pertain to God.

One pertains to our parents.
The rest pertain to being moral in any society.

Only one is a gift to us all.  Do you see it?  It is such a lovely imperative from God through Jewish people.


It is the one commanding us to stop working and rest.  


Set aside a day of rest.  Stop working.  Chill out.  Walk away. Don't do  it.  Trust God.  Rest.  


We should all take care to obey that one for it will make us happy.  


So take a day off.  Rest...one day a week...thus says the Lord.


Blessings...
