As I reflected on the sermon this week, I was reminded of the importance of Sabbath rest and celebration in our lives. Just as Allen shared about his childhood experiences on the farm, where Sundays were a day of rest and a time for worship and fellowship, it is crucial for us to find moments of rest amidst the busyness of life.
Summer, with its warm weather and longer days, can provide us with opportunities to pause, reflect, and renew our spirits. If you find yourself on vacation this summer, don't forget to actually rest and recoup. Let us prioritize spending time with God, seeking true rest in Jesus, and celebrating the goodness of our Heavenly Father during this summer season!
