This felt like a long week. There were two very important meetings this week that required a fair amount of preparation and collaboration

Once again leading up to my Sabbath felt like a dash to 3pm. On the positive side, I think of Mondays as a gift to prepare myself to enjoy my Sabbath by freeing my mind of all the to-dos for the week.

A family member needed help this week on my Sabbath so I dropped my plans to help. I’m reminded of Jesus saying that the “Sabbath was made for man

One of my business partners called with an emergency approaching my Sabbath. I dove into work and my mind was no longer gearing-up for the Sabbath but stuck in the frenetic tasks of the normal work week

This week I did a “do-over” Sabbath. This was on Thursday. Why? Because although I kept my usual Sabbath day, it didn’t feel like one. I met up with a pastor for coffee

The busier I am, mentally and physically, the more difficult it is to “Stop.” I think it was Isaac Newton in the first law of Physics who said that a body in motion tends to stay

I started my Sabbath late, again. I was making tweaks to portion of Sermon on the Mount series and lost track of time.

Since January 2nd I’ve had congestion, coughing, and lethargy. It’s been over a week now and while it’s better

After nearly two weeks I’m not physically back 100% yet, but close. I still feel more tired.

Again, lots on my mind of tasks to do that I didn’t complete before sabbath. There were many things that I could have easily engaged in during my sabbath...
