Clearing the Mind for Sabbath
Where did I feel resistance?
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.
Where did I feel delight?
I felt led to pray for specific people by name this week. I listened for scripture for each person and when one came, I sent them the verse. Most remarkable is when I knew of a verse for someone and didn’t exactly recall which chapter in Matthew it was and then felt a strong leading to Matthew 11 and there it was. Wow. Affirmation. In reading Acts 9:33-35 I’m so eager to see miracles like what Peter did.
Where did I most experience God’s nearness?
Reading, praying, sitting in the quiet is when I feel nearest to the LORD. It’s been so good. I cherish these times.
