It’s a sabbath for many, and I can relate.
If it’s not about the day of the week,
At the very least, I should have my day
To Rest as He did after six days of creation.
I’m in my office a little later than normal,
Sunday is around the corner, and there is much to do.
I’m planning a message and recapping a year spent
At the same time, I’m urging all: Get Ready! New Year!
What will I do through the next eight hours?
Close the loophole of distractions… Focus…
Pray, study, write, plan, re-write, pray, study…
It’s a given cycle that a message is not easily written
Especially when you think it’s not easily received.
Distractions are laid to the side; Focus sharpens the moment;
I need His Spirit. Lead me. I will follow.
It’s not what I want to say.
Rather, it’s what He instructs me to share.
Only I get to do it in my way.
The gods of this world have changed our focus.
Yes, we’ve been up to the task of letting it happen.
We are told it’s about living life and celebrating how we want.
Is that a fleshly desire? Is it Your sabbath? What gives?
Lord, what would I be doing if this were my last Saturday?
