You know you need a Sabbath when:
- The only time you are alone is in the bathroom.
- It takes you over thirty minutes to fall asleep because your mind is racing about things you forgot to do.
- You think rest is sitting still in traffic.
- You go to check your e-mail for a moment and are still there an hour later.
- You cannot remember anything you ate in the last 3 days.
- You don’t know what day it is.
- You find yourself jealous and angry when someone else is enjoying life.
- When you tweet during movie, text during dinner, read e-mail during meetings and classes, and learn about your spouse’s day from Facebook.
Do any of these sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone.
That’s why we must recover the ancient practice Sabbath. It’s how we slow down our lives to delight in Jesus, and in doing so, anchor ourselves into eternity.
On today’s podcast, I share a message which is the second part of our podcast series on the Sabbath.
