The Sunday routine...

I just woke up from a 2 hour nap. On most Sundays I always wake up from a 2 hour nap at some point. That what Sundays are for. I got up as usual for church this morning after a rare(but wonderful) 8 hours of sleep the night before. It is so nice to sit in church and not yawn the whole time. I usually watch golf, or sometimes, very rarely, I will watch an NFL game in the fall, but usually golf. It is almost as if the Lord designed Sundays to rest....

So what do you guys think about the 4th commandment? You know, the one about remembering the Sabbath and keeping it holy? There is also language about resting. So how much work is too much work? How do we honor the Lord in our rest, and what does that look like? This idea seems quite foreign in our time, but I began to see the beauty in it a few years ago, and it has surely changed my outlook on Sundays...

My Sunday routine consists of sundaes. I eat sundaes on Sundays. When I tell my friends this, they get confused. They think I am saying, "I eat Sundays on Sundays." But that is not what I am saying. I am saying, "I eat sundaes on Sundays." Maybe they think I am saying, "I eat Sundays on sundaes." That would be strange.
