Rest Your Mind

Always remember that physical rest is only half of the rest that you need. You need to take a worry holiday. Actually, we shouldn’t be worried about anything because we are praying about and trusting God for everything. But you can at least get a start on that life of peace by gentling reminding yourself that you are on Sabbath and that you are not going to think about that problem right now. You will think about it after the Sabbath is over. The only exception to this rule is if the Holy Spirit suddenly starts speaking to you and giving you wisdom about what to do. In that case you aren’t worrying about the problem, you are receiving the answer to the problem.

Remember, each Sabbath is a mini vacation. Plan to relax and on the moment when your Sabbath begins get into that “vacation” frame of mind.
