Mark 2:27

My view from "The Chair" this morning - Mark 2:27.  I can't tell you how many times I've breezed over this scripture and just really didn't give it a full thought.  My "Coffee Table" theology, as well as my, lack of really reading the words had left me believing that a Sabbath was just another one of His "preferences" for me.  How many times have you said, "I just need a break?" or "I just need a vacation?" or "I could really use a day to rest"?   I know these words have left my mouth many, many times in my 50 plus years. Up until this morning, I hadn't connected the dots.  Everytime I have said those words in the past, I'm sure the Lord was shaking His head, because He created our lives to have a "Sabbath;"  "a weekly break;"  or  a "Mini Vacay".  Whatever you call it, that was His plan.  We just keep hijacking it and then complaining.  We must drive Him crazy.  LOL!  Instead of looking at the Sabbath as a "Rule" or "Preference,"  think of it as a "Necessity" or "Essential" to staying healthy.  WHAT a gift!!!!  This changes everything for me.  How about you?   I would love to hear your thoughts.  Until We Chat Again, Crystal - The Plank-Eyed Girl
