Heavenly Father,You are the Lord of the Sabbath. You created the heavens and the earth in six days, and on the seventh day you rested. You made the Sabbath holy, a day set apart to rest from my work, a day set apart to honor you.
Our physical bodies need rest. It is very important to rest. In thsee busy times we forget to rest, become tired and it takes a long time to recuperate. Let us take this Saturday after the holiday because in another 3 weeks you have another holiday. Please take time to be with your lord and savior and read the bible. Let the lord help give you rest and peace. Take time during that day for him. It is hard to help someone if you are too tired. This would be a good time to take a few hours on Saturday around the table with your family reading the bible, and getting to know our lord an savior. Many blessing will start coming to you if you do this. We know you have to work, but you need time to rest these days. It is also important to pray about your concerns so you can rest, you know he has your back. You would not believe how nice it is not to be bound by the adversary, and how much more peace and blessings you will have.
Here are a few bible verses that will go along with this lesson.
