Take A Break
Have A Sabbath
Wesley Methodist Church Singapore
9:30 am Sanctuary Service.
Sketchnote live : Pentel oil pastel colour after church
Sabbath: to rest
Ordained by God who rested on the seventh day
Combines concept of Rest and Redemption
Redemption/ Restoration = a gift of time
why busy busy "doing"
Take time to rest and value "being"
Acknowledge God as "centre" of our life
Sabbath allows us to develop a rhythm of life of Grace
and adopt a spiritual posture of Trust and Obey
Take home Message
1: TAKE A BREAK
Need to rest periodically, regularly
daily, weekly, monthly, annually
Life is a long distance marathon race, not a sprint
2: REST IS A SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE
Intentionally spend time with God.
3: HELP OTHERS WITH THEIR SABBATH
Family, Employees, Domestic Helpers.
4: KEEP SABBATH SACRED
5: KEEP SABBATH AS FAMILY DAY
Eat together, pray together.
