“You have six days each week for your ordinary work,
but the seventh day must be a Sabbath day of complete rest,
a holy day dedicated to the LORD.”
Exodus 35:2 (NLT)

   Plan for Tomorrow
                Tomorrow is the Sabbath.  Plan at least one way that you will "keep" it.


  Think       Ask, what is it that I want to accomplish?

  Consider
                Sabbath Keeping will always be counter cultural.  If we are not deliberately
                thinking about how God's world and the world we're in differ, we will be
                conformed to "the world" without ever knowing it.  

                Choose something that takes you out of "the world" an into God's world for
                the day.

   Suggestions
                Go to Worship and actually worship God.  Praise him for who He is and all
                that He has done for you.
                Spend time counting your blessings. Do so until gratitude overwhelms you.
                Read through the gospels until you feel yourself connecting with Jesus.
                Do nothing.
                Turn off your phone, TV, radio, and computer and with no "agenda"
                connect live with someone "live".
                Take a drive through Southern Chester County
                Have dinner with your family and or friends and initiate a food fight

               Prayer “Lord, tomorrow is Your Day.  Help me as I plan to make it a day of
                            honoring you, resting in you, and leading my family to experience you
                            as well.   In Christ’s name, I pray,  Amen”  

     Conclude with Silence  (2 minutes)
