Hello Sandra and Dave:
ReplyDeleteWe are sure that we are not alone in appreciating the time and trouble which you take each Sunday to share these thoughts and ideas.
They help to make a Sunday different from the rest of the week which is, we feel, as it should be.
I agree with jane and Lance :)
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the time you take also for Sabbath Keeping~every week!
And I think of both of you each day.
xo, misha
I was so glad to see your Sabbath Keeping appear on my list of updated blogs - always good thoughts, often a smile and the special connection of one walker on the road of Christianity to another walker - same road different places and same goal. Bless you - we are praying.
ReplyDeleteThank you once again for these wonderful Sunday Sabbath Keepings. You're a treasure, Sandra. ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteIt is Sabbath day and it is time for some Sabbath Keeping . . . which I always look forward to reading.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dearest.
Fondly,
Glenda

ReplyDeleteI like what Amy Carmichael and John Harrison said...
ReplyDeleteThank you!!!
Beautiful..I guess I must keep walking and not give up:)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a Christian but can relate to the message of many of these quotes. When it comes to Sabbath keeping, I will add one of one of my favorite writers: Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel.
ReplyDeleteHe said, 'The Sabbath is a Palace in Time'. It's all about building the Shabbat attitude for rest and resouling and then putting gentle structures in place to facilitate that rest.
Blessings,
This Good Life
