Exodus 31:13
"Say to the Israelites, 'You must observe my Sabbaths. This will be a sign between me and you for the generations to come, so you may know that I am the Lord, who makes you holy.

Wouldn't it be something if we still held the sabbath as a holy day. Maybe thats where we make our biggest mistake. We are so money enabled that we forget that what we recieve in life comes from the All Mighty God, not from the work that we do. Not that 56 hour paycheck. As a new christian I am still learning all this and beginning to understand why the world is in the mess it is in. Everything that God laid down for us to follow we have thrown to the side, and if we would just do our works for the Glory of God and give him the respect and honor due then things would be so much simpler and he would find so much more favor in us.
