Tonight at Elevation we'll be talking about the often neglected ritual of Sabbath. Here are a few ideas for what to do when you choose to cease for a day. If accompanied by a thankful heart and a focus on the Creator any of these ideas can bring rest to your soul.
Eat and taste the food - give thanks to God
Sleep in (a sign of trust that things will get done)
Got a hot tub or spa? use it
A long bath
Go surfing
Meditate on a passage in Scripture
Bicycles Ride
Do a Puzzle
Play a musical instrument
Rent a Kayak
Drive the coast or mountains
Ride a motorcycle, Jesus would
Take a nap - Napping is awesome
Listen to music, not as background music - listen
Sports you wish you had time to do
Life giving recreation vs draining activity
Read Scripture
Lay out in the sun, lose that Nor Cal Non-Tan
Walk the Dog
Board games
Pray
Go out for Ice Cream
Make love
Take a walk
Get some exercise
Invite other people to your Sabbath
...Anything that charges your batteries, brings joy and can be given thanks for. Slow Down, stop moving so fast, relax your shoulders and look around you the world God created is Beautiful.
Remember to truly sabbath instead of just chill out you must remember God and interact with him in the midst of these or other activities.
