You know, I'm really just ready for this week to be over. I'm glad that in four minutes I can go down and light the Sabbath candle and usher in my favourite time of week.
There is just something really beautiful to me to think that God set us aside a day so He can be with us, if we choose to let Him share our time.
When things are out of order, I get disturbed. I'm bothered that my washing machine is gone and my wet laundry has to sit in a tub until the machine gets repaired. I'm bothered that my emotions get all out of whack at inconvenient times. I'm tired of thinking about fifty things at once and trying to follow through doing all fifty things at once, as I've been the last couple days.
I'm ready to put that stress and burden all aside now as the new day begins and clears the slate, as it were, for the week to come. I can just give it to God and say, "Here. You take it. I don't want it anymore." And He will. And as long as I don't try to snatch it back again, I can have peace.
I like peace.
