Sabbath: A Divine Opportunity to Become Whole

Romans 8:22; Romans 1:28; Jeremiah 8:11-12; John 5:6

"To find wholeness we must acknowledge our brokenness, yet not dwell in it. No, we must ask God to come and dwell in the broken places of our minds and hearts and illuminate the darkness." ~Lisa Martinez

Becoming whole:

1. The situation: Creation fell and broke more than a hip.

2. Our response: We put Band-aids on our brokenness.

3. Question: Do you want to become whole?

4. Truth: Wholeness is only possible with Christ.

Sabbath: A Divine Opportunity to Play

Read Isaiah 11:1-11

"Play and Sabbath are joined at the hip, and sometimes we rest best when we play the hardest." ~Mark Buchanan

In order to play we must:

1. Be spontaneous.

2. Be light on the rules.

3. Take risks.

4. Lose awareness of time.

5. Enjoy the moment.
