Surrendering to Sabbath (where everything is an act of worship)

Commit your way to the Lord;
    trust in Him and He will do this:
 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
    your vindication like the noonday sun.

Psalms 37:5 (NIV)

My friend Shelly recently wrote about worship…

When the heart is ready to be given away, everything we offer is an act of worship. And it’s beautiful. 

Her words crossed my mind yesterday as my daughter and I walked two and a half leisurely miles through the park yesterday morning, just being together.

Raising teens isn’t easy…motherhood ain’t for sissies, and it is my prayer that we will get it right. I believe my parents got it right. My in-laws got it right, and we seek God’s face in prayer that with His help, my husband and I will get it right. Our walk was worship. Our conversation, choosing to exhibit grace towards one another instead of impatience; listening, really listening to one another in joy and love, were acts of worship, and yes, it was beautiful.

Please Shelly’s advice…begin where you are. Take time. It is all worship. Commit it all to Him, and your vindication, your blessings, will shine like the noonday sun.

Never ever stop chasing Grace and Peace.
