Sabbath time … it’s about priorities

Morning: Psalms 97, 99; Jeremiah 17:19-27; Romans 7:13-25
Evening: Psalms 94; John 6:16-27
They say Sabbath is a day of rest, but it is far more.  It is time (a day, part of a day, or an hour, not necessarily Saturday or Sunday) … time to get our priorities straight and let God be God.  Sabbath is time in which we stop trying to control events and, instead, leave control to God.  Jesus taught that we spend too much time working for perishable stuff.  Sabbath is time set aside for us to remember that our souls need more than bread.
