'Sabbath is more than, better than, and other than what we usually think. Sabbath is a celebration of restoration.' - McLellandKristi
In 2007, the Lord opened the door for me to go study the Bible in Egypt and Israel. I went to Israel and learned that God is BETTER than I ever knew. And so is the Bible.
One of the FIRST things we learn about the Lord in the story of the Bible is that when He sees a mess, He enters into it to bring restoration. We run from drama. The Lord runs right into it—He knows His hands are restorative in their nature. Something broken is about to be made whole. Something fractured is about to be brought into harmony. The lame will walk. The blind will see. The bent will be straightened. The sick will be made well.
For the Jewish people, Shabbat begins on Friday night at sundown. Two candles are lit. Shabbat begins with a meal. God stories are told. It’s a time to cease, remember, laugh, celebrate, share table fellowship.The Jewish people have a word for the atmosphere and spirit of Shabbat. It’s calledis a “restfulness that is also a celebration.” Sabbath is bathed in levity, buoyancy of spirit. True Sabbath not only causes us to breathe, but it also causes us to laugh.
