The Sabbath.

SOOO i decided to flip through my Bible and stop at a random point then point down and see where I'm at then meditate on it.
So here it is!

Leviticus 23:23 - 25

The Festival of Trumpets

²³ The LORD said to Moses, ²⁴ “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. On the first day of the appointed month in early autumn,^[e] you are to observe a day of complete rest. It will be an official day for holy assembly, a day commemorated with loud blasts of a trumpet. ²⁵ You must do no ordinary work on that day. Instead, you are to present special gifts to the LORD.”

We often forget that God made the 7th day (Sunday) as a day of rest. Most of us, including myself, start cramming all our tests and assignments on this day and we put our full concentration on doing work, instead of on God.

We need to remind ourselves constantly that on Sundays we have to give it all to God. He's our creator and he made us so that we can worship him. Personally, I do sometimes forget to focus on Him and i get caught up with school work and don't bother praying or anything. Once i think of it, yes, i do regret it. We never know when our last day is so we must live each day to the fullest.

The reason for the day of rest is because when God created the world he did it all in 6 days and on the 7th he rested. He took a step back and looked at his creation. We should acknowledge the fact that we are still on earth. We have to be thankful for everything that we are given.
