Jane's Response to Sabbath

I decided today that for my Sabbath, I am not going to go shopping.  Believing that buying things will make me happy, I can sometimes go to Target WAY too many times in a week.  I'm learning to go much less (there is always something not on my list I realize I need when I am there!), but am also making it a Sabbath "rule" for myself to stay away from the stores.  I actually pulled into the parking lot of Target today and then told myself NO! and pulled right back out. :)

Sabbath is hard...hard to carve out time...hard to make the time I carve out intentional...but today was a good day.  I even got a nap in, as well as a little bit of time with friends.  I'd say it was a gift.
