Question: One out of 9 people surveyed say they have missed work to do this. What is it?

Answer: Spend more time with their pet!

Our pets are really important to us. Many of them are a part of our family and we will do a lot for them and to spend time with them, delighting in them. According to this survey, more than 10% of us will skip going to work to do so.

But how many of us will skip work, sports, social events, or other things to spend more time in the presence of the One Who loves us most, trusting Him to give us all that we need as we delight in Him? That’s really what the call of the 4th commandment is: to remember the sabbath and keep it holy. Today pastor Jill will continue our series on Rhythms of Grace, in a sermon on Keeping the Sabbath.
