The ten commandments keep us focused on faith and good works. The fourth commandment--which says, "Remember the sabbath day and keep it holy"--is often overlooked, but it is essential that we learn to rest and take a day off.
Today we are very busy, and our lives are getting faster and faster. With less sleep and less relaxation, our heart muscles are slowly wearing out for lack of sleep and because of too much work.
Keeping the sabbath, a day of rest, is God's radical demand to us for a healthy, balanced life. Know that life is short, love is eternal, and be thankful. Take a day off! Everything will go better!
