Reflection on The Very Good

Named Day: Day of Days.

Day to worship the Ancient of Days.

Rainbow Day: symbol of the covenant.

Jubilacious Day: testament to the grace of the Creator.

A Day established by Israel’s God and unknown beyond Israel’s story.

A Day spoken and written by Israel’s God: commanded and commended.

A Day to celebrate and remember: to observe and enjoy.

A Day set apart and claimed as God’s own.

Remember that God is our source: no good thing arrives without God.

Remember that God is our strength: no good thing departs without God.

Remember that God is our God: God does not need our help to be God.

Remember that God is our rest: cease and desist! and know that God is God.

God stopped on the seventh day and declared the work of the six days very good.

God stopped with no need to continue; all that was done was done well, and all that was done well would always be well.

God stopped and declared Sabbath very good; a testimony to completion and satisfaction, God left nothing undone or found anything lacking.

God stopped and rested; and instructed those created in God’s image to act in God’s pattern.

Jesus declared Sabbath a day made for Man.

Jesus declared Sabbath a day made for physical healing.

Jesus declared Sabbath a day made for community restoration.

Jesus declared Sabbath a day made for spiritual truth.

Welcome to Sabbath: the day of tasting and seeing the very good of God!
