The photo is of the Chapel at Worlds End State Park in Pennsylvania. There is a babbling brook down the embankment behind the pulpit. I think it would be an ideal place to observe the Sabbath. In Old Testament times the Sabbath represented the seventh day on which God rested after creating the world and His people were to observe it by not working on that day. When Jesus was on earth he observed the Sabbath in spirit rather than in law for he healed the sick on the Sabbath and was called out for it. Most Christian denominations observe the Sabbath now on the day that Jesus was resurrected--a Sunday--by attending a church service. But in our modern society the rest of the day often is not spent in rest. Sundays for Christians should be a reminder that the first day of the week is the day in which God began creating the world as well as the day Jesus was raised from the dead, making it possible for the Spirit of God to live in man. God is within me and through Him I shall find my rest as I call upon Him.
