I am grateful for the Sabbath, a day of rest. As an adult, especially when we have young children it is not a day of rest, as in sleep or ease. As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, it is often not a day of rest, as in nothing to do. Meetings, Family History, visiting others, preparing lessons and talks... yet the more I keep the day Holy, more devoted to being about my Father's work, my Saviors work, I do reach Monday feeling rested, renewed, energized and ready for a new week.
I am grateful for all the learning opportunities I have had as part of the Lord's Church. Opportunities to serve in a multitude of callings has allowed me to not only learn more about the Gospel and my Savior, but also skills like organizing, speaking, teaching, social skills (those I still am extra weak in but better than before), homemaking skills... Most of my friends can also be traced to my associations with Church.
I am grateful for a Prophet to teach and warn us.
I am grateful for a Savior who instituted the Sacrament that I might partake and start a new each and every week and try again and again and again.
I am grateful for Sunday!
