What is the Sabbath

The Sabbath is one of most misunderstood Christian ideas. It is a marker of God's provision to His people and their faithfulness to Him. It is more encompassing than we see at first glance. It is God's plan for our lives to allow the Holy Spirit space to operate by not filling every moment with activity. He gives His people the pattern of ceasing from creating, communing with God and making room for eternal things.
