For me I feel as if I have grown. I certainly have obtained a lot more brain knowledge. Also the Lord has taught me the importance of observing "the Lord's day". What I hope He will work in me next is the control of my tongue.

This year, I too have learned the blessings of the Lord's Day. Of course, there was the temptation to be legalistic, so I pray that I will remember that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath.

This may seem like a very obvious questions that every Christian should know the answer to, but what all is involved in "observing the Lord's day". I think most people think of things like attending church, worshipping God, reading Scripture, and resting, but what else is involved. Are there any things that are commonly associated with observing the Sabbath that may not necessarily be involved. For example, most churches have a morning and evening service. If you don't attend both services did you not observe the Sabbath properly? If two, why not three (mid-afternoon)? As Marie hinted at, how do we keep ourselves from becoming legalistic about those things. Honestly, there are occassional Sunday's during the year, where I just don't have the desire to go to church, but I go anyway. I feel on those occaissions there is quite a bit of legalism mixed in with my attendance. I find myself repenting of a hard heart very often.
