Sacred Sabbath
Posted On 07/21/2008 19:05:23 by Tough Grits

This past Sunday was awesome.

It was just about one of the best Sabbath's days that I have enjoyed in a long time.

Not only did I feel the Spirit overwhelmingly during sacrament, but the Spirit was VERY strong during Sunday School and during Relief Society.  I truly left my ward on Sunday feeling greatly inspired and humbly fortified by the love and teachings of Heavenly Father.

Jeffrey R. Holland, “‘A Teacher Come from God’,” Ensign, May 1998, 25
Most people don’t come to church looking merely for a few new gospel facts or to see old friends, though all of that is important. They come seeking a spiritual experience. They want peace. They want their faith fortified and their hope renewed. They want, in short, to be nourished by the good word of God, to be strengthened by the powers of heaven.

How profound are the words of Jeffrey R. Holland.  I can say with complete gratitude and appreciation that I had the very spiritual experience this past Sabbath that Elder Holland spoke of.  My faith was fortified and my hope was renewed.  I was nourished by the good word of God, and I was strengthened by the powers of Heaven.

It was wonderful, and my heart is full.

The goal for the Sabbath is renew our covenants and to feast on the Spirit of Christ. I see, you did both...congrats. Excellent posting! :)

What a great day you had!  I think that often we have times when we are more receptive to the Spirit and recognizing that is part of having that experience again.  I too felt spiritually fed this week at church.  It was an overall great day!!
