Reflections on the Sabbath

I have been processing the purpose of the Sabbath, how I should spend it, what it's about, that sort of thing.  On Friday night I attended a Sarah Groves concert at a local Seventh Day Adventist church.  Their sabbath starts at sundown on Friday and ends at sundown on Saturday.  Before Sarah was introduced, one of the students welcomed us and wished us a happy Sabbath.  The feeling I got was one of rest, of an invitation to join with others and rest, a reprieve from busy.  There is an unspoken commitment amongst the SDA folks to rest together, corporately.  It seems that most Sunday Sabitarians pick and choose their own rules, very individualistic, no accountability to resting, no intentionality to rest and observe a day for the Lord.  I want the Sabbath to mean something, but I want it to mean something corporately for me and the local Body with whom I worship.  I'm in process, and today I rested.
