When we allow something other than God to fully occupy our minds, when we put it first in our thoughts and our concerns, we bring in another "god" before God. We give it power and it starts to rule our life.

We are free. God's grace has already freed us to live in joy and in love. But without consciously embracing this truth, we begin to work to accomplish what is already given, and take ourselves into slavery. Sabbath exists to ensure our freedom from slavery.

Take the small step that is right in front of you now. Don't worry about making a giant step, or big change. If you serve with awareness, devotion, and surrender, God will meet you more than half way and reveal what is next.

We cannot capture happiness for ourselves alone. When we try to grab a hold, it slithers away like a slippery snake. Our purpose is to wake up to divine joy and bring the light of true happiness into the world for all.
