Why I Love Sundays

Monday starts off the week, and we become motivated to do our tasks before the end of the week comes. Friday makes you aware that the the business for the week is almost over, and if you have things to do that need to be done before the weekend comes, you must do them right away! Saturday has a nice feel to it, it is the beginning of the weekend, and you might feel relaxed and do things that you want to do that you were not able to do during the week, but Sunday, Sunday is special......



Sunday is a day of relaxation for many, the day to prepare yourself mentally and physically before the new week begins. Many people have quiet times of reflection, they read the paper, or watch their favorite tv show. Some enjoy the outdoors, they go out to play, they go to the mall to shop, or to watch a movie. There are many things that can be done on Sunday, including staying in and sleeping all day long!



Why is Sunday so special to a christian? Because Our Lord, Jesus Christ, rose from the dead on this day, with all the power and authority given to HIm by His Father, The Lord Almighty, and that began the church age, healing and deliverance, salvation and redemption, love and mercy!



If Jesus Christ has not risen from the dead on that Sunday Morning, then I would have no hope, I would not know what true love or mercy is, I would not rise in the morning with a song in my heart and a loving greeting for my Father and my God, to feel the loving touch of His love in my heart.



Not Even the beauty of this world or the awesome majesty of the stars in the sky would be able to fill the emptyness of my heart. The endless struggle to live on planet earth, to get something of value before I die, would be a desperate act. I would see people as obstacles to conquer instead of having a desire to love and care for them. No amount of sex, drugs, alcohol, or things that I acquired could fill that hole, that void within my heart, but since there would be nothing else to fill that hole, because Jesus Christ had not risen from the dead to save me for Himself, I would party hard and do everything my heart desired, because I would know that this is all that I would have to look forward to, and then death and eternal separation for all those things that I put so much effort into possessing. Yes, that would be life without purpose or hope.

But, thanks be to God, Jesus Christ did rise from the grave that sweet Sunday Morning, and He did sacrifice Himself and died on the cross of Calvary for your sins and for mine. His atonement for my sins has set me free from sin and eternal death! I do have a future, and I will live with my Savior, Jesus Christ, in the presence of Father God, forever and ever with the Holy Spirit forever present in my heart! Thank you Jesus, for your ever loving grace and mercy, there is no one like you, and I will cherish you forever and ever! Hallelujah!!



That is why I love Sundays, because I take time to remember what He has done for me, and I remember to rest in Him, and to be led by Him in the spirit; Sunday is our day to praise His name and to give Him all the Honor, and the Glory, and the Praise. We are His children, and He is our Father forever....Amen!

If you would like to celebrate Sundays forever and ever in this way, then speak aloud this Prayer of Salvation:

Prayer of Salvation



Lord,



I repent for trying to be master of my own life. I change my mind about who I want to be in charge of my life. I turn from my useless and unproductive thoughts that I am the center of my universe and choose to believe in the living God who created everything, including me (Acts 14:15). I have lived without a purpose but now I will live to hear and obey You, God (Jn. 5:19, 20,30).



I confess with my lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. I believe that God so loved the world He sent His only Son Jesus to shed His blood to wash away the barrier of sin (Jn. 3:16)



I receive You, Jesus as MY Lord and Savior (Jn. 1:11,12).



I welcome You, Holy Spirit, into my life to rescue and empower me and to restore me to intimacy with my heavenly Father (Acts 2:38).



If you just confessed this prayer, you are saved! I welcome you into the family my (brother/sister) I pray for peace, joy, and happiness in your life as you allow the Lord to love you and bless you and give you assurance of everlasting life with Him forever and ever......PRAISE GOD!



May the Lord keep you and Bless you this day....AMEN
