Real Risk
“You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life and death to you. It is easy to say you believe a rope to be strong and sound as long as you are merely using it to cord a box.
But suppose you had to hang by the rope over a precipice. Wouldn’t you then first discover how much you really trusted it? The same with people… Only a real risk tests the reality of a belief.”
- C.S. Lewis: A Grief Observed
Sundays
There will not be much posted to the blog on Sundays except verses and info related to the Sabbath. It is a day of rest after all.
“A Sabbath or sabbath is generally a weekly day of rest and/or time of worship that is observed in any of several faiths. The term derives from the Hebrew shabbat (שבת), “to cease”, which was first used in the Biblical account of the seventh day of Creation.
Observation and remembrance of the Sabbath is one of the Ten Commandments (the fourth in the original Jewish, the Eastern Orthodox, and most Protestant traditions, the third in Roman Catholic and Lutheran traditions). Many viewpoints and definitions have arisen over the millennia.”
