I always used to think that Sundays were the end of every week. I still believe that to a point, i guess. It never quite made sense to me that you technically have a day off before you start the week, 5 days of work, and then another day to rest. It just made sense, 5 days on and 2 days off.
Then you get to the religion part. I thought it was that you go through the week and confess everything bad that you did throughout the week. So you (or me rather)ultimately feel bad that we have not done as well as we wanted to do during the past week. I realized today that my Sunday mentality, being the end of the week, is kinda a crappy way to view Sundays.
What I realized today is that Sundays are a perfect way to START our weeks.
We worship the Lord, and get an idea how to adjust our lives to live in Gods commandments, hopefully in LOVE. This hopefully will energize us and re-viltalize us, so we can live our lives week by week with LOVE and JOY. That way we are pumped up for serving God rather than feeling bad for what we did wrong. Just a thought.

This rules. I honestly never thought about the week being broken up so that we START each week with God.
What a perfect thought
Travis,
I finally had a moment to read Moment in the Mind's current blogs! I loved this one. I loved them all. Keep on writing your thoughts since you state them so clearly, and ALL your blogs make perfect sense to me. I think you'd make a fabulous school counselor. You'd be an excellent role model for high school kids. Or maybe teach religion! You'd rock- but it don't pay in paper money- just spiritual dollars. I think you might have a book inside wanting to come out.
Love Auntie julie
