“Not pursuing your “own pleasure” on the Sabbath requires self-discipline. You may have to deny yourself of something you might like. If you choose to delight yourself in the Lord, you will not permit yourself to treat it as any other day. Routine and recreational activities can be done some other time. Think of this: In paying tithing, we return one-tenth of our increase to the Lord. In keeping the Sabbath holy, we reserve one day in seven as His. So it is our privilege to consecrate both money and time to Him who lends us life each day.” SabbathObserving Seventh DayObservance Of The SabbathSacrifice Of Time Book:Accomplishing the Impossible: What God Does, What We Can Do Source: Accomplishing the Impossible: What God Does, What We Can Do
