Comments on: What Can’t Mormons Do? Part 3: The Sabbath Day http://www.whatdomormonsbelieve.com/2008/11/what-mormons-cant-do-part-iii-the-sabbath-day/ "We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men." -Joseph Smith Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:35:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: the Danosaur http://www.whatdomormonsbelieve.com/2008/11/what-mormons-cant-do-part-iii-the-sabbath-day/comment-page-1/#comment-242 the Danosaur Mon, 03 Nov 2008 18:20:00 +0000 http://whatdomormonsbelieve.com/?p=70#comment-242 Thanks Dave. I too can attest that keeping the Sabbath has counterintuitive benefits. I also feel rejuvinated physically and spiritually from my Sundays away from the regular week. <br/><br/>I think this is one of those commandments that demonstrates that the Lord knows us better than we know ourselves; that is, he knows we <i>need</i> the Sabbath, not only as a time to draw closer to him, but also for our own well-being. Though others may see it as restrictive, I find it incredibly liberating.<br/><br/>The world is missing out. Thanks Dave. I too can attest that keeping the Sabbath has counterintuitive benefits.
