I woke up at 7:30am on my day off… and for the life of me I couldn’t go back to sleep. So it’s 8:30 and I’ve already started the laundry, made brownies and ate brownie batter for breakfast. I’d say that’s being productive, right?:)
I’d planned for today to be a fairly busy day in terms of getting things done around the house… my poor office looks like a bomb exploded, and the guest bedroom and bathrooms need to be cleaned for company tomorrow.
But it’s nice to spend a little bit of time not doing much of anything, right? Laying in bed reading a good book, watching an episode of Friends on TV… just enjoying the time off.
One thing I don’t want to forget is WHY I have this time off. It’s not a normal Friday… it’s Good Friday. And while we seem to deem most Fridays as “good” because the weekend is right around the corner, today’s different. Today we celebrate Jesus & His sacrifice on the cross. And Sunday, we’ll celebrate the fact that He is ALIVE!!!
I want to remember that this weekend, in all I do. I want to soak in the love of Jesus, and the love God sent to me when He sent His son to die.
I hope you do, too. Happy Good Friday, friends … and Happy Easter weekend!
