How do we respond concretely to God's
Third Commandment?

The third commandment, "Remember the

Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy," encourages us to
remember that, no matter how busy we are with our
everyday life. God continues to show his love by
remembering us to take time to relax and spend time
with him throughout the day.
Sabbath Day represents us a viewpoint and
direction; it is more than merely a day set aside for
worship. It is peaceful even in the midst of chaos and
unrest; it is aware of God's and other people's presence
even in the midst of a great deal of coming and
departing, rising and falling.
We, Catholics demonstrate the commitment
to honor on the Sabbath day and thank God for
keeping his promise to us. As his followers, we will get
more intimate with our family and to the Lord that
will strengthen our heavenly perspective and the
spiritual fortitude that had inside us.
