Every Moment Holy

Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee. Deuteronomy 5:12

“We should jealously guard the edges of the Sabbath. Remember that every moment is consecrated, holy time. Whenever it is possible, employers should give their workers the hours from Friday noon until the beginning of the Sabbath. Give them time for preparation, that they may welcome the Lord’s day with quietness of mind.”

—Counsels for the Church, p. 263

Sabbath Tip
Cutting minutes off either end of the Sabbath isn’t keeping it holy. Instead, try spending a few moments preparing your heart before it begins. You might say a prayer to thank God for His blessings, read a passage of Scripture, or gather with other family members for worship. In whatever way you welcome the Sabbath, ask the Lord to help you guard this sacred time.
