Someday

If you are like me and you don't yet have children, from time to time you might find yourself thinking things like: "I'll start that when we have kids." Or, "That will be a good thing to put into practice when our family is larger."

It is so easy to put off a habit, activity, tradition or priority until sometime in the future when we are in a different season of life: when we get married, when we are married longer, when we have a baby, when we have older children, when we have more money, when we have more time.

If you're considering making some changes in your life with regards to setting aside time for the Sabbath, don't get caught in this 'mind-game trap' like I do. There is no ideal time in the future to make changes.

Start today with your own habits, action and attitudes. Then someday, when you have a spouse, or a baby, or more children, or older children, you're life will already be patterned around the things that are important to you.
