Closing On Sundays

While I was over checking out the posts at Sunday Snippets, I came across this post by Evann. It referenced an e-mail sent by the people at Catholic Vote. (You remember them; they're the ones who put out those great pro-life videos) The e-mail encouraged people to take a rest from the Internet on Sundays.
This got me thinking...
For some time now I have been a bit concerned with the amount of time I spend on this blasted machine. Don't get me wrong, the computer is a wonderful and useful invention that can be used for tremendous good, but as the saying goes, "All things in moderation." I think about the things I could be doing, should be doing instead of staring at this screen.
While I am so grateful that I discovered the blogosphere and am enjoying the writings and comraderie of my new found friends, I think it is time for me to exercise a bit more moderation in this area.
So beginning next Sunday I will be observing a Computer Sabbath. That's right~No Blogging!
What you, my faithful readers will find for a Sunday post is a picture that perhaps represents the Gospel for that day and a prayer. Since RAnn, our hostess for Sunday Snippets puts her post up on Saturday evening, I will do the same.
This is something I have been thinking about for awhile; today's post at Evann's blog was God's way of saying, "OK~ enough with the thinking, now do something and here's what you can do!"
I look forward to discovering the many other fruitful things I can do with Sundays to keep it as our Lord intended.
Because I have trouble doing anything "all or nothing", I will probably allow myself to read the wonderful, faith~filled blogs of all those I follow~but only after sundown as technically that, according to our Jewish ancestors' tradition, begins a new day. (You knew I'd find some way around this :) )
May all of us, no matter how we choose to keep the Lord's Day, choose the things that bring us closer to Him.
God Bless!
