I found that as my family refueled on Sabbath, people commented that they enjoyed being around us. I like to think we were a breath of fresh air for them. When friends ask questions about how we are able to rest, it provides opportunity for good discussions. I have noticed that if people want to incorporate Sabbath into their lives, they assume rules are necessary. I always share our story of simply finding a way to rest that works for us, and sometimes that means taking a rest from rules too. Sabbath is a lifestyle change not a day of change.
