Sunday - not the last but the first day :)

There was just something about the morning :) A renewed sense of life. A taste of a new beginning perhaps? Beautiful morning, fresh air, people in the park - up and at 'em, revelling in the morning sun, spending quality time with family and friends; songs of joy my mother was playing in the living room, a renewed sense of rejuvenation and hope I felt, morning devotion, a new Sabbath Day and football to come! My u-turn from a week ago could be complete! 2 weeks ago, i spent a week almost bed-ridden completely, suffering from a viral fever. After that one week, i felt as if i had slipped into a coma for a week only to wake up a different person, a lost soul and my life staring at me upside down! This past week had been one of the toughest for me. Countless big problems, my life in tatters... What a turnaround going back to God, seeking Him has helped. Having wonderful mentors also represent big bonuses in my life :) One brief MSN conversation with one of my best friends and mentor helped me begin the turnaround. Thanks for the great advice and confidence in me to turn things around brother!

I agree ... seeing "Sunday" as the first day (like the first step in anything) makes a whole of of difference. And it keeps our humanity (and creatureliness in check) while honouring GOD (our creator) and his non-stop work in our lives and our world.

Thanks Sivin :) I learnt that Sunday is the first and not the last day thing from you ;) You said it once during a sermon long time ago.
