So much of our daily life’s work is making it to Shabbat. We start prepping for Shabbat by Wednesday afternoon. Shabbat is the focal point and goal and treasure worth striving towards. Hold on we say, Shabbat is coming.

Thank you for enlightening me. Even though I am a Christian, this is something that I would love to incorporate into my family as well.
