And .....

This goes for almost any TV show or movie you see @ the theatres if we want to get really picky. Some of the best days for opportunities to shoot the movies and shows are on the weekends. Therefore, we need to understand, when we watch television shows and movies, the people who made these shows possible for our enjoyment probably did a good part of their work on Sundays (and Saturdays - (or the minority.)

We could go on forever excluding the things we ought not be doing. For if we look deep enough, we will find reason to leave things alone.

Ex. - What about different book publishing companies. Who's to say that the book you are reading at the present time wasn't printed under a deadline they had to meet say ... Sunday night, so it would be ready to be shipped to the stores on Moday morning.

And .... How many people enjoy the Sunday paper that someone worked on all the way up until deadline when the delivery man (working) delivered to your house or paper booth Sunday morning.

These are just some thoughts of mine. I think even while striving to obey the 4th commandment, we still break it without knowing for the simple fact that we are not omniscient. There will probably always be things that we do not know went into the making of them.

Let us not strive to be legalistic, but to please the Lord with a sincere heart, being faithful with what He has shown and given us.

Basically what I am saying is relax a little, but still be faithful at the same time.
