Today's text from the ESV Study Bible: Numbers 28-30.

As we read Israel's instructions for the sacrifice, convocations, and Sabbath, I wonder if my life exhibits a proper reverence for God's holiness.

I understand that Messiah fulfilled the Law, and therefore perfectly replaced the sacrificial system, but I wonder about God's desire for Sabbath?

Am I keeping God's desired Sabbath?

No, I am not talking about a particular day of the week.  I also understand the Christian celebration of the "Lord's Day" on Sunday.

I wonder if I am keeping God's desire for a Sabbath in my life?  Do I set aside a day that is a pleasing aroma to him?

No, I understand what Christ said about the Sabbath, and his chastising of the Pharisee's.

But, is there a special holy part of my week set aside to provide a pleasing aroma to God?

I am pretty confident that I need to improve this part of my life.

How about you?  How do you bring a pleasing aroma to God on Sabbath?  I would love to hear your thoughts on this.
