Quotes from Richard Baxter’s “The Saints’ Everlasting Rest”.
This meditation is upon your everlasting rest. I would not have you cast off your other meditations; but surely, as Heaven has preeminence in perfection, it should have it also in our meditation. . . .This is a walk to Mount Sion: from the kingdoms of this world to the kingdom of saints; from earth to heaven; from time to eternity. It is walking upon sun, moon, and stars, in the garden and paradise of God.
Give this heavenly contemplation a stated time. . . .Let it be frequent as well. . .to prevent a shyness between God and your soul. Frequent association breeds familiarity, and familiarity increases love and delight.
All things are beautiful and excellent in their season. . .I have always found that the fittest time to meditate for myself is the evening, from sunset to twilight. . .The Lord’s Day is exceedingly seasonable for this exercise. When should we more seasonably contemplate our rest, than on that day of rest which typifies it to us?
What fitter time to converse with our Lord than on the Lord’s day? What fitter time to ascend to heaven than on that on which He arose from earth and fully triumphed over death and hell? The fittest temper for a true Christian, is like John, to “be in the Spirit on Lord’s day.”
Written by Puritan Theologian and Pastor, Richard Baxter, 1615-1691
Good to be Home 
Thanks for this… recently the Lord has been dealing with me to spend more time with Him either in prayer or His Word on His day…. this afternoon I choose to pray. It was a nice quiet time that I miss on any normal day.
Your post goes beautifully with the pictures I just posted praising the Lord. I hope you and your family had a wonderful Lords day.
Michelle
