Section LVII

The Lord's Day

Except those hours which are bestowed on others, or on public worship, let it be 3’our endeavour to spend the whole of sacred time in acts of religious improvement. These may be sufficiently varied to prevent weariness or satiety. The narrative and the journal may absorb too many of these precious hours. You may measure your spirituality by the manner in which you habitually spend the Lord’s Day. All eminent Christians have been remarkable for a conscientious use of this holy and blessed rest.
