could ever have. Jesus invites you to a weekly party—like a special birthday party— just to spend time with Him.
   This special day is called the Sabbath. It’s the time Jesus has set aside to spend with His special friends.

   God says He gave us the Sabbath

to be a “sign” between Him and us (Ezekiel 20:12). It’s sort of like when you share something special between just you and your best friend. Jesus wants to be your best Friend, so each week He gives you His own day—twenty-four hours—to spend with Him. The Sabbath is a special sign between Him and you that He has saved you and is changing your life.

1. The Sabbath is so important to God that He included it in the Ten Commandments. Read the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8-11). What does God ask us to do—and not do—in this commandment? Put D for "do" or N for "not do" for each statement.
   1. Work for six days.
   2. Work on the Sabbath.
   3. Remember the Sabbath.
   4. Keep the Sabbath holy.
   5. Make other people work on the Sabbath.
    Example: N,D,N...

   Isn’t it interesting how people often forget the one commandment that Jesus said to “remember”? Read verse
