It's a bit of some thoughts on the fourth commandment (Sabbath), some personal realizations, and a reflection on an encounter with the creator this past week. Also the audio from Thursday April 15th.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=benbartosik.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2554196&amp;post=352&amp;subd=benbartosik&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
