Here is when Jared gained my full attention, and when our eyes did meet, the genuine love in his eyes melted away my anger, as well as my tears, and I listened intently as Jared continued talking. “When I was in London, I was miserable the entire time I was there. I couldn’t wait to get to work each day to keep my mind preoccupied on something else other than you. and just now, when I watched you walk out of the cafeteria, I realized I very well could lose you all over again, because of my foolish pride.

Taking my seat, Judy said in the true spirit of friendship. “No problem, and I’m glad Jared came to his senses.”

I answered, a bit reflective, and said, being honest about my true feelings in the process, “We both did.”

“This place is really nice, and we should absolutely make a note of it for future reference. Don’t you think so, Jared?”

“I couldn’t think of a better way to enjoy myself than to spend some time alone with my favorite girl. But I do admit when you first mentioned going to the zoo today. I may have agreed at first to please you. But now that we’re outside the norm of all the workaday headaches. This is a really good idea, and I’m really glad I not only agreed with your plans for today. But that you suggested it at all. Plus this food is really good, and I wouldn’t mind making this place our own little getaway.”

A welcome sigh of relief comes as another workweek comes to an end, and in contemplation of such cheerful circumstances. The Lord honored His creation with a day of rest as it is written in Genesis 2:2, 3, And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

The amiable characters Lily and Jared in the suspenseful, romantic novel“Lily Among Thorns” written by the published author, Annette K Mazzone. The couple burden by the woes at present with the swift rising of the “Global Beast Cabal” attempting so fervently afflict mankind with the sin of bondage by initiating the “Mark of the Beast System” as it is written in Revelation 19:20, And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast,  and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Such a regrettable futuristic consequence brings Lily and Jared even closer together, and although at present it is profitable to proceed with caution.

The blessings of a “Day of Rest” is a most welcome opportunity, and it does the heart good for this faithful couple aware of God’s promise blessings to step out from the workaday stressful norm to plan a carefree “Weekend Adventure!”
