Sunday. For some people, it’s a day to rise and shine early, put on their Sunday best and worship the Lord for all their blessings.

Are you a Sunday bruncher who is making your way through the city’s hippest eateries? Or do you spend the day cooking for a big, family dinner later in the evening?

Sunday is a day of possibilities and dreams. Think about the internal monologues that often run through your head on any given Sunday. If you are anything like me, they go something like this. “Will I get all of my errands done today after church? Maybe I should take the kids to the movies because that dirty laundry will still be there tomorrow. No, I am going to go grocery shopping and then do my meal prep for the week! But, it is raining out, so maybe it’s a good day to be lazy and just watch TV with the kids and take a nap… ”

No matter how you spend your Sunday, be sure to take a moment and enjoy it. Enjoy the day for being the end of a weekend, and the start of a new week. Enjoy the time with family and friends.
