Keep the Sabbath Day Holy


This is a picture of Jonathan and Elder Bandiacky.  Jonathan gave an awesome testimony today that I wanted to always remember.  He said that he signed up to play soccer and he was so excited.  He went to his first practice and his coach gave them their game schedule.  When he looked at it he saw that most of their games were scheduled for Sundays.  So he told his coach right then, that he would not be playing at any of the games that were held on Sunday.  His coach was very surprised and asked him why not.  Jonathan said that Sunday was the day they went to church.  His coach said that he could choose any time to go to church, and that he could still have time to play his game.  Jonathan then told him that all day on Sunday, is the Lord's day, and he wanted to keep the Lord's day sacred.  His coach was pretty amazed at his announcement but said that was ok, he could still practice and play the other games that were not scheduled on Sunday.
At the next practice, his coach came up to him smiling, and said that he had reworked the schedule and that now all the games were going to be on Saturday.  
This was a great testimony to Jonathan and his family, that The Lord blesses us when we obey his commandments.
