What are everyone's thoughts on those who need mental rest rather than physical rest on the Lord's day?
For example the accountant who has a mentally demanding job, who is very busy through the week and spends most his week sedentary, comes to Sunday and doesn't need physical rest but needs to rest his mind and not spend time reading etc.
Or for the one who has limited mental strength and can not spend much time reading and needs mental rest.
How do you suggest these people keep the Lord's day holy?
For some, a 3 hour walk would not be resting on the Lord's day, but for these people, 3 hours spent in prayer while walking in nature may be what he needs?
Any practical suggestions?
