Motives for the Sanctification of Sunday.
  1. God rewards with temporal blessings those who keep holy His day.
  2. The profanation of the Lord's Day is frequently punished with temporal evils, sickness and poverty.
  3. The non-observance of Sunday undermines family life and social relations.


THE PRECEPT OF LABOR
  1. The obligation to work was laid upon mankind by God after the Fall as a penance.
  2. Every individual who can work is bound to work. St. Paul says : " If any man will not work, neither let him eat " (2 Thess. iii. 10).
  3. Every man is bound primarily to perform the work apper taining to his calling or station.
  4. We must not forget God in what we do ; before and during our work we should implore His aid and renew our intention.
  5. Labor obtains a temporal and an eternal recompense, be cause it is a kind of divine worship. The temporal recompense is contentment and earthly happiness.


The Relaxations Permitted vo the Christian.
  1. It is lawful for those who work to seek relaxation, for this is a means of renewing one's strength after one's work is done.
  2. We must not, however, indulge too freely in amusements, and certainly we must eschew all those that are sinful; more over in all our recreations the thought of God must be present to our mind.
