I've come to a new understanding of the Sabbath because of a month-long study of it at church. I thought I knew what it meant and looked like, but I've been humbled by the things I've learned.
I've also been struck by my need for daily Sabbath. While Sabbath is about resting, my busyness has become more acute. My restlessness has increased. My need to slow down is more apparent now than ever before.
In whatever form it takes, I'm trying to set aside my work for one day each weekend and just be. Be in His presence. Be in the beauty of His creation. Trying...success is a whole other discussion.
