It’s Sabbath Saturday & Wayne Muller says it best…
It’s Sabbath Saturday. ((this was written on Friday))
I am not here.
I am not Blogging.
I am not Twittering.
I am not Texting.
I am not on Email.
I am resting.
You probably should too.
See you on Sunday.
Until then…This…
…I make a plea for renewed Sabbath-keeping. As a nation, we cannot live like this, endlessly rushing about in a desperate frenzy, never stopping to enjoy the blessings of family and friends, unable to taste the fruits of life. We can change society by beginning a quiet revolution of change in ourselves and our families. Let us take a collective breath, rest, pray, meditate, walk, sing, eat and take time to share the unhurried company of those we love. Let us, for just one day, cease our desperate striving for more, and instead taste the blessings we have already been given, and give thanks.
- Wayne Muller, “Sabbath: Remembering the Sacred Rhythm of Rest and Delight”
