Enduring Word Bible- You Shall Rest

Enduring Word Bible-#25

You Shall Rest

Exodus 23:12

My worshipping community 

has been reviewing the topic of 

Working the Sacred in the Ordinary.

The reading for this week was about

Sabbath.

"Six days you shall do your work, 

but on the seventh day you shall rest..."

so that all those around you can rest too.

Oh, I struggle with this.

 I find that when I do take "time off",

I so enjoy a day to play and move 

throughout the hours without an agenda.

It is recreational as well as soul restorative.

It may not be on Sunday-

as that is often a "work day"

 in this season of life.

But, I hunt and chase those hours 

to spend reading and praying 

in the margins of my Bible.
Or reading.

Or catching up with the practices 

that mark and highlight the journey

 and shine the light on God's faithfulness.

So good... because He is good.
