After a day of wrest over rest…
followed by a day of finding no rest in work…
this morning… a flickering epiphany…
The work is not about finishing…
the work is about being with You…!
The rest is not about not working…
the rest is about being with You…!
To be where You are…
to be where You call me to Your side…
this is a life of prayer…
Shabbat Shalom…
in rest…
in work…
in living…
in dying…
I’ve been missing the connection with You…
in the work… and in the rest…
I don’t know how I got so skewed…
with work… and rest… and being with You…
but thank You… Lord… for times to remember…
and getting back next to You….
“… Take m yoke upon you, and learn from me,
for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest
for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
—Jesus
