An Experiment in Sabbath: Resting

In a culture dominated by busyness, the Christian
practice of Sabbath cultivates an important and counter-cultural
rhythm orienting our whole lives around the presence and kingdom
of God. A Sabbath rhythm is woven into the fabric of
creation and creates space for connecting with God,
ourselves, and one another. When we intentionally rest from work,
productivity, and striving, we open ourselves to God's profound
and personal love. What if a regular rhythm of resting from
all the ways we try to earn love is the best way to learn and
know deep in our souls that God loves us?


This week, we specifically considered the resting component of a
Sabbath practice. (We'll talk about the connecting component next
week.) How might our ceasing of work, productivity, and
striving make space for us to know how deeply we are loved?
