A reflective Winnie the Pooh once said, “Don’t underestimate the value of doing nothing, or just going along, listening to the things you can’t hear … .” Such is the wisdom of God’s command to pause and rest from our labors. When all of life — work, school, church, and social life — is situated in our homes, the space we used to preserve for rest and separation is diminished, if not nonexistent. Therefore, reimagining Sabbath is important for our spiritual well-being.
Prioritize time for an intentional pause so that your mind, body, and spirit can reconnect with God. Ask yourself, “What should I remember today about God’s gracefulness towards me, my loved ones, and others?” Follow that reflection with a prayer, listen to a hymn, read a favorite biblical passage or other inspirational text, or go out into the world and experience the rhythms of nature, take a walk, sit and breathe.
Whatever you do with that time, commit to being fully present with God. In Sabbath time, whether extended or interrupted, the divine presence becomes palpable and Grace abounds. |
