I'm feeling quite inspired about this right now, though I don't want to get too excited, new project energy and all that. But this post from Ann over at A Holy Experience is encouraging and inspiring, lines like this one just hit right to the heart of the matter.
"Rest is not mere idleness but all rest is doing hidden and necessary work — the work of growing strong and nourishing the deep roots."
God commanded rest as the Sabbath, and even though lives may work differently to how they did back with Moses, the idea of Sabbath and rest is still vital to our lives.
Bloom Book Club is also currently working through a book on this subject: Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives by Wayne Muller.
It looks like the need for rest is a common one at the moment.
Would you rest with me a moment?
