the beauty of the sabbath
and the reminder of both
all we can accomplish
and all we can only hope for
in our work
is found in
the beauty of the sabbath
rest required
in small part because we need the break
in large part because we need the reminder
that we are joining in the work
not steering it
not guiding it
not forcing it
but joining it
but learning it
but trusting it
and so the sabbath
becomes the reminder
that we are invited
that we are needed
that we are a part,
and only a part
a humble
a grateful
a broken part,
of the magic of the work.
so there is always time to rest
even on sabbath Tuesday mornings.
