Starting is the hardest part of any good intention toward creating new rhythms. We begin a little uncertain, doubting we’ll be able to rest because of the work stacking up. But the more we plan the path and organize the journey, the more we will begin to walk our days toward Sabbath instead of away from it. And just like the Israelites, as we practice taking our hands off creation, we begin to believe God is trustworthy while we put faith into action.
