One thing was forgotten in the “progress” of the Industrial Revolution—Sabbath. Like the sparrow during the time of Mao, creation has no space to rest. The world is too loud. That sparrow, along with the rest of creation, is beginning to fall to the ground in exhaustion. No longer a functioning society, we are an overfunctioning society. We do not cease. Therefore, creation gets no rest. Sabbath is a string holding everything together.
