Heaven is why we remain to serve the world around us. Heaven is not escapism. Neither is the Sabbath. Sabbath, if one desired, could easily be utilized as an escape hatch from reality. But it is not an escape from the chaos of our lives; rather, it is finding God in the chaos. The Sabbath is not a clever way to escape responsibility. It is not letting the world spin out of control into the oblivion of chaos. It is, however, taking a day to cease our work of trying to fix or control the world.
