Rest

May Thy children realize and understand that their rest

            comes from Thee, and that to rest means to sanctify Thy name.  

                                                                 The Afternoon Prayer for the Sabbath

Six days a week we wrestle with the world, wringing profit from the earth; on the Sabbath we especially care for the seed of eternity planted in the soul. The world has our hands, but our soul belongs to Someone Else.
