    In Search of Awe and Wonder

    August 21, 2017January 1, 2018

    I shielded my eyes from the blaze of the sun, and let my elbow rest against the rough wood of the picnic table top. It was unbearably hot, a summer reality in North Carolina that I am still growing accustomed to. I bat at the pesky gnats swarming around my forehead and tilted my head

    • I’ve had to learn to rest. And the learning hasn’t always been pretty. But, have you ever thought about how radical it is that Christ rose from the dead while the disciples were resting? During the night, while they slept in their homes, discouraged and likely distrusting, their salvation was gained for them. In God’s way of mystery and power He overcame the sting of death while His people rested. There was no more poignant way to show us that we did no work, offered no righteousness, brought no virtue to the table - He truly paid it all. And this is what we commemorate each week as we Sabbath. We remind ourselves that some of the work of obedience is rest. We can work our fingers to the bone, stay awake late into the night, and toil seemingly endlessly - but our Father is not more pleased. Because He cannot be more pleased with us than He is with us in Christ. And in this joy and resurrection hope, we rest in His finished work. Happy sabbath, y’all. 🧡
    • ✨G I V E A W A Y✨ It’s another giveaway day! For the 12 Days of Theological Books Giveaway, I’m sharing with you some of my favorite reads from this last year! AND today’s book is no exception. Today I’m giving away Humble Roots by @hannah_._anderson (and yesterday’s giveaway for her first boon Made for More is still open!) It’s seems just so appropriate to give this book away today, since it is a book God used to teach me so much about sabbath. This book ripped into me last year, revealing so much of my self-reliance and pride, and gently reminding me that as humans we have significant limitations. It’s a reminder that God alone is God, and that He has called us to serve Him with the humble frame He has given us. It’s a joy to read. Don’t miss it!

I still remember where I was when I read the first chapter - on the elliptical at the gym, calling out YES! aloud and trying underline every page with a wobbly hand.
