Sabbath

“The meaning of the Sabbath is to celebrate time rather than space. Six days a week we live under the tyranny of things of space; on the Sabbath we try to become attuned to holiness in time. It is a day on which we are called upon to share in what is eternal in time, to turn from the results of creation to the mystery of creation; from the world of creation to the creation of the world.

Spiritual life begins to decay when we fail to sense the grandeur of what is eternal in time.

The higher goal of spiritual living is not to amass a wealth of information, but to face sacred moments.”
~Abraham Heschel
