Facing the Sacred by Bonnie Thurston

"Why are we so unwilling to set aside Sabbath time? Does it have to do with our fear of facing ourselves or of facing "sacred moments"? If I stay busy enough, I can probably avoid both myself and God. But should I? One day each of us will have to face God and give an account of ourselves and our gifts, including our use of time."
