this might be a rambling post.
last night i threw up, so today im taking it easy.
i seem to always get sick, or something, during government holidays.
today is the start of my 7th year in san antonio.the sabbath year.leviticus 25:1-7
is this something that can be translated to my body? my "land"? is there more to my life that could be termed my "land"? what would it mean at that point to not "sow, " but allow the land to yield what it will, on its own?
i think of sowing as making things happen. being purposeful in all that i do. intentional. this seems counter -culture to all of christianity as i know it.would this entail more of a separation; daily "living" life and daily "spiritual/ evangelistic" life? would it only apply to the actual work at my job, or my extra -curricular activities... and what about the plan to look into school? so yea.
spirituality permeates every aspect of life, so how do i just apply this spiritually?
is this something that is now redeemed, so to speak, because of Christ? if its one of those OT [ old testament} things that is not absolved, but fulfilled because of his coming to die and live again.... what is the new interpretation?
i think this all came to the forefront of my awareness because of my intentionality to rest today.
[hahhha! dont prune, it says. i havent been plucking my eyebrows- does that count?! heheheheh]
Random: Read some of that Leviticus passage. Came to this verse: "Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth [day] of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land."
