First day of my sabbatical

Wow!  I’m kind of scared.  What do I do or better yet, what do I not do on a sabbatical.  I’ve been reading “The Rest of God”  And resonate with the thought that a Sabbath dedicates the time to God.  So, during my sabbatical I am trying to be fully present  in my relationship with God. (Not even sure what all the implications of that are.) 

I find myself wrestling with my own arrogance when I wonder if God really can get by without me.  I’d never voice it that way, it sounds so bad, but when I look at my attitude I wonder if that isn’t really what a dark corner of my heart believes.  Father, forgive me.

Anyway, stay tuned.  I may need someone to talk me off the ledge after a couple of weeks.
