Through the second week in Begin Again: Back to School at Restful, we’ve been exploring the theme “Embrace Moderation.”

We practiced finding middle ways, making “to-doable lists,” holding together prayer and work, remembering that both work and rest are spiritual, and finally—receiving the Sabbath as both command and gift.

Today, I want to open the comments to hear from you. Describe one moment this week when you felt the balance of work and rest coming together. Maybe it was only a tiny glimpse or a small moment, but it’s worth savoring!
