The Mindful Farmers Daily Day 259

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, gardens and RetrEat centre on day 39 of our new lock down. It is another Sunday and you all know my views on Sundays and rest. In the story of Genesis it tells us that God created not just the world and all that is in it but also rest, and he commanded us to take rest. The Jewish religion teaches us that the Sabbath equalizes the rich and the poor because for one day at least they are free from the constraints of work and every day life. Their Sabbath also creates time to evaluate all work. It also gives us time to contemplate and meditate on the meaning of life. Today, the Sabbath and Sunday is more important than ever because we are now locked into a pandemic that is fraying us all at the edges and our society is in danger of over thinking and over working ourselves into illness. It is now time for us all on this day to lie down in green pastures of Mother Earth where we can listen to the dappling of quiet waters and restore our souls. Have a beautiful, mindful healing and peaceful Sunday. Continue to pray, bless and power healing to each other and wear your beautiful Sunday smile.
