The other side of Sabbath is work, and I really like work. I especially like physical labor. Monday I pounded nails at the cabin, and yesterday I tore out carpet, sanded floors, put at 4'x7' hole in a wall (future closet door), etc... and I enjoy it. Overall my body feels better when it is working. I like the hands on nature of this type of work - but I don't do it for a living.
Should I be following my passion for building? Should I be following my call to the pastorate? Do I like building because my livelihood does not depend on it? Questions in my mind, but I'm not going to take the time to write answers now because I need to go build a wall. But while I build I will mull these questions and more. (another reason I like physical labor - I think well while doing it)
Off to get some sore muscles, and a clear mind.
