Learning in the Desert

God taught the people as they wandered in the desert. 

Work hard,
Be good stewards of the soil and produce.
Plan now to set aside a significant portion of your labors and wealth for others.

Rest regularly, 
Be good stewards of your body and soul.
Plan now to assure that the oppressed, children of the oppressed, the immigrant, and beasts of burden are refreshed.

Learn these lessons,
Work hard. Share much. Rest and make it possible for others to rest as well. 
Bring your best to God’s vision. These are the gifts of God, Amen.
