In the Christian liturgical calendar
this is the day between: The day between the colossal failure of
Friday and the magnificent triumph of Sunday.
It is suffused with the light of
Sabbath, the affirmation of God: It is finished. It is good. These
words apply to the cosmos, they apply especially to us. God the
Father says to us: I am pleased with you. You have done enough. God
the Mother says to us: you are beautiful, what you have made is
beautiful. God the Friend says to us: My heart has found sweet rest
with you.
This Sabbath between affirms all this
with proof, without demonstration. It overflows with the word of God:
It is finished. It is good.
Tomorrow, we will enter again into our
work of making God's words visible in the world.
