After Leviticus 1:1-4
Work is that
five-day thing,
left behind
on the weekend
when we rest,
when we relax,
when we worship.
But not left
behind exactly,
because we’re
instructed to bring
our work, the fruits
of our work,
to worship, given
as an offering
to the Lord.
Knowing it is
an offering
changes what
we understand
work to be.
