Putting a Frame Around the Moments of Our Lives

All spiritual practices are simply pathways to experiencing the enlivening presence of the spirit of god. It's not about what items on a spiritual check list that we need to check off. An anxiety in a practice is your body trying to tell you something, it could be an arrow to a wound. There is a true narrative, and that is the stunning and relentless love god has for you. If a practice runs counter to that narrative, take a pause, take a break, take a breath, and find a practice that reminds you of the love of god instead.
