Doing the most important thing...

Dear Friends,

Today a friend told me about how she realized - as if for the first time - how important her spiritual practice is to her life. She gets up early every day to pray and meditate for at least an hour before she begins the rest of her activities. On the days she gets up later, she has been allowing her time of prayer and meditation to slip away, as if she doesn't have the time.

What she has realized is that life goes much better when she makes the time for prayer and meditation, daily. We know we can't go without eating or sleeping or taking a shower. We know that if we want to nourish a relationship with our partner, we have to take time to connect to them.

Make time for the most important thing. Nourish your spirit with daily practice.

Warmly,
meb
