Space for Grace

‘In contemporary society our Adversary majors in three things: noise, hurry and crowds.  If he can keep us engaged in “muchness” and “manyness”, he will rest satisfied’.   We are a distracted and often weary generation, driving ourselves on from one complex set of demands to the next.  There is no time for depth, because we are too busy with other things.  Many of us know that this is not how we want to live, and we long for a way for our lives to be different. But how?

From ‘Celebration of Discipline’ by Richard Foster

Quiet prayer, and centring ourselves in God’s word and silent warmth is a good place to start!
