Jesus’ prayer guide is the instruction and invitation for all to plug and play. It tells us what to do – but then leaves space for us to do it in our unique way.
If we follow the path of least resistance, we slip into the trance of the tolerable and start trading the effort and anxiety of ‘better’ for the rest and comfort of ‘normal’.
Whether it’s what we’ve seen in His creation, felt through His Spirit, or heard from His Word: Everything in this life is a shadow to get us to go find what’s behind.
In my search for truth, the ’science says’ crew wasn’t leaving room for God – in spite of our instincts; but the ‘God says’ gang wasn’t leaving room for science – in spite of the logic.
