The importance of taking the time to spend quietly with God, neighbor, and self cannot be emphasized enough! Group gatherings are wonderful but the best is one-on-one time, in order to delve deep into communion, both with Our Lord and with others. You have to MAKE the time, it won't just happen. A proverb goes "We cannot see our reflection in running water, it is only in still waters that we are able to." We need to take the time to "Be still and know that I am God." No matter how busy you are, find at the very least 15-20 minutes a day to spend in reflection, in God's presence. If you persevere in doing this you will be greatly rewarded with clarity and peace and will get all your many tasks and obligations done quicker and more efficiently! (May 27, 2019)
