Our connection to God or Christ sometimes becomes conflicting when we try too hard to do this with our literal mind instead of our interperative heart. Since the bomb and subsequent D, I have worked hard to speak and listen with my heart more while I rest my mind. The mind tends to scamper around, easily distracted, and getting hung up on words.
Oh i love that w2s. I still struggle with giving my mind a rest...but I can tell I have more peace when I can come at life from the direction of my hear. Seems to me acceptance without judgment comes more from the heart, and acceptance is the only way we make it sanely through these struggles.
