During lent I like to take on a practice or a discipline that helps me feel closer to God. This year I decided to read a devotional every day. I read d365.org. I take a minute on the train into work, or while I’m in the pick-up lane for one of the kids’ activities. I pause, think, read, pray and go. Those are the 5 steps of my devotional. It doesn’t take a lot of time, and the insights are pretty simple- but there is something about stopping, and reading scripture that makes me feel closer to God all day.
Often I think about my spiritual life as a journey, and just like any journey, sometimes I feel focused and clear about where I’m headed, and sometimes I can feel a little lost. My devotion helps me feel focused- it’s like taking a minute to check the directions. It’s simple, but I end up feeling more connected to God all day.
