Our discussion this week was centered primarily around the "Second Conversation". There was just so much in there with different items/issues mentioned like - having a wandering mind during prayer; exercising control over what thoughts we let our minds linger on; dealing with the lack a sense of worthiness vs. surrender to grace and love and doing the best you can, knowing that that is enough.

We talked a bit on the question of the habits/actions we are supposed to practice as Christians and whether or not the love we have for Christ movtivates us to do those things and so they are not so difficult to do; or if we practice those things first (even if we are not really loving the discipline of doing so) and as we do those things in obedience to Christ, His love grows in us and it becomes less of something we "have" to do and more of something we want to do.

Readings for this week:
Third and Fourth Conversations from Practice of the Presence of God
A.M. Scripture - Psalm 19
P.M. Scripture - Psalm 24

I thought I'd post the verse below from the morning passage for this week below as a meditation for the week:

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer

Grace & peace,
Deji.
