When we attempt to practice surrender we discover how fallible we are, how humanly inept in our ability to release ego's insistence on being separate, and yet we also discover that we cannot stop God from breaking down the barriers to love. Good news!

Most people imagine their career as their real work and spiritual practice as an adjunct. Our propensity toward the activity of work is often driven by desires that bind the soul. See your spiritual practice as your real work.
