We are used to living by moving from the fulfillment of one desire to the next. It seems nearly impossible to imagine a life free from desire. But this is an excellent place to begin. Imagine what it would be like to be free of want, to live in the spontaneous flow of what is.

For a relationship to thrive we must give our time and attention to it and make ourselves available for intimacy, those moments when the light of love is revealed. Our relationship with God is no different. Meditation is the way we cultivate intimacy with God.
