Spiritual practices, those seemingly small acts we commit to each day, are the threads that tie our life into a meaningful whole. It is no use having a beautiful shell of an outer life if we have not cared for what really matters.

Inwardly walk through the chapel door of God's omnipresence and experience yourself praying "in" God rather than "to" God. Know that God is nearer than your heartbeat, the essence of your being.

When we turn toward God with a willingness to learn, grace comes to help us. The door of the divine heart opens from within and whatever is needed for God-realization flows into our lives unheeded.

We may want the "quick fix" but the truth is that nothing replaces daily, patient, spiritual practice as the quickest and most efficient way of hastening a life filled with the grace of Spirit, in tune with God's divine plan.

A natural, unforced self-discipline is the fruit of spiritual vision. When we truly understand that what we do to others-other people, other forms of life, our own planet-we do to ourselves, we will naturally and spontaneously act rightly.
