Urgent vs: Essential
Intimacy is an essential human need. It’s not spatial but relational. We all know what it’s like to be sitting right next to a person with whom we feel distant and we can feel close to a person who is four thousand miles away.
“If I were to let my life be taken over by what is urgent, I might very well never get around to what is essential” ~HerniNouwen
Intimacy with our Creator — that’s essential. Get closer now:
> Be quiet
> Read
> Pray; talk, listen
> Give thanks
