Continuous Worship in the Midst of Living


I absolutely loved these excerpts from Thomas Kelly. He explains a genuine internal spirituality very well. He hits on the fact that we should have our minds constantly focused on God and we should continuously be in prayer throughout the day, but we should also be engaging in our normal day to day routine. Like we should be interactive and doing everything, but in our minds and hearts be dwelling with the Lord. “Walk and talk and work and laugh with your friends. But behind the scenes, keep up the life of simple prayer and inward worship”. Kelly also focuses on how this is a practice that we have to get used to. “A practicing Christian must above all be one who practices the perpetual return of the soul into the inner sanctuary”. He goes on to talk about how it’s hard at first to get used to this mindset and that we will mess up, but we just have to continue going back to God. We need to ask for forgiveness and then try again.
