When I feel my spiritual connection weakening, I find it helpful to reinstate lapsed devotional practices.
I don’t know how it happens — the veering away of practices that ground me —
but it does.
I get busy,
or overwhelmed
and feel like I can’t spare the time.
Sometimes I need to escape the truths that present themselves so clearly when I’m in dialogue prayer
and distract myself with social events,
movies,
even chores.
Walking in nature and paying close attention to creation is one of the devotional practices I cherish.
Yet even that can drift to the wayside. Perhaps it’s time to reconnect…

Take a walk with me by reading my daily devotional book, Meditations on Mendocino by Sondra Sula. Available on Amazon in paperback or Kindle versions.
If you’d prefer a daily river walk, Reflections on the Fox River and Beyond by Sondra Sula, might just be the book for you.
