Making Contact Is Holy Work
Connecting with the divine in everything is hard work. I find it difficult to near impossible to always be in touch with the people with whom I am engaged or the awe-inspiring world within which I exist every moment of every day.

When I am in the world I am thinking or doing but not being present.
Making contact with the divine is holy work. It is prayer. If god is in everything, then making contact with other creatures, people, or a rock is an act of connecting to god.
It may be divine, it may be holy, but it sure is a lot of work!
When have you felt connected to another or to the divine? Do you find it easy or difficult to be present for the opportunity of a holy connection?
