Walking and talking with You yesterday afternoon up to West Falls reminded me of two things:
- I feel most alive when I am expressing myself with intensity, and
- it would be best if I arranged my prayer-walk time to allow for freedom to pray expressively, intently, fervently.
*Correction, 7:19 PM same day: I feel most alive when I am expressing myself with intensity because of love. The point is not the intensity but rather the love—the purposeful regarding of others as at least as important as myself and wanting their good—that sets off the intensity. When I am praying fervently because I have set my face toward love, I feel very alive. And I think it’s the kind of praying that leads to action.
