Practice Practice

I'm reading Dallas Willard. Again.
The connection between the practice of spirituality and the practices of our physical bodies has been of inestimable value to me through the years. Always a fresh challenge. Never a condemning burden.
I need the ongoing challenge. I'm not sure what I do, but somehow I show up in relationships in such a way that no one in my life challenges me. Challenges me to excel, challenges me to grow, challenges me to be more than I am.
Dallas Willard's writingsare that challenge to me. A challenge to step to the plate. Assume the mantel of responsibility for my life. Cease minimizing my part in my choices. A challenge to embrace the life that God extends so freely to me.
