Meditation

While experiences and other people can challenge us to grow on our journey, our ability to meet those people and experiences with consciousness and intention to grow and serve God is dependent on the ongoing preparation that we do to realize the opportunity in the moment.

No matter how much we train the mind to stay present with our current moment to moment experience, we are not able to pay attention if we don’t want to. Sometimes life is so uncomfortable or painful that we don’t want to pay attention to the present, we want to escape.
