A quote from Catherine McAuley:
Our most important actions are those which relate to God.
Catherine is again so practical and obvious. If our lives are centred in God, then our most important actions are those which relate to God. Now if we are centered in God all of our actions will relate to God. Is that not our goal in life, to be centered in God?
How do we relate to God? Is God friend, lover and companion? Is God judge? Is God something "out there" rather than in here (heart)? Is God a concept or a relationship?
Perhaps our most important action right now is to look at our relationship with God and determine if we need to strengthen it with prayer. Perhaps we need to ask God to come into our life and help us to live our actions in God's name. I think I will take a little time tonight before sleep to have a talk with God and ask for his help to love him more deeply, more completely that I may live his love tomorrow. What about you?
