Remembering brother Lawrence's teachings while washing the dishes is good idea 💡 I wish I could focus in like he did, but inevitably fail after a week. Perhaps another try would work. Maybe persistent effort will make a new habit 🤔 Though your message reminds me to do my morning offering 🤦‍♂️

I read "The Practice the Presence of God" years ago. This is my reminder that I need to read it again.

It's a great one to keep in rotation. I think about Brother Lawrence almost every time I do the dishes.

I’m glad it helps. And you greatly help encourage me as well. I appreciate your thoughts.

I’ll let you in on something I wish I’d discovered sooner that you’re right on the edge of… you’re always going to fail. Maybe today, next week, a month or years from now… it’s always gonna happen.

But here’s the key that unlocked the door for me…

Your growth isn’t revealed in a lack of failing, but how little you think of it when you do, and how quickly you pick up again.
