Time for a Great Quote from Michael Yaconelli: on Spiritual Growth

“Spiritual growth is not running faster…Spiritual growth happens when we slow our activities down. If we want to meet Jesus, we can’t do it on the run. If we want to stay on the road of faith, we have to hit the brakes, pull over to a rest area, and stop. Christianity is not about inviting Jesus to speed through life with us; it’s about noticing Jesus sitting at the rest stop.” (from Yaconelli’s book Messy Spirituality: God’s Annoying Love for Imperfect Peoplei).
