Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do...

I had lunch with a good friend of mine today. Phil took me to a local place and asked me some pretty straight forward questions. They were questions that I've been asking myself. And when he asked them, though some of the answers were embarrassing, I actually felt relieved; Relieved that I could put my stuff out on the table with a man who didn't even flinch when I shared those answers. Instead he said that he had been where I am. He just shared his experience and prayed for me.

At some point in the conversation he asked about my schedule lately. He said, "You know, sometimes sleeping is the most spiritual thing you can do."

Permission granted. I headed home and took a nap with me daughter. I think I'm feeling a little better too.

Ben, when can we do lunch? Would love to connect soon. Reading your blog more regularly has helped me stay more connected, but I miss your pretty face :-)!
