What have I missed today?

| No Comments
greenshoot.jpgVery simply, today, a wonderful thought-provoking quotation (thanks to Paul on the Prodigal Kiwi blog) from Ignatius of Loyola (founder of the Jesuits in the 1500's):

...insisting on God's presence in all things, denied a group of Jesuit students in his day, permission to prolong their morning meditation time. Instead he reminded them that rather than spending lengthy time in prayer:

"...they should strive to seek the presence of God in all things - for instance, in association with others, in walking, looking, tasting, hearing, thinking, indeed, in all that they do. It is certain", he said, "that the majesty of God's presence, activity, and essence" is in all of these things.

What have I missed today in my busy-ness (or even in my too-long-praying... if only!) of the majesty of God's presence, activity and essence in the world I've tramped through at high speed?
