Summary

In the midst of the whirlwind of our lives it may seem impossible to make time to focus beyond the noise and activities of daily demands. In this guide, ways of conversing with God in the midst of life and coming to see our day's work as the joyful service of kneeling before all others with Jesus, are explored.

Busyness: Knowing God in the Whirlwind Summary

Busyness: Knowing God in the Whirlwind by R. Paul Stevens

The purpose of this study guide is to seek answers to questions such as how can we learn to live centred in God's loving presence, in a way that allows all our activity to flow from that centre? How can we experience this change of heart that will allow us to know God's presence with us in the midst of the busyness of our lives? The answers are taken from Scripture. We will listen as Jesus calls us to live with eyes wide open to what matters most in life, even as we entrust ourselves to God's care so we can live in the present, where God is with us, providing for us. We will hear the invitation to draw the strength we need for the day from God, the Source of all life. We will learn to open ourselves throughout the day to God as we seek God's wisdom, express our gratitude and begin to rest and rely more deeply in God 's presence with us. We will explore ways of conversing with God in the midst of the whirlwind of life and come to see our day's work as a labour of love for God and as the joyful service of kneeling before all others with Jesus.
