The Yes that is so much greater than our own being

Episode #4

If you believe, as I do, that cultivating your spiritual life is vital to your sense of well-being in the world, vital to your very health then cultivating a sense of Yes in your life is of primary importance. Within us there is an awakening that wants to emerge. Thomas Merton once said we become contemplatives when God discovers itself in us, when God awakens in us. The awakening begins when we say yes and consent to the desire that comes from beyond our will.
