Psalms

Benedict of Nursia (480-547) first formed his Rule for the abbey he served in Monte Cassino, Italy. 

Last year I grew curious about what this guide contained. And one particular practice caught my attention. It meant the monks of his monasteries lived on a steady diet of Psalms.

They repeated the entire book each week.

Walk by faith

Walk by faith? No matter what’s going on around me?

Somedays, I need to breathe a deep breath. Then take that first step. 

It only takes one in the right direction to focus my heart. 

Leaving behind preconceived to-do lists. Agendas. And turning to the one thing. Abiding in Christ.
