Are You Really Ready?
God speaks to us in ways we can understand. God can also meet you at any time, no matter how crazy things may seem. You don’t have to have a perfectly organized daily life to experience God. Your spiritual house does not need to be tidy for God to enter. In the Gospels, Jesus often meets people in the midst of their busy lives: Peter mending his nets by the seashore, Matthew sitting at his tax collector’s booth. Just as often he encounters people when they’re at their absolute worst: an adulterous woman about to be stoned, a possessed man not even in his right mind. In each situation God said to these people, busy, stressed out, worried, frightened, “I’m ready to meet you, if you’re ready to meet me.”
—James Martin, SJ
