Two podcasts lately have radically challenged and changed my life. The Bible in a Year podcast with Father Mike Schmitz and Logical Bible Study. Both of them I consume thru the Hallow app, a prayer and meditation app. What these two podcasts have done for me is brought daily habit of my scripture readings, prayer and reflection to the forefront of my life. One the regular habit of reading thru the Bible and the other looking deeper into the context and insights of daily readings. They stretch me and I walk away better and more enlightened.
I often think on this quote from St. Augustine "out hearts are restless until they rest in you (God)". My heart is restless, it just is. Sometimes that is clearly my own doing through me diet and media consumption or relationship or business ventures. Yet, the daily well of the Word of God and those that are called to remind, encourage and refresh us to drink from this Well are truly a place i glean rest when my heart is weary.
