space to be

I've been reading a bit on Contemplative practices and thinking more about 'becoming'. One memory I have from my time at Willow Creek was a comment someone once made, "God is infinitely more concerned about who you're becoming than what you're doing". That has stayed with me and helped me focus many times on what the essence of discipleship really is. The image includes a few elements that help me contemplate: an inspired text, good flavourful coffee, blank pages for making my mark, an empty chair (for the Lord) and what you can't pick up from the picture - good music. What type of space have you created this week?
