Love turns work into rest. - Saint Teresa of Avila
Every time there is significant growth in our spiritual development all our relationships change -- to God, to ourselves, to other people, and to all creation. We become a new person, as did Mary of Bethany at the feet of Jesus. From this arises a new kind of activity which might be called "contemplative service." Contemplative service is service that comes from the experience of the divine indwelling -- from the Spirit living and at work within us. It is God in us serving God in others.
Ephesians 6:7
Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord...
