Living at the Pace of Pain, Part 2...
Here is one thing I brought out of my summer of pain. I don't want to lose the slowness. Having to move physically slow has caused an inner slowness. I have been afraid to lose that as the Fall season has taken off. For the most part, the inner slowness has remained. I like having my insides revved down while still carrying out my regular responsibilities. I have more peace now than I did before the pain.
I had previously thought that an inner slowness could be one of the defining marks of a Christian. I still believe this is true. People need presence. That can only happen with a slowed inner pace.
