discipline

“In the spiritual life, the word 'discipline' means 'the effort

to create some space in which God can act'.

Discipline means to prevent everything in your life

from being filled up.

Discipline means that somewhere you're not occupied,

and certainly not preoccupied…

to create that space in which something can happen

that you hadn't planned or counted on.”

-Henri Nouwen

so discipline doesn’t have to be some harsh attempt

at getting it right?  good news!
