Finding God Amid Life's Rush and Tangle
Story★★★★“How is the silent peace and reality of God to come to us who need it so dreadfully; and how are we to go to Him in this distracting rush and tangle of things which make our daily lives?” Evelyn Underhill put that question to us at an unforgettable service in my church in Birmingham some years ago, and it is even more pertinent today than when it was first spoken. Her answer to it is pertinent too. “I think,” she said, “the answer to the problem is, that we have so to learn God, that the rush and tangle itself becomes our meeting-place with Him, and the very substance of a life of prayer.”
The point
Evelyn Underhill teaches that the 'rush and tangle' of daily life, rather than quiet retreat, can become our meeting place with God and the substance of prayer.
