The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good. (Proverbs 15:3)We know He is in all and through all and yet He still commands our hearts make space for Him. When I stop resisting, I feel His reassurance and all my daily to-dos recede like the tide making space for the shore. Still, even in that lull I sometimes find myself pulling away – wanting to return to the concrete, the solvable, the logical, and the shallow. Sometimes it feels safer there – in the void of distraction.
