The Spiritual Life is Not a Life of Quiet Withdrawal

Today’s Life-Line is:
The spiritual life is not a life of quiet withdrawal,
a hothouse growth of artificial ascetic practices beyond
the reach of people living ordinary lives.
It is in the ordinary duties and labors of life
that the Christian can and should develop
his [or her] spiritual union with God.

~ Thomas Merton
