Our spiritual batteries will go dead if we have too much activity without enough prayer and meditation. Meditation is like when you have some device on the recharger. Nothing seems to be going on that you can see. The device just sits there while you wait for it to power up to 100%. In mediation you just sit there, seemingly inactive to anyone who might see you. But you are recharging your spiritual batteries so that you can function sanely in the world. 100% spiritual recharge means that you will be more about doing the next right thing and less about selfishness and egocentricity to include fear, anxiety, restlessness and irritability. You recharge your body with sleep. Recharge your heart with meditation.

I sincerely hope your mission thrives. The Church these days seems overly intent on preaching politics and battering its members with ultimatums and threats instead of focusing on the messages of love, forgiveness and daily sacrifice that convert followers from the inside out and are therefore more effective in the long run!
