Spirituality is not a formula; it's not a test.
It's a relationship.
Spirituality is not about competency; it is about intimacy.
Spirituality is not about perfection; it is about connection.
The way of the spiritual life begins where we are now in the mess of
our lives.
Accepting the reality of our broken, flawed lives is the beginning of
spirituality not because the spiritual life will remove our flaws but
because we let go of seeking perfection and, instead, seek God, the
one who is present in the tangledness of of our lives. Spirituality
is not about being fixed; it is about God being present in the mess
of our unfixedness. -Mike Yaconelli (Messy Spirituality)
