A recent homily at my home parish included a reference to a book about the Prodigal Son. The deacon talked about reframing questions about God to helping God find me. It made me really think. God surely knows where I am and what I am doing. How could He need help in finding me?
But, the same though might be had about me looking for God. I know where God is, who God is. Why is it so hard to live my life sometimes? Because I am a practical person who needs something to hold onto, I have concluded that for me, the way to help God find me or for me to find God is to pray as often as I possibly can remember to. Bring God with me on my day. I would say that this is something I have always done to some extent, but I am aware in a deeper way that I need to make a concerted effort in this. It seems if I do, my day, my life will go better.
