Untethered, adrift, scattered, distracted. Have you ever felt like you were flying through life, too busy to touch down? Or like you were being pulled in too many directions at the same time, consumed by doing with no time for being? God calls us to be grounded: to root down, remember that we are created good, to be planted in the here and now, and to give thanks for what is.
Come and experience the joy of being grounded and pick up practices for grounding yourself in God's presence each and every ordinary day.
