Wise Training

I have been reading a great book recently and thought this quote was very practical and helped me personally with my crazy, busy, on the go life.  "Our primary task is not to calculate how many verses of Scripture we read or how many minutes we spend in prayer.  Our task is to use these activities to create opportunities for God to work.  Then what happens is up to Him.  We just put up sails:  'The wind blows where it chooses....'  Wise training respects our unique temperament and gifts.  There is good news here:  Whatever your natural temperament may  be, it is not a barrier to your spiritual growth."  Life You've Always Wanted by John Ortberg
