LIFE AT THE CIRCUS

'LIFE AT THE CIRCUS - PAINTING THE THOWN RED - was the title of the talk given by Lucy Winkett the rector at St James Piccadilly. She spoke of the 'desert' and in our fast lane life-style we need to get into the desert for our own spiritual sanity.
She spoke of 4 essential practices:
1) Silence - a waiting place we wait on the Lord.
2) Solitude -  (not loneliness) withholding interior content.
3) Fleeing - (not escaping) running for your live, fleeing towards yourself and God. Fleeing from              mediocracy.
4) Staying - (not feeling confined) focusing on the now. Real life is now with these people.

With these practices we will be able to be ourselves and not fantasies of ourselves.
