Contemplative youth/everyone ministry (part 3)

Jesus lives as if there is a boundless, shameless love present and available within every moment. His life is rooted in an unseen world more spacious and forgiving than the harried world most of us inhabit. Jesus lives a life that is grounded in love. Within the reality of God's love, people and situations appear different to Jesus. His eyes and ears notice things others seem unable to perceive. Through the presence of God's love, Jesus is able to feel and respond to the inner truth of each situation.
Mark Yaconelli
(Contemplative Youth Ministry, chap. 4, Becoming a good receiver)

How would our lives be different if we deliberately practiced receiving God's love into the depths of our being?
