Match Up with God?

[Frank] Lubauch states that he started [his] minute-to-minute practicing of God's presence by "trying to line up my actions with the will of God about every fifteen minutes or every half hour." Most of us would fall far short of doing so once a week. We excuse ourselves by stating we are too busy with our everyday priorities to move toward a more God-centered life. We feel this minute-by-minute approach is a discipline for full-time religious professionals in our midst, but not for us.
