Something to mull over
“A lot of religious folks think they can help by insisting how important it is to “just believe”, as if belief were something one could conjure by force of will. Simply wanting to believe doesn’t work. The thing that “works” is spiritual discipline.
Go to church. Take communion. Act like you believe and maybe, at long last, you will. Move your feet and your heart will catch up.”
