My mom always tells me that when you hear something more than once, that’s God talking to you.
More than a few people have asked me recently, “Do you set aside time in your day to pray or mediate?”
“Yes,” I reply. “I pray a novena to St. Therese as I jog around the campus of the Naval Academy, or I talk to God while I’m swimming laps.”
“That doesn’t count,” some have replied.
“Why?”
“Because you need to be still in order to hear what God’s saying to you.”
