I just returned from working out at the gym. While on the elliptical I do spiritual readings. I look forward to exercising because it is a time for me to be with God. Then I lift weights. Due to a deeply embedded distaste for numbers, I recite a line of prayer as a mantra with each repetition. There is something special about the relationship between movement and prayer. Our bodies participate as vessels of the Holy Spirit and this rhythm becomes a holy dance. How will I continue to dance with God?
Prayerful movement – yes!!!

I love this photo and will have to try a prayer instead of counting next time I’m doing weights! 🙂
