Summary
When we are always on the move, it's easy to overlook God's presence in our lives. Sr. Mary Grace, Sr. Ann Immaculée, and Sr. Marie Veritas explore how stillness allows us to encounter God and discover peace amidst our busy days. The Sisters also discuss how idleness and constant busyness can cause restlessness in our souls while true leisure fosters hope.
Snippet from the Show
When we are still, we have a greater capacity to be surprised by God.
This season of Let Love is produced in collaboration with Ascension.
