The lovely icon of Evelyn Underhill pictured above was written by Tobias Haller.
God is always coming to you in the Sacrament of the Present Moment. Meet and receive Him there with gratitude in that sacrament.Evelyn was a wise and practical mystic whose words resonate today, with her emphasis on balance between the heights and the earthy and her reminder to celebrate and give thanks for the miracle of the Incarnation.

God is acting on your soul all the time, whether you have spiritual sensations or not.

I'm not a believer in the Incarnation but love (and agree with) the term "the sacrament of the present moment." That is one sacrament I can joyfully receive . . . with much gratitude.
