Right action and contemplative thinking are important, but it is the love in our hearts for Jesus that keeps us close to him. To love God with our whole self is to pay careful attention to how each of our faculties are being redeemed by the word spoken to our souls, calling us Beloved. Contemplative thinking opens us up to possibilities beyond the conventional, right action helps us embody the truth, and emotional attachment binds us in the heart so devotion can sustain the journey.
