Play is child’s work … but we are ALL children of God, no matter how old we are. And play can help us notice God … be present with God … hear a God’s voice (not necessarily literally, but in the promptings of our hearts). Play opens the door by setting aside our preoccupations. Tune in today for a short practice in play that you can do today!
