We must not be led to belive that the disciplines are for spiritual giants and hence beyond our reach, or for contemplatives who devote all their time to prayer and meditation.
Far from it. God intends the disciplines of the spiritual life to be for ordinary human beings; people who have jobs, who care for children, who must wash dishes and mow lawns.
In fact, the disciplines are best exercised in the midst of our normal daily activities.
J. Oswald Sanders
