"And on a whirling world, in the middle of the blur, you just hold a pause —at the end of one smeared moment —and before the next, holding the moments right to their very end with the full length of all your attention, these lingering, weighted pauses, heavy with the full weight of His glory, pauses wedging holy white space between letters, notes, minutes, lest you miss the meaning and sense and joy in everything. The practice of the pauses to give repeating thanks to God, this practice of practical divinity, that slows all these spinning days into one unexpected song."
