When one begins communion with the Father, through seeking the silence, there begins to be a connection made. Each time the silence is sought, the connection is made stronger. Utilizing a hit and miss attitude regarding one's silence practice, is not conducive to building that strong connection.

An analogy might be helpful. Picture, if you will, the gas tank of your car. If, each time you wanted to drive the vehicle, you simply put in a couple of cups of gas, just enough to get you where you wanted to go and no further, that would be all the distance you could expect from your vehicle. However, if you kept the tank more full, going further distances would always beavailable to you. You would not be scraping the bottom of the tank, so to speak.

A full tank is best, a half full tank is certainly better than an empty one. I know you all are striving to [[do the Father's will]]; [[recognize]] that it is [[the Father]]'s will, that you seek [[communion]] with Him. He cannot work in you and through you, unless you [[strengthen]] this connection, to the most optimum benefit of you and the [[brotherhood]]. Try making that [[commitment]] for two weeks, then you be the judge of whether the benefits outweighed the inconvenience.
