It is how we maintain a constant contact with God.
Miller sees his own battle with chronic fatigue syndrome as an "instructional catastrophe" that set him upon a new vocational path as an explorer of human consciousness. He discusses the four steps of practical faith: releasing guilt, gathering trust, practicing patience, and learning transcendence. He concludes, without slipping into spiritual romanticism, by noting some of the rewards of living this way — stability, security, and fulfillment. Miller's thoughtful treatment of faith is succinct and salutary. He makes it clear why this spiritual practice is such an important part of the sacred adventure of life.
