Spiritual Refresher

Every once in a while, I think about Dogma. Not Catholic dogma, but the movie by Kevin Smith. Yes, it's irreverent, but one of the characters in there gives a good description of faith.
"He said that faith is like a glass of water. When you're young, the glass is small, and it's easy to fill up. But the older you get, the bigger the glass gets, and the same amount of liquid doesn't fill it anymore. Periodically, the glass has to be refilled."

I've come to one of those points where I need to refill my glass. I've been thinking about how my spirituality hasn't been going anywhere lately. After a good confession, I've decided to do something about it.
I just so happened to listen to a podcast called The Catholics Next Door with Greg and Jennifer Willits, and Greg was talking about how he was at a sort of stale point, and he picked up this book:
"Spirituality You Can Live With - Stronger faith in 30 days" by Chris Padgett. Amazon Link Here. I decided to order it.
Basically, it's thirty 2 1/2 - 3 page chapters with reflection questions at the end of each chapter. It's a small book, and i've been working through it as the book specifies. I've found that it really does make me think about where I'm standing as far as my faith and how I live it. The book gives you small things to do to increase your faith. It's been nice.
One of the awesomest things about the Catholic faith is that there's TWO THOUSAND YEARS behind it. If you find your spiritual life is in a rut, you don't really have to look far for inspiring documents, new prayers, or new devotions to liven up your spiritual life.
IF you find yourself in a rut, going through the motions, find something to breathe a little more life in your faith life.
