Practicing the Way - Spiritual Formation

What is it that creates the cravings inside of you? Is it from God, and do we carry in us a deep craving for Christ? The point of our disciplines is to connect our craving with Christ so we begin our journey of spiritual formation by begging God for a great desire for Himself in us. We also must understand that it is God, by His Spirit, who gives us life and only the Spirit of God that can bring growth to our spirit.
