Chris.
The practical balance of True Spirituality should never be treated as something worldly or sinful. I really enjoy the Word of God and the Life of the Holy Spirit. I enjoy public Worship and private Prayer. I endeavor to maintain a good QT every day and also study God's Word. This is a part of True Spirituality. There is however the practical part of True Spirituality, our friends, our meals, the clothes we wear, our daily life. Both sides of the Balance were evidently important to Christ and they should be to us also. Imbalanced spirituality is a sickness that only a choice to change can cure.
