Wesleyan Wisdom: Reason and Experience

  One of the things I love the most about the United Methodist Church and the Wesleyan Wisdom that it is built upon, is that it encompasses our reason and our experiences. Our hearts and our heads, good gifts from God, are part of who we are and thus are part of how we experience God.
   Perhaps this is one of the reasons my heart breaks when we devalue someone else's experience, by trying to brush it off or fit it into the terms of our lives and not theirs, it can effect their experience of God. We need to support one another as we go through good and difficult experiences, constantly pointing towards the God who loves us and wants to be with us.
   How do you experience God with your heart and your head?
