Abiding

Okay, As I read the chapters I come back to abiding. So I would like to open the discussion up about abiding. I know it is what is going to help me know when to give and and when to pray and so forth but what does abiding really look like? How do I do it moment by moment as well as daily? How do I make it pratical? How do I teach it to my children and encourage others to do it without it being some religious foofy word?
