Prayer, the Breath of Life:
Prayer is the breathing of the spiritual life. No prayer, no life. Prayer is the way we speak to God, as well as the way he communicates with us.…We all need to pray, and pray better. A person who does not seek to grow in the life of prayer will, sooner or later, not pray at all.
“Are We Worthy of Jesus?”:
Jesus asserts that to be “worthy” of Him, we should not be too preoccupied with trying to avoid the pains of life e.g. illness, strained relationships etc. Instead, we should try to unite our sufferings to Christ’s Cross by offering our pains for the good of others e.g. for their conversion etc.

May Mary, the Queen of Mount Carmel, help every Christian to meet God in the silence of prayer.
