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.

Evidences - Faith:

In today's Gospel, Jesus laments the lack of belief in Him and His Teachings. The evidences of God’s almighty power in the wonder of the human person, the world, the universe and our experiences of 'miracles' are overwhelming. Yet, why do we still turn away from His Truth that offers eternal life?

==================================================================

There is a human splendor and a celestial splendor. The splendor that can be attained on earth is temporary and limited, while that of heaven lasts forever, which will be shown when the corruptible becomes incorruptible and the mortal, immortal.

- Saint Basil the Great
