Praying.....

 

For the very many situations in our own lives, in our relationships, in our communities and in our global village that call us to prayer......

Pray much.
Pray always.
For without prayer, there is no faith;
Without faith, there is no love;
Without love, there is no gift of self;
Without the gift of self,
there is no help for people in distress.

(Mother Teresa)

Praying
It doesn’t have to be the blue iris, it could be weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones; just pay attention, then patch a few words together and don’t try to make them elaborate, this isn’t a contest but the doorway into thanks, and a silence in which another voice may speak.
(Mary Oliver, Thirst)
