Pray

God has created us to love and to be loved,
and this is the beginning of prayer –
to know that God loves me,
that I have been created for greater things.

We must become holy, not because we want to feel holy,
but because Christ must be able to live his life fully in us.”

You can pray while you work.
Work doesn’t stop prayer and prayer doesn’t stop work.
It requires only that small raising of the mind to Him.

If we really want to pray, we must first learn to listen:
for in the silence of the heart God speaks.

~ Saint Teresa of Calcutta
