The Model Prayer: Our Father |
|
Augustine said, “Prayer calms and purifies the heart and makes it more capacious for receiving the Divine gifts. God is always ready to give us His light, but we are not always ready to receive it. By prayer we open channels through which blessings, which are always ready, may flow.”
Have you ever caught yourself trying to impress others by the way you pray or what you say to God?
Prayer is not a means of impressing other people. What a tragedy when communion with God is reduced to carnal religious egotism.
