“‘Never give up this practice, because it can do you nothing but good,’ he told me. So I began to engage in prayer again, and I have never ceased.” Teresa of Avila, The Book of My Life (1562)
This is the twenty-seventh week of my Friday Prayer Reports.
When I started The Wisdom Project, it was with the hope that I would be able to engage in a more regular prayer life. I wanted to follow Father Barrόn’s advice to Teresa: “Never give up this practice.” My prayer time has brought “nothing but good,” as Father Barrόn suggests, and the prayers have sustained me, especially in times of sadness, difficulty and transition.
I do not always make my goal of doing centering prayer at least four days a week, but I have been praying regularly. With help from the Holy One, I hope to continue on this path without ceasing…Will you join me? We can encourage each other in the effort and give the glory to God.
