"Pray Without Ceasing"

"> "Pray without ceasing." So wrote Paul to the people of Thessalonica and to us. From the most trivial task to the greatest accomplishment, we create a prayer, just by offering everything to God, every day, every minute. Being mindful of our call to constant prayer, we become more like the gentle, compassionate Jesus who taught us how we should live. We deliberately choose to become a living tabernacle with Mary, to carry Jesus forward into our hurting world. As we pray, we reflect on ways to accept God's call to service and to trust the graciousness of God's will in our lives. All we have to do is to "pray without ceasing" -- no small grace!
