Prayer is the natural response of people who know their place in the universe, It is not designed to be a psychological comfort zone, though, surely, comfort it must. Most of all, it is an act of awareness of God and, sitting there in the midst of a praying community, awareness of the rest of the world, as well. – Joan Chittister from Listen with the Heart: Sacred Moments in Everyday Life
May our prayers today include peace for the world and for the well-being of all people.
