Open Mind and Heart
"We may think of prayer as thoughts or feelings expressed in words. But this is only one expression. . . Prayer is the opening of mind and heart—our whole being—to God, the Ultimate Mystery, beyond thoughts, words, and emotions. Through grace we open our awareness to God whom we know by faith is within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than choosing—closer than consciousness itself. "
Thomas Keating
Practice opening mind and heart to God by spending an hour quietly in the Adoration chapel. Do it more than once and it starts to become a habit … a habit that will serve you for eternity.
