Prayer Continues!

The prayer of Jesus continues in John's Gospel for today, 17:11b-19. A reminder for us to continue our daily prayers. Always keep the communication line with God open. Here is a beautiful image to think about as we enter our time of prayer: "When God sees us coming to him in prayer, he leans his Heart down very low to his little creature, like a father who bends down to listen to his child." This quote is from Saint John Mary Vianney, the patron saint for all the priests of the world. We know that God hears and answers our prayers. Now we have a beautiful image to think about each time we pray, God bending His heart down to listen to his children, to listen to us. Again, let us take Jesus' prayer to heart because he is praying for his disciples then and now. Praying that we will not lose heart, but that our faith and hope will be strong as we continue the mission entrusted to us. May we follow the Lord's example and take the time each day to pray! God Bless You!!!
