Prayer for Busy People
Are you looking for a way to incorporate prayer in your life? Do you often find that there is just not enough time? This series will suggest different ways in which you can incorporate prayer into your life in small but meaningful ways that do not take too long. This week we pray with a selection from one of the readings from each day’s Mass. (The full reading citation is provided for your reference).
- Read each day’s scripture excerpt in the morning and spend 1-2 minutes letting the words sink in. Pray that you may carry these words throughout your day.
- At the end of the day, read the excerpt again, and spend 1-2 minutes letting the words sink in. Think about any insights you have about how this passage relates to your day or your life. Thank God for these words and insights.
