To walk with God's presence felt continually in one's heart is to walk with un ceasing prayer. There are many Christian virtues which we should follow, e.g., giving alms, showing mercy, being gentle, not arguing, etc. Prayer should be our first, middle and final endeavor as Orthodox. From the moment of waking, to the time of sleeping, we should strive not to let prayer leave our hearts. If we have prayer in our hearts continuously, then we stand always before God and all other.
Christian virtues are then easy to fulfill.
We are like birds ever striving to fly to God and dwell in His unutterably joyful Kingdom. The following are but a few of the teachings that we have been given about prayer and the reading of Divinely inspired books as ex pounded by Scriptures and the Holy Fathers- in particular, the emphasis is on personal prayer. We should strive to read and re read these words, implant them in our hearts, and put them into practice. Prayer is the raising of the mind and heart to God in praise and thanksgiving to Him and in supplication for the good things that we need, both spiritual and physical. Every man when praying converses with God.
