I remember the healing process. In those circumstances, the most mundane and common events become the most momentous gifts. And I prayed that no routine, no schedule, no hurried deadline, would erase the sweet victories of those moments. Moments of joy, of triumph, of redemption, of closeness, of promise. We hold these moments close and call them to mind when we need strength, courage, inspiration.
Prayer is a way of realizing and recognizing the power of moments.
Prayer is a way of holding moments, preserving and cherishing them. Prayer saves moments, allowing us to visit them when we are dry, lonely and empty. Recollect the passions that brought us to this point in life. Reconnect with our deepest values. Evaluate where we are in life, and where we're going.
