Our soul longs for God. All of our desires represent the deep longing of our soul for oneness with God.
- Rebecca Clark
If I allow myself to become caught up in the activities of the day, I may find I am so busy that I forget to take time to pray. Yet when I do take a moment to retreat from the outer world for a heart-and-soul connection with God, I immediately feel refreshed. I am comforted and strengthened.
In prayer, I quiet my thoughts. I let my body relax and allow God's loving presence to support me.
Prayer is my comfort, for it satisfies my yearning for God. I understand that my prayers do not cause God to act; instead, they help me realise that God's will is actively at work, bringing about blessings for me at all times.
Prayer is the refreshing break that brings me comfort and peace of mind.
