It's Worth Struggling With Prayer

Martin Laird’s “A Sunlit Absence – Silence, Awareness and Contemplation” is a helpful reminder that prayer can be a struggle – and there is nothing wrong with that – though it is a struggle worth the engagement. As Laird comments: “When prayer becomes what orders our day, as something we attempt to live out of moment by moment, rather than the tail pinned blindly onto the donkey of daily life, then prayer will integrate us into itself.”
