It appears that when life is broken by tragedy God shines through the breach.

Intercession is more than specific: it is pondered: it requires us to bear on our heart the burden of those for whom we pray.

Prayer is listening as well as speaking, receiving as well as asking; and its deepest mood is friendship held in reverence. So the daily prayer should end as it begins - in adoration.

Prayer is not a vain attempt to change God's will; it is a filial desire to learn God's will and to share it. Prayer is not a substitute for work: it is the secret spring and indispensable ally of all true work.

Prayer is not a substitute for work, thinking, watching, suffering, or giving; prayer is a support for all other efforts.
