Our Lord insists on the social aspect of our lives: He shows very distinctly that we cannot further ourselves alone.

We have an idea that God is leading us to a particular end, a desired goal; He is not...What we call the process God calls the end. His purpose is that I depend on Him and His power NOW. It is the process, not the end that is glorifying to God.

Am I always in contact with Reality, or do I only pray when things have gone wrong, when there is a disturbance in the moments of my life?

We tend to set up success in Christian work as our purpose, but our purpose should be to display the glory of God in human life, to live a life "hidden with Christ in God" in our everyday human conditions.

Prayer is the answer to every problem there is.

When we are abandoned to God, He works through us all the time.

Prayer is not getting things from God. That is a most initial stage; prayer is getting into perfect communion with God: I tell Him what I know He knows in order that I may get to know it as He does.
