Freedom in the Gospel does not mean license. It means opportunity.

Prayer is the human response to the perpetual outpouring of love by which God lays siege to every soul.

And so I urge you: carry on an ongoing conversation with God about the daily stuff of life, a little like Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. For now, do not worry about "proper" praying, just talk to God.

It is in the everyday and the commonplace that we learn patience, acceptance, and contentment.

Prayer is - a means of uniting us unto Himself.

God has given us the Disciplines of the spiritual life as a means of receiving his grace. The Disciplines allow us to place ourselves before God so that he can transform us.

Spiritual direction involves a process through which one person helps another person understand what God is doing and saying.
