Today's Reading - For Today

"Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees." Victor Hugo Prayer is a habit now - a way to be free of immobilizing defects. Often in the course of a day, I may think or act with a certain spontaneity, accepting virtually everything about life. That, to me, is a form of prayer. Prayer comforts me, so I waste no time in wishing things were different. It allows me to deal with what is before me, and gives me the energy to work at coping with situations I may be able to do something about, such as illness, flat tires, a leaking roof. Prayer allows me to like and enjoy life and to live without suffocating in guilt over past mistakes. For today: I am open to prayer throughout the day, wherever I am and whatever I am doing.
