Think for a moment of all the things we do each day. From the instant we wake to the time we go to sleep, our day is filled with tasks and duties. In fact, one organization estimates that the average person has 33 items on their daily to-do list! But ask yourself: “Does prayer make my list?” Jesus tells us “to pray always without getting weary.” Making time for prayer should be at the top of our list, and it could be done in numerous ways. Perhaps we can heed the call of St. Anselm to, “Escape from your everyday business for a short while, hide for a moment from your restless thoughts. Be less concerned about your tasks and labors. And above all be sure to make a little time for God and rest a while in him.”
