Description

Today, we read CCC, 2598 - 2622 and discuss formulaic, or rote, prayers. Oftentimes, Catholic Christians get a bad wrap for praying the same, prescribed prayers again and again and again... as though we're boring or lacking in creativity as we pray them. It can be quite helpful and quite a good thing to have prayers "at the ready" when we're setting out on our prayer journey or when we're tired, stressed, distracted, etc. Prayer is prayer, and God doesn't need us to be fancy, as though He's waiting to be wowed by our prayers before He answers them. He tells us to ask... seek... knock, and then to trust that our prayers are already being heard and answered. Sounds like a pretty simple and hopeful way to proceed!
