THOUGHTS ON PRAYER




SCRIPTURES IS PRAYER

 

As St. Dominic went on his travels, he would steal short moments of prayer. He would unobtrusively stand with his whole mind instantaneously concentrated on heaven, and soon he would be heard pronouncing, with the utmost enjoyment and relish, some lovely text from the very heart of Sacred Scriptures, which he would seem to have drawn fresh from Christ.

 

Those around him were greatly moved by this example, when they saw their father and master praying in this way and the more devout among them found it the best possible instruction on how to pray continuously and reverently.
