I think it’s very, very, very hard to wait
Especially when you’re waiting
For something very nice
I think it’s very, very, very hard to wait.
— Fred Rogers
“What is prayer?” That question was recently posed to me by a new catechumen just beginning his preparation for baptism through the RCIA. It’s a question that is well worth the time for any Christian to consider. Prayer is as essential to our spiritual life as oxygen is to our physical life, and just like the air we breathe, it’s easy to take prayer for granted.
