Prayer is not about feelings of love, it is about being, truly and literally, in Love, living in Him in whom we have our being. It occupies the whole of heart and might, and in an odd way, despite distractions, it can occupy the whole mind too. Everything that flits through the mind in prayer, no matter how irrelevant or irreverent it may seem, can be caught up into our love of God. Nothing is wasted. Above all we should never let our feelings in prayer deter us from persevering in prayer, for God listens to our prayer even when we don’t. |
