Prayer transforms

September 12, 2023

“The object of prayer is of secondary importance; what matters above all is [the] relationship with the Father. This is what prayer does: it transforms the desire and models it according to the will of God, whatever that may be, because the one who prays aspires first of all to union with God, who is merciful Love.” — Pope Francis

Reflection : Is your primary motivation for prayer to deepen your relationship with the Father? What do you believe God’s will for you is? If you are uncertain, how might you discern what will lead you into union with God?
