Description:

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Many people desire to spend time in prayer. There is a need for silence and mental restfulness in our life. This craving for silence and mental restfulness is not a psychological need but rather a deep-felt desire for God-experience which wells up in fact from the depth of our very being. We are made for God and nothing can ever satisfy us apart from God. This desire for God can torment us during various moments of our daily life; during our rest, work, and perhaps throughout the day without our full awareness. Such a desire is healthy but sadly enough not much attention has been given to this basic desired need. At times there is also in us a crude tendency to suppress this craving, and attend to our material needs and pulls. Our Lord says, where your treasure is there will your heart be also (Lk 12.34). Often our treasure is not firmly based on God; rather on things that really do not give us lasting peace and joy. When our whole being is focussed on God, there is no difficulty for prayer because everything we do is geared to God. Prayer is not an isolated activity but an integrative response to God. But when we are not centred entirely on God, the difficulty of focussing in life’s affairs can spontaneously arise. God is and should be the centre of every one of our activities. This book is a welcome volume to help to those who struggle in their spiritual path and prayer. Prayer is not what we do externally but is life itself that is lived in union with God. If our prayer has to be authentic our life must be authentic. If we live a life that is not pleasing to God, however great may be our effort at prayer these efforts will fail to bear fruit.
