Prayer calling


'And all the peoples behold his Glory.' Psalm 97:6
There are so many things that draw us to prayer.
It might be a candle.
It might be the call of a bird.
A glorious frosty morning.
A cobweb draped across the wire on the fence.
In Melbourne recently, at the Ignatius Spirituality Centre ,I discovered many things that drew me to prayer but amongst them was a glorious flower, one I had never set eyes on before. It covered a Hakia bush, it drew my breath away, it drew me to prayer.
Richard Cabot says:
When beauty overwhelms us,
we are close to worship.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ.
