Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
My friend xyz posted that s/he needed prayers for a loved one who has been sick for quite some time now. The family is at wit’s end between doctor’s appointments and trying to take care of their children. We have made praying for people a brief response to circumvent their pain. When people are going through struggles, we reply with “I’ll pray for you,” and then we proceed to walk away and forget about their struggles and refocus on our menial, unimportant to-do list for the day.

I have always been fascinated by daily prayer rituals. Do you pray the rosary as you fold laundry? Listen to the daily Mass readings on a podcast as you clean the house? Pray in the car?

Each time something horrible happens in our world, I find myself having the same conversation with one person or another: “Do you think this is the end?” It used to make me very anxious. “No man knows the day,” so it very well might be, right? If it is, what am I doing bothering with learning, shopping, cleaning, or anything? It would all be pointless.
