"The brethren asked Abba Agathon, 'Amongst all our different activities, Father, which is the virtue that requires the greatest effort? He answered, 'Forgive me, but I think there is no effort greater than praying to God. For every time a man wants to pray, his enemies, the demons, try to prevent him; for they know that nothing obstructs them so much as prayer to God. In everything else that a man undertakes, if he perseveres, he will attain rest. But in order to pray, a man must struggle to his last breath."
-The Sayings of the Desert Fathers (Sixth Century)

On the subject of inner healing and prayer:
It seems to be a law of the inner life that we have to ask for the inner help that is needed long before it begins to manifest. - Paul Brunton
The miracle of self-healing occurs when the inner patient yields to the inner physician. - Vernon Howard

"Your prayer must be for a sound mind in a sound body (Orandum est ut sit mens sana in corpore sana)." Juvenal
The prayer list remains the same as last posted (above).

SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST:
Curious Voyager has asked for particular prayer tonight at 8 p.m. For those of you who are praying, I ask that you bathe him and the people he is meeting with in prayer.
Thank you.

I acted out and must confess that to my Sweetie tonight when I get home. I am very afraid of how this will hurt her and how she will react.
Please, please, give urgent prayers for her and I both.
