“At some point, in order to continue to deepen our relationship with our Lord, we must re-kindle in our heart the love for Him that we had in the beginning…This helps us remember that we should not pray because “that’s what we’re supposed to do.” But rather, we should desire to know God and desire a relationship with Him.”
(Sisterhood of the Monastery of the Transfiguration,  Spring, 2017)
