constant prayer

Acts 1:14
They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

On the surface, monks and nun in monasteries and cloisters may seem like they are trying to get away from the world. Yet, reality is far different. They are pouring out blessings upon us and battling the forces of darkness bent on destroying us. Their prayers connected to God’s grace are a powerful fuel to energize our service in this world. I shudder to think what our world would be like without their prayers…

Pray for those who pray for you this day.
