Catholic young adult and amateur philosopher from the Bay Area, in awe of the grandeur of the universe and the even greater glory of its Maker.
Novena to St. Thomas Aquinas
Eighth Day: St. Thomas, teacher of prayer
“Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving” (Col 4:2).
St. Thomas, you knew that prayer is the source of wisdom and you spent long hours in conversation with God. Prayer became your very life.Whenever you pondered over a problem in theology, you turned to prayer to seek God’s enlightenment. Now in heaven you see God face to face. Pray for me, too, that I might become a person of profound prayer. Obtain for me the grace that I might always pray with humility, confidence and perseverance. Help me to grow more and more in the spirit of prayer, so that my whole life may become a prayer. May I always seek the face of the living God.
