[248.1] OUT OF THE CLOISTER

To pray unceasingly is to lead all our thoughts out of their fearful isolation into a fearless conversation with God... Prayer can only become unceasing prayer when all our thoughts – beautiful or ugly, high or low, proud or shameful, sorrowful or joyful – can be thought in the divine present. (Henri Nouwen)
