Prayer and difficulties of life

Prayer and difficulties of life

“The garment of faith,” the Pope said, “is not starched, but develops with us.” It is not rigid, it grows, even through moments of crisis and resurrection. And “you cannot grow without moments of crisis, because crisis makes you grow.”

He continued, “And the breath of faith is prayer: we grow in faith inasmuch as we learn to pray.” After certain moments in life, we become aware that without faith we could not have made it through and that our strength was prayer. We realize that not only personal prayer, but also that of our brothers, sisters and the community, whom we requested, also accompanied and supported us.”
