In Everything

 
Learn to entwine with your prayers the small cares, the trifling sorrows, the little wants of daily life. Whatever affects you-be it a changed look, an altered tone, an unkind word, a cruel wound, a demand you cannot meet, a sorrow you cannot disclose-turn it into a prayer, and send it up to God. Disclosures you may not make to man, you can make to the Lord. Men may be too little for your great matters, God is not too great for your small ones. Only give yourself to prayer, whatever the occasion that calls for it.
