This week in the Hope for the Journey series, Fr. Javier reflects on the habit of prayer: “the prayers of the Daily Office are not good simply because they are ancient, beautiful, or wise. They are good when we pour our lives into them—when we turn them into a home, so to speak, creating a space for communion with God as we begin to pray in earnest.”
