Day 329: The Gift of Prayer — The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)

📖 Follow along with the official Catechism in a Year Reading Plan (https://AscensionPress.com/CIY)

St. Thérèse said that “prayer is a surge of the heart.” Do we pray from our pride or from a place of humility? The Catechism tells us that “humility is the foundation of prayer.” In humility we can feel God’s thirst for us, accept his gift of prayer, and pray to him from our heart. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 2558-2565.

Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
