I take it as a given that all of us want to pray more We know that prayer is the most beneficial thing for us Yet in the face of the many demands for our time attention and effort for good things our personal prayer can take a back seat Pope Benedict encouraged us to ldquonot be con-sumed with haste as if time dedicated to Christ in silent prayer were time wasted On the contrary it is precisely then that the most wonderful fruitshellip come to birthrdquo Time and time again I have to remind myself of this truth I need reminding that time with Christ is the best use of my time that when I am alone with Him who made me I allow Him to remake me In prayer I am the most fruitful version of myself It can be so easy to misplace priorities out of a mis-guided sense of productivity effectiveness and fruitfulness We are often praised when wersquore busy encouraged when we take the lead and celebrated for taking the initiative But what about taking time to receive peace following instead of deciding and surrendering our will for what is far more beautiful in the first place There is a lot of noise out there but this Lent I ask you to follow me and ldquowasterdquo some time
