The past few weeks have been crazy busy for me. So I’m grateful my friend Caroline Lawry gifted me Hearts on Fire: Praying with Jesuits. It’s a lovely collection of dozens of prayers, none more than a page long. It’s helped keep me remember faith is more important than any of the world’s noise. I’ll keep dipping into Hearts on Fire this month… and I’m also excited about delving into The Handy Little Guide to Prayer when my copy arrives later this month. It’s by my friend Barb Szyszkiewicz, who’s a Secular Franciscan (and wife, and mom, and editor of CatholicMom.com; she’s also an amazing cook and shares her recipes).
I figure that between the Jesuit and Franciscan spirituality, I’ll get through this month (no offense to my Dominican, Benedictine, Salesian, Ignatian, and other friends!)
What’s on your nightstand?
