Anyone who starts to pray may say to himself: You have been busy with worldly things; now it is time to begin God’s business, to work for God.

Paraphrasing St Paul, St John Chrysostom says, “make thine house a church”. It is possible, then, to make one’s house “a house of prayer”.
The French Life says, “Her life was beautiful and glorious, holy, sweet, and precious”.
We do not know why some people are healed and others not; we can only trust in God’s inscrutable providence and accept His will. But the afflicted can and should pray for healing or for consoling grace to bear the affliction, and leave the outcome in God’s hands.
