Patience
Thoughts on the Patient Endurance of Sorrows and Sufferings

YOU ARE NOT PRAYING ENOUGH

The world is running to destruction for want of Prayer.

By Prayer­-
YOU can stem the tide of iniquity.
YOU can conquer the enemies of Holy Church.
YOU can change this pagan world in to a Chris­tian world.
YOU can save thousands of souls. God is waiting for a prayer or a little sacrifice of yours to save souls from hell.

Make all that you do a prayer by willing it.

"Pray without ceasing."
-Thess. v. 17.

"Let nothing hinder you from praying always."
-Ecclus. xviii. 22.

"The Lord is nigh to all them that call upon Him: to all that call upon Him in truth. He will do the will of them that fear Him; and He will hear their prayers and save them."
Ps. cxliv. 18, 19.

Short prayers are free from distractions and are most efficacious.
