Genoa to New York: Yesterday, the 14th

How are you today, Catholic Pilgrims? I hope well. I hope you are feeling better than the poor seasick Sisters on board the Fulda. Yes, as they've reached open ocean, the waves have picked up and so has the nausea.  One of the hardest things to be good at in the spiritual life is praying. You simply cannot get better if you don't keep at it and discipline yourself. You also won't grow in it if you just see prayer as a wish list. It is good to bring God our intentions, but we, also, need to do more than that in prayer.  Mother Cabrini is going to give us some spiritual guidance on prayer, so let's turn to page 97 and see what she has to say.
