“Pray with your whole being even though you think it has no savor for you. For such prayer is very profitable even though you feel nothing, though you see nothing, even though it seems impossible to you. It is in dryness and barrenness, in sickness and feebleness that your prayer is most pleasing to me, even though you think that it has little savor for you.” -Julian of Norwich           "Revelations of Divine Love"

For Reflection: What do I think it means to “pray with your whole being?”

(See tomorrow’s Grace Line for one saint’s description of what this means.)

The "nails of history" are also "nails," so to speak, that come to people from the breath of the Spirit of God as He leads us day after day to deeper conversion, bringing to maturity in us the wonderful features of the image of Christ (see Ephesians 4:13). Thanks to the Trinitarian passage of time, sooner or later there comes a time of deeper conversion for everybody.
