Prayer is a conversation (St. Alphonsus Ligouri / Hans Urs von Balthasar)


Acquire the habit of speaking to God
as if you were alone with Him,
familiarly and with confidence and love,
as to the dearest and most loving of friends.

--St. Alphonsus Ligouri

    Firstly, prayer is a conversation between God and the soul, and secondly, a particular language is spoken: God’s language. Prayer is dialogue, not man’s monologue before God
