Watch and be sober, and especially during the prayer of mind and heart.
Watch and be sober, and especially during the prayer of mind and heart. No one pleases God more than he who practices the prayer of mind and heart aright.
When outward surroundings make prayer difficult, or when you have no time to pray, at such times, whatever you may be doing, strive to preserve the spirit of prayer in yourself by all possible means, remembering God and striving in every way to see Him before you with the eyes of your mind, in fear and love.
