Persevere In Prayer

“Do you persevere in prayer? Do you know who Jesus is? If he seems silent, do you ask him again and again for what you need? Do you humble yourself and continue to cry out for mercy for yourself and those you love? Saint Josemariá Escrivá in his little book ‘The Way’ wrote: “Persevere in prayer. Persevere, even when your efforts seem sterile. Prayer is always fruitful.”
