Walking the Camino - Listen to Jesus as He Teaches Us How to Pray

 “And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others.  Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.   

But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

When you are praying, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard because of their many words.  Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him."
Matthew 6: 5-8 

Invite Jesus to walk this Camino with you.  Go into your room.  Shut the door and pray to The Father in secret.  Use this time and place to grow closer to the Most Holy Trinity as you pray.  Walk this Camino and become the person God intended you to be!  Stop.  Listen.  God speaks to you in silence.  Stop.  Pray.  God loves the ripples of silence when you pray.  

At times, this Camino is difficult.  Stay the course, and may God be with us.
