Pray in God's kingdom
St. Isaac the Syrian says that prayer is the kingdom of God! For this
reason, Christ presses and urges us to pray: "You ought always to pray and
not lose heart" (Lk 18:1). For it is in constant prayer that God's kingdom
is secretly reveled within us. As St. Anthony the Great says, "I love you
with all my heart and spirit because you have obtained the presence of God
within you."
