Our secular society does nothing to encourage us to discover God’s presence in our lives through silent, prayerful reflection. To the contrary, the overload of media and noise discourage cultivating a habit of silent, meditative prayer. Yet prayer of this kind is essential if we are to recognize and accept God’s mercy and love acting in our lives. The theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity grow in us when we cooperate with the grace that enables us to pray contemplatively and so enter into a deeper communion with the God who is Love. Cardinal Arborelius explores these themes and places them in conversation with the thought of Lawrence of the Resurrection, Elizabeth of the Trinity, Teresa of Ávila, and John of the Cross.
