Julian of Norwich

Prayer unites the soul to God, for though the soul may be always like God in nature and in substance restored by grace, it is often unlike God in condition, through separation on our part. Then prayer is a witness that the soul wills as God wills, and it eases the conscience and fits us for grace.

The best prayer is to rest in the goodness of God knowing that that goodness can reach right down to our lowest depths of need.

"We are in God and God, whom we do not see, is in us."
