Wisdom from Fr. Donald Haggerty

 
 
 

On a clear summer day without a breeze, a motionless lake exudes a pure beauty. Like a wet sheet of glass in the bright sunlight, it seems to gaze at the sky and receive a purity from above. Our mind in prayer can be like that when it is poised in silent attentiveness.

—Fr. Donald Haggerty

from his book, Contemplative Enigmas: Insights and Aid on the Path to Deeper Prayer
