MARGARET,O.C.D.  \nAdvertisements for a recently published book on the spiritual lifequote a Sister,Dean of a College:\"At every meeting of the SisterFormation Conferences I have attended,the big problem of havingtoo much work assigned in obedience,preventing the Sisters fromgiving themselves to prayer and the interior life,has been discussedand lamented...\"(Italics mine).  \nThis is surely an extraordinary statement.How is it possiblethat any work assigned by legitimate authority and undertakenin the spirit of faith and obedience,can prevent a religious fromgiving herself to God or finding him in that work?True,it mightrule out for a certain period (or even the greater part of one's life)particular exercises of prayer;and as we are all fundamentallyselfish,especially in regard to spiritual practices from which wederive pleasure or satisfaction,we feel our soul is being deprivedof its rightful need of nourishment.But surely we have all learned,at the outset of our religious life,that a sine qua non in the follow-ing of Christ is that,like him,we find“our meat in doing the willof him who called us.\"  \nIt is often said that prayer is work and work is prayer.Thisis true;but only if we have already and elsewhere acquired thespirit of prayer can we effect the metamorphosis,for it is neverthe action in itself that constitutes the prayer,but rather the super-natural orientation of the work.There are few,it seems,in thesedays of fuss and busy-ness about many things,who really under-stand,let alone cultivate,\"total well-being in domestic living.\"It is a commonplace today for the laity to be exhorted to findGod in the daily round;that the commuter on the subway,theclerk at his desk,the boilermaker at his engine,are performinga duty of worship and sacrifice no less essential than attendingchurch on Sunday;that\"putting on Christ\"is not a department-alized affair of private devotions,bu","cbCaivCtkhIQKcEF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivCtkhIQKcEF","pdf",1615165,"English","# Our Reasonable Service\n## Coming to Know God\n## Poem\n## Jacob's Combat with the Angel\n##
