Question of the week:  Have you ever tried the Liturgy of the Hours (Divine Office)? Why or why not, and, if so, is it something you pray regularly?

I’ve been praying the Invitatory, Office of Readings, Evening and / or Night Prayer most days for years, though I have had more success doing it thoughtfully and enjoying it since I discovered: DivineOffice.org.  They provide a beautiful community prayer experience for me.  I love not having to spend frustrating effort finding and flipping pages, though I probably merited time off purgatory for all those efforts in years past, Then I just managed Morning Prayer.

Hearing the marvellous readers,prayers and their heartfelt readings helps me quickly get into the rhythm of this holy practice.

I’ve been away so all I could manage was a re-post I hope you’ll like:

I have been thinking of the Four Last Things.  Here are some thoughts and work of great God lovers and theologians to pass on and one prayer poem of mine:

O Powerful Babe

From the Confessions of Saint Augustine, bishop

Avery Dulles on the Death Penalty and Catholic Teaching through the Ages

Be ready at all times,(Luke 21:36) and so live that death may never find you unprepared.
