The Gaps
As we grow in faith, prayer takes on a central rhythm in our lives.
We develop anchors—times when we pray consistently. Morning prayer bookending the day with night prayer. Grace before meals. The Angelus at noon. These are good.
Our days are built around these anchors, but there's a lot of life happening between them.
The question is: how do we let God into those moments?
The commute. The meeting. The conversation with your spouse. Playing with your kids. The ordinary work.
These aren't times "set aside" for prayer. But they can become prayer.
That's the direction we're heading—not just anchor prayers throughout the day, but a life that becomes prayer itself.
It starts with the anchors. But then we learn to fill in the gaps.
The gaps are where most of your life happens. And God wants to be there too.
So keep the anchors. But don't stop there. Fill in the gaps.

Let us pray.
Lord, teach us to pray without ceasing. We invite You into the moments between. Make our whole lives a prayer. In Jesus' name. Amen.
Keep fighting the good fight. Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
