Prayer is sowing

July 18

“Prayer is sowing; contemplation the reaping of the harvest, when the reaper is filled with wonder at the ineffable sight of the beautiful ears of corn, which have sprung before him from the little naked seeds that he sowed.”

-St. Isaak of Syria

Today's Reflection:

What are some of the “beautiful ears of corn” that I have seen sprout from past prayers? This gives me encouragement to persevere in my current petition.
