A Simple Rule: 40-Day Prayer JourneySample

A simple rule

Father, I want to live out my faith in every area of my life. Please help me use these three simple guidelines to do that.

The idea of a ‘rule of life’ developed in Christian monastic communities, the best-known being that of St Benedict. A rule of life is simply a rhythm of prayer, reflection, or other spiritual practices that help us integrate our faith into our daily lives. It serves as a framework for freedom – not a set of rules that restrict or deny life, but a way of living out our faith in the context of our work or community.
