Theme 14 : 'Heart' and 'Prayer'

Human beings, knowingly or unknowingly, are in search of God. 
"God thirsts that we may thirst for HIM. Prayer is the encounter of God's thirst with our thirst." - (from CCC 2560)
"The heart is the depths of one's being where the person decides for or against God." - (from CCC 368)
A prayer made, with heart far from God, is not a true prayer.
"The heart is the place of decision, deeper than our psychic drives. It is the place of truth, where we choose life or death." - (from CCC 2563)

Prayer :
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, make my heart like yours. Let my heart always decide for my Creator...choosing life.
O Immaculate heart of Mother Mary, help me to pray with my heart close to God.
