Pray Always in Spirit and Truth
"Let us adore God with pure hearts because we need to 'pray continually and never lose heart' (Lk 18:1), for the Father seeks such worshipers (cf. Jn 4:23). 'God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth' (Jn 4:24)." --St. Francis, Rule of 1221, Chapter XXII
To worship God in spirit and truth is to worship Him with our whole hearts. If we worship Him with all of ourselves our lives become continual prayers because His Spirit will be fully in us and truth will reign in us.
