Jesus told his disciples that men ought always to pray. He himself was always in prayer. We often forget this. Prayer, for any spiritually-minded person, is no part-time occupation. For a man who has faith in God, all activities are prayers of a sort - walking, sitting, working, eating, playing. Such a man lives, like Brother Lawrence, in the presence of God, and his actions are offerings of prayer unto Him.
