One of the magnificent benefits of the Jesus Prayer (Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me) is that I can practice it wherever I am—on the streets of Florence, on the walkways near my home, and certainly at an airport; and the prayer is with me whether I am alone or with others. I say practice because that what it always is, never perfect, no goal to be reached, just a simple prayer to be prayed. I began practicing the prayer over five years ago when I first started going to the cottage. My challenge continues to be to remember it. I can be with me wherever I go, whether alone or in the company of others.
It is raining today but I am cozy and content at the RED Café in La Felltrini Book. RED as in Read, Eat, Dream. I am writing, not reading, as well as eating and dreaming, but this place is also a book store, and besides there is a red motif. I have already wandered the streets to Santa Trinita, one of my favorite churches for prayer.
