Do you ever struggle to pray, especially when you’re angry, sad, or feeling distant from God? Fr. Fernando Camou explains how the Liturgy of the Hours meets us in every season of life, even in our suffering, and gives us the words to pray when we don’t know what to say. Through the Psalms and prayers of the Liturgy of the Hours, we can bring our whole history, emotions, and struggles before God and allow Him to draw us out of the darkness and deeper into relationship with Him.
