SECTION ONE PRAYER IN THE CHRISTIAN LIFE
2560
“If you knew the gift of God!”7
The wonder of prayer is revealed beside the well where we come seeking water:
there, Christ comes to meet every human being.
It is he who first seeks us and asks us for a drink. Jesus thirsts; his asking
arises from the depths of God’s desire for us.
Whether we realize it or not, prayer is the encounter of God’s thirst with
ours. God thirsts that we may thirst for him.8
