In this episode, the reading is devoted to finishing the section of prayer. All prayer, Fr. Scupoli teaches us, is aimed at intimate union with Christ himself. Prayer is a living relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit that Jesus made possible by his Passion and Resurrection and Ascension. Christ Himself is the way, the truth, and the life. Our prayer aims at fostering a loving union with the will of the Father through union with Christ Jesus, a union made possible by the Holy Spirit.
