Great prayer advice

I'm sure most of you pray the Divine Office (Liturgy of the Hours) so this might be redundant, but for those of you who DON'T, I wanted to share this EXCELLENT advice from St. Charles Borromeo (1500's) that I read this month on his feast day:

"Would you like me to teach you how to grow from virtue to virtue and how, if you are already recollected at prayer, you can be even more attentive next time, and so give God more pleasing worship? Listen, and I will tell you. If a tiny spark of God's love already burns within you, do not expose it to the wind, for it may get blown out. Keep the stove tightly shut so that it will not lose its heat and grow cold. In other words, avoid distractions as well as you can. Stay quiet with God. Do not spend your time in useless chatter."

This is enough for great meditation. I won't expound on it. Read a couple of times, it expounds upon itself. It goes on, but this is the best part. You can read the rest in Volume IV, Nov. 4. But now, I must get out the next Volume for the first day of Advent.
