TALK
In Ireland we are regarded as a great nation of talkers. But how many of us talk to God, through standard prayers or in our own way? Do we ask God to help us and others? Do we thank Him often enough?
It is often said that the persons who shouts the loudest gets the most. St Luke says, "So I say to you, ask and it will be given to you".
