(Summary)
*The Power of Praise In Marriage
A married couple came to a counselor for advice.
No sooner were they seated, and then they began speaking at the same time
in a duel of criticisms.
The wife pushed her paper over to the watching counselor.
When they finally stopped for lack of breath, the counselor suggested that
now they tell each other all the good they see in one another. That proved
that she treasured the sudden revelation of good things her husband had
expressed about her.
Finally the writing stopped.
Renewing the worship of our people requires renewing their prayer life
and popular religious practices....The basis for renewing our prayer life
and religious practices is surely the Church's Trinitarian Prayer....For
this prayer calls us away from inauthentic "faith" seeking private
security,to outgoing self-giving in sharing Christ's and the Church's
saving mission of loving service (CFC 194-195).
