Do you ever feel like that?
.
Last Wednesday at adoration I felt completely unable to pray, to think, to meditate, to settle down - that sort of thing. After my usual examen, prayers of adoration, and litany of intentions, I just looked at the Lord silently for a really long time. Some Wednesdays, after an hour or so of looking, I have been beginning to feel restless - and it is then I usually pray the psalms or read the scriptures. However, at that point this past Wednesday, I recalled how our Lord instructed St. Faustina to pray the chaplet unceasingly. So after finishing my rosary, I began to pray the chaplet of Divine Mercy, and I prayed it over and over until the end of adoration.

"In the same way, the Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes with inexpressible groanings." - Romans 8:26
