As a Catholic Mom, it can be challenging to find time to reflect on our own needs. However it's crucial that we find time to spend in mental Prayer, that spacial alone time with God. I oftentimes can only make time having this "alone time" while holding my 6 month old in my arms and walking around with him, while at the same time, speaking with our Lord and sharing with him all my messy thoughts, worries, desires, struggles and joys. The quote comes to mind that when prayer is most a struggle, it is also most valuable.
