Sr. Bridget Haase’s Thirty Days Praying The Imitation of Christ beautifully extracts some of the most poignant and relevant words of wisdom from Thomas à Kempis’ classic. In doing so, Haase gives us an opportunity to meditate on these gems in order to become more devout in the “ordinary routines and encounters of today.”
Inspiring us to “pray as we can, not as we can’t,” each chapter ends with thoughtful questions for reflection to help us ingest these pearls of wisdom deeper, nurturing them through contemplation. Further watering those seeds, she leads us in prayer, reminding us that the pathway to God is found in humility and sincere supplication for His help. Lastly, she gives us space on the page to ponder what we’ve read, prayed and reflected upon, in essence, giving us a blank canvas to write, paint, or draw whatever stirs our soul.
With so much food for thought tucked within these pages, I found myself underlining, highlighting and writing notes in the margins trying to capture it all. Once again, Haase has expanded my mind, heart and faith through her deep devotion, expansive knowledge and endearing down-to-earth style.
