During this reflection, Sheen Enthusiast (Al Smith) details ten good reasons for making a Holy Hour.
He shares some of the wisdom found in Archbishop Sheen's book "Lord Teach us to Pray - An Anthology" (Sophia Institute Press - 2020)
But why spend an hour a day in meditation? Because we are living on the surface of our souls, knowing little either of God or our inner self. Our knowledge is mostly about things, not about destiny. Here are ten reasons to make a Holy Hour from Archbishop Sheen.
(1) Because it is time spent in the Presence of Our Lord Himself. If faith is alive, no further reason is needed.
(2) Because in our busy life it takes considerable time to shake off the “noonday devils,” the worldly cares, which cling to our souls, like dust.
(3) Because Our Lord asked for it.
(4) Because the Holy Hour keeps a balance between the spiritual and the practical.
(5) Because the Holy Hour will make us practice what we preach.
(6) Because the Holy Hour helps us make reparation both for the sins of the world and for our own.
(7) Because it reduces our liability to temptation and weakness.
(8) Because the Holy Hour is a personal prayer.
(9) Meditation keeps us from seeking an external escape from our worries and miseries.
(10) Finally, because the Holy Hour is necessary for the Church.
