When the Spirit dwells within a person, from the moment that person has
become prayer, the Spirit never leaves them. For the Spirit himself never
ceases to pray within us. Whether we are asleep or awake, from then on prayer
never departs from our soul. Whether we are eating or drinking or sleeping or
whatever else we may be doing, even if we are in the deepest of sleeps, the
incense of prayer is rising without effort in our heart. Prayer never again
deserts us. In every moment of our life, even when it appears to have ceased,
prayer is secretly at work within us continuously.
Isaac of Nineveh
