Prayer and work

I think many of us aren't happy with our prayer lives because we try to fit breaks of prayer into the cracks of our workday. And then, we get to the end of the day, and we went hours without talking to God.

I had a good friend challenge me: he said I should fit my work into the cracks of my prayer day. Start with the times of prayer, then fit work and family around that.

It may not be too liberal to say this, but the Catholic husband's priorities have to be God > wife > children > other souls > work, the latter of which is merely a means to all the previous.
