ASAP and World Vision Experience

I was reading an article in our diocesan newspaper, and came across a concept that I personally thought was motivating. To Quote Father John Slampak, STL:
The acronym ASAP usually means as soon as possible. You know the drill: there's work to do, deadlines to meet and you've got no time to spare, but as you hurry and scurry, ASAP: always say a prayer. In the midst of family chaos, quality time is rare. Do your best and let God do the rest, ASAP, always say a prayer.

He continues with
God knows how stressful life is and wants to ease your cares and will respond to to all your prayers, ASAP, always say a prayer
It is so simple. We are not talking about starting a novena, or praying the full rosary, but maybe just a quick "thank you" or a "I could use your help" said within your own head and heart. At least for me, I've started to put this into practice. For the good times, and the challenging times. After all, we're taught the more we relinquish control to the Lord the better off we'll be.

Being involved with Team World Vision, we get information about other happenings within the overall World Vision organization. I received this about the World Vision Experience: AIDS. It looks like a remarkable experience. When we go, we'll post on it.
