Fourth talk, given on Saturday, December 5, 2015, at the Christ the King 2015 Women's Retreat on "Thirsting for Prayer" by Fr. Jacques Philippe, a priest of the Community of the Beatitudes,an international association of the faithful of Pontifical Right, founded in France in 1973. During this session, Fr. Philippe talks to us about the presence of God. It's a presence that is real, but also hidden, as in the Eucharist. What helps us discover the presence of God is faith, placing our trust in the words of scripture and the Tradition of the Church. So this reality is a paradox. (Fr. Jacques gave the talks in French. They were translated into English by Sr. Maria of the Trinity.)
