The Miracle of Prayer

Prayer—communication with the Divine, God, Creator of all that is

Prayer is a way of talking with God, of establishing direct communication with the Heavens themselves, of asking for what you want and need and of being heard. Pure, simple, intimate, and available all the time, at all times.

Prayer is not complicated; it is a simple matter of merely talking to the Divine, to God the Creator. There are no magic formulas or special words that need to be said. Prayer doesn’t have to be poetry in motion. It just has to be from the heart, petition and thanksgiving from you to God.

God is there for you every hour of every day of every year. God knows everything about you, every thought, every feeling, every hope, every fear. God doesn’t want you to suffer but to flourish and be happy, to reach your potential, and through prayer you can do just that. It is your most powerful tool to communicate with God, and your prayers never go unheard, but instead are always answered according to God’s will.

Pray with faith that you will be heard. Pray with reverence. Pray in worship. Be open to all God has in store for you, and always, in all ways be thankful.
