Prayer is not mouthing
empty words at God.
It is not asking God to do something
then waiting to see if God answers.
It is holding a prayer, a plan, an image,
with God,
voicing it, believing it,
picturing it, thanking God for it.
Prayer is embodying
a future possibility before it is born.
Prayer becomes substance,
a thought form, a blueprint,
a hope in the heart
with roots in the mind.
It is the first stage
of creating a new reality.
Prayer
takes us into the world of Spirit.
Prayer
is co-creating with God.
