Prayer
Home of the Soul
Prayer
is not a stratagem for occasional use, a refuge to resort to now and then,
especially when things are bad.
It
is rather like an established residence for the innermost self.
All
things have a home:
the
bird has a nest,
the
fox a den,
the
bees a hive.
A
soul without prayer is a soul without a home.
To
pray is to open the door of my innermost self so that God and the soul may
enter.
Prayer
is not asking things of God, but receiving what he wants to give you.
It
is not offering yourself to God, but welcoming God offering himself to you. |
