Prayers are more than just words whispered into your clasped hands or said with a bowed head. It is the direct link between you and God. It allows you to vent, to cry out the pain, to cry out in joy, to express your gratitude, to gain strength, wisdom, and peace; and to increase your patience, love and fortitude. It can re-direct your focus and it's a great way to start or end a meditative state.
Even if you don't believe - a prayer of hope & determination, when allowed to ignite from the heart, sends a message out to the universe that you are spiritually strong and capable to handle that which is on your life's path. Praying together forms a bond that allows you and your prayer partner(s) to unite in a passionate and compassionate circle of support.
Prayer joins everyone, it does not discriminate. Prayer is all inclusive; people from all walks of life and from mixed religious backgrounds can pray together. You can pray anywhere, at any time and with anyone. English Poet, William Cowper wrote: "...variety is the spice of life..." So too is prayer. It is the seasoning that enhances how you live.
So don't be reluctant to have a one on one prayer or a group prayer session with family, friends, or even strangers. Your religious distinction is irrelevant but your FAITH is necessary.
