‘Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one’s weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.’ ~Mahatma Gandhi

So much has been said about prayer. Whatever the advice or suggestions, are always only invitations. There is no one single or exclusive way of praying. There is such variety and all are as important as the next. Prayer is making a connection to what we call the Source or the Divine Creative Energy at the centre of our being. Prayer is making a connection with this unique source, with God, with a Higher Power, with something that goes way beyond words. Prayer does not always have to be about words. An open honest heart or a willingness to simply do our best each day is a wonderful prayer. It can often be connecting with God in the little things we do each day. Life may generate uncertainties, questions and is often fragile. But we keep balance and stability every time we make a connection to our Source through prayer.
