Speak to me of Prayer?

Q: Speak to me of prayer?

Prayer is a song that arises from our heart and tells the sweet, tale of love. It is a whisper that comes from the depth of our soul and a melody through which we can share secrets, weakness, dreams and desires with our Beloved.

In prayer there must be no compulsion; it is not something that can be forced or taught. Real prayer is as natural as breathing; it is a song, an expression of our eternal self.

The great ones have taught, the most glorious prayer is the life that is lived for God. Learn to make your life a prayer and every moment sing the song of creation.

Prayer

Traveler: Holy One, speak to me of prayer.

Master: As the robin serenades the morning

And offers thanks for another day,

In this way, prayer is a song

That arises from the heart.
