Blessings

Prayer is neither black magic nor is it a form of demand note.
Prayer is a relationship.
The act of praying is more analogous to clearing away the underbrush which shuts out a view than it is to begging on the street.  There are many different kinds of prayer.  Yet all prayer has one basic purpose.
We pray not to get something, but to open up a two-way street between us and God, so that we and others may inwardly become something.
