Re: [QUAD-L] This is MY way of Praying ~ Anytime
While they are "inspirational" ... other folks' poems, stories or prayers are THEIRS for a reason. Wouldn't one think personal prayer as being at the top? I would think G_D would like to hear our unique differences rather than a form of Plagerism :-) No matter how humble orf silly WE MAY think our own form of prayers are ... I don't think we're graded against a Saint or a Poet! In fact, the more personal and humble the prayer ... is what IS described in the religion books inder Abraham. Nothing to get one's undies in a bind ... just a thought ONLY!

Re: [QUAD-L] This is MY way of Praying ~ Anytime
My way of training is just like Mare, the Lord's Prayer , which you can do anywhere at anytime. Dana I'm more like Bobbie (at the bottom of this email) but I'll often say/think ... God .. IF you DO exist then you know me best and I know YOU will let me know of your existence in some way at some time. If he/she/it is omniscient omnipotent then he knows what I'm thinking and praying for. Even if it's asking if he exists. But I do not believe in the Christian G_D. The Deistic view ... if any. If you're Christian then you know that John said that Prayer is the hope of things wished for.

Re: [QUAD-L] This is MY way of Praying ~ Anytime
Hi Bobbie,It's a beautiful prayer. When I pray it's a like that with me. I believe my prayers can, and do, make a difference in the way things are in my life and in others.. I pray with a respect and a reverence worthy of a Power so great that lives can be changed by thought.
