My First Public Prayer - Seriously - Don't laugh.
I have never done this before.
I have many times in my life recited prayers like a machine.
I have sincerely tried talking to God, to the universe and beyond.
I seem to get lazy very quickly in the realm of spirituality.
I am sick of it. So I am trying a new kind of prayer.
Here- out loud
with the world watching
I am going to try- without the presence of church and without a strict religion
I am going to say what comes to me .
It may be small
It may be nothing
It is already something though isn't it?
I am here God.
I am before you again.
Sorry about how long it has been since we last connected
God I dont know how to say
all of these things
I pray to you I pray to you now now now now now now now now nownownownownownonwownonwonw
*heavy
*tired
*weary
*cold
I am getting sick of
getting picked on
and getting last but not the least
Im gonna make it
I aim to take it to the end
that doesnt mean I
am leavin soon no
it surey doesnt mean that
It means Im prayin
these words I 'm sayin
How did the prayer song go?
I cant remember
Its almost gone now
I am alone in my prayer
Lord come redeem my
appreciating
property value
I can
I can see you in
my inner vision
it is a mission
to focus in
I want to love you and want your love too
I pray for happiness and glue
I pray for crayons and some thick white paper
I pray for your favorite band too.
I pray to feel you
to catch your spirit
I want to swim in your rain
I want to bless all
the molecules of
the tired tears
and the pain
I pray for all of
the holy spirit to shine onto me
and make me new
I pray for true faith
I pray that my friends won't doubt me
I pray my violators find oeace
I pray for more than just this
I pray for vision
I pray decisions
will be made correctly and my
purity will speak clear and candidly
God help when my heart
has been so wounded
my friends have walked
away from me
My life it crumbles
I sit here humbled
I have only this song as it is.
God will you forgive the
times I was empty
a sinking capsule in the sand
God please listen to me
I need to really
become the music in the waves
so I hear you are good at life long hero saves
I pray now with these
audience members
they probably need you to -
I pray for my friends
that they may have some
peace and some wonderful plans.
I love you God I think
I am supposed to
to trust your there now are you
moving on in
on to the top of my heart the vessle
the sweet spot in my soul
I need you LOUDLY
God come save save me
come save save me so
I can be me !
I can believe
in you
in me
in you
in me
I am free if you are here this can all consuming me.
I want it to stay
so this is how I pray
with my friends all around
they can say it out loud
God thank you
God thank you
Ammachi thanks to you
Amma loves me and Amma holds me and she will bless and warm you too.
AMEN - Or another clever prayer stop word.
Holy?
Hmmm.
Thanks you cool people for witnessing my prayer . I am weird.
xo xo xo
people may not understand but God sees and understand you. Aww am so touched by your prayers, tnx for praying for me. May God grant all your heart desires IJN AMEN
It is not our eloquency that makes our prayers effectual. May the Lord who understands even our groanings answer you with speed and grants All your heart's desires. Amen.
Yeap. I relate.
Sometimes I sit down and try to really tap into spirituality... but then I think about something and then another thing and get distracted.
End up failing miserably.
So, did this work?
Define “work”.
Well, did you feel more of a connection?
Yes, I did- it was brief but it made me cry. It overwhelms me, and usually I take that as my cue to run. I am going to try again today. 🔍maybe in a song instead next time.
I pray that all your prayers should be fulfilled by the GOD.
Thanks for sharing @lorilikes
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.Getting stress out of your life takes more than prayer alone. You must take action to make changes and stop doing whatever is causing the stress. You can learn to calm down in the way you handle things.Without prayer, without faith in the Almighty, the civil rights movement would have been like a bird without wings.I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel alone.We need silence to be alone with God, to speak to him, to listen to him, to ponder his words deep in our hearts. We need to be alone with God in silence to be renewed and transformed. Silence gives us a new outlook on life. In it we are filled with the energy of God himself that makes us do all things with joy. Keep It Up .😊
Lovely prayer. From the bottom of the heart. That takes every heart with it that comes to touch with it. Thanks for sharing and praying for us too. Have a nice day. Lovely photo from amma.
You are always so cool and kind to me. 🦋
Nice @lorilikes.
I wish god will grant you all what you asked. May god always bless you and give you all the happiness in your life.
You are such a good person and you made some precious points on life and you continue to encouraging others by your articles.
Thanks for sharing.
Well said by someone - "The secret to Holiness and Happiness, is a 5 minute prayer!" :)
I liked your prayer and i would love to share it with my friends outside this platform. But only with your permission @lorilikes , Can i?
Sure I would like to know where it ends up though = )
Thank you. :)
people may not understand but God sees and understand you. Aww am so touched by your prayers, tnx for praying for me. May God grant all your heart desires IJN AMEN
Heya - it's a great thing you did here... please never stop letting your light shine out in the darkness... the darkness cannot over come it! Keep praying... never stop. If even you are looking for a prayer encourager, swing by... it happens to be what I'm trying to contribute into "Steem-land." Funny thing is when I responded to you last night on another wholly different idea, I had no idea that I'd find with you someone of common interest and practice. So fun... I think ts part of what I'm most enjoying about my experience here... just kind of tripping into folks and beginning to wonder if it's not part of how God's Spirit 'lives" on the net.... just sort of fun.
Peace
Eric
Thank you. I really needed someone to say exactly those words. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Glad it could be me. You take care and I look forward to whenever our paths next cross. Peace to you.
