At some point each day, I find myself speaking to the Grand Creator. We all do - it is why we are here after all, in this sanctuary of truth and faith. And if we have ever prayed, we will have asked ourselves…I suppose it is a presumption on my part, the question; Am I talking to myself? The scripture, that Jehovah is the hearer of prayer, is a question in itself. How? The implications are impossible to consider without accepting the omnipresence of the spirit and the ethereal essence of life having meaning and it’s source, both within and outside of the body. Another issue. Mathew 6. “Give me“ this, give me that, - food, forgiveness, your kingdom here on earth, until prayer becomes a list of requests and thanks based on the assumption - faith - that not only does Jehovah know what we are thinking, but actually pays attention to us. There is only so much thanks and praise that one can give, no matter how genuine, heartfelt and faithful it may be, without, in my case at least, feeling as though prayer gets to lack meaning through our/my own restrictions.
