This is all I know

“The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.”

― Søren Kierkegaard

prayer

such an odd thing

sometimes like talking to a wall

at other times

there is that sense

sometimes vague

sometimes intense

that a connection has been made

to what?

to whom?

God only knows!

it raises the question doesn’t it?

is there someone out there?

up there?

I think a lot about these things

and I have decided that for all

my education and training

I know very little

except this

God is not out there

Up there

The Sacred dwells

inside me

it roams the corridors of my mind

looking for a chance encounter

with me

and when we meet

magic

grace

call it what you will

when we meet I am changed

and when I am changed

my world is changed

all

is

changed

and grace

becomes

a

lifestyle
