Prayer is

Prayer is the act and presence of sending this light from the bountifulness of your love

To other people

To heal, free, and bless them.  When there is love in your life, you should share it spiritually

With those who are pushed to the very edge of life.

Prayer

Is not coercing God

it is not ringing the bell for a Cosmic Bell Hop

it is not mere words

spoken into a vast emptiness

it is the sending of love

energy

light

it is opening up the flood gates

so the “spring of living water” might gush forth

and water

parched souls

at times it is

giving food to the food bank

and giving

whatever is needed

to those who are in need
