PRAYER

As a child, I was told, Prayer is a rising up of the heart and soul to God...
I believe this and yet prayer is not always 'available' in my mind-set.
It's so much easier to talk to someone, face to face and be able to read the effect of our words on their face and body language.
When it comes to talking to God, the effect depends on the state of our soul and how strong our belief system is in relation to the Presence of God.
Simple Faith takes simple efforts.
However, Faith is not always simple.  We are complex human beings with mind/ body and spirit.
Some of the saints were even quoted as saying.  'The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.'
Perhaps, the answer to prayer is simply to pray and hold on to our innocent and almost childlike belief in the Goodness of God.
let's raise our hearts and souls to God as best we can.
