» To pray is to let go of our belief that we are in control of our life
The only thing we can really ask for when we pray is the ability to trust in [the] greater purpose. We pray to have our hearts opened and our purpose revealed. We pray for gratitude when our life is good and for faith when it is not so good. We pray to trust that our pain is a gift with "a very, very specific purpose."
To pray is to let go of our belief that we are in control of our life, and to give it over to something more inclusive than our own point of view. It requires a leap of faith. Even if we have only the slightest sense that a higher power is at work in the world, we can still pray. We can name that gossamer belief 'God' or not. We can pray to God or to our own larger perspective -- the part of us that trusts in the meaningfulness of life.
