Prayer

As meditation is the act of communing with God through listening, prayer is the act of communing with God by talking to IT. Both aspects of communion and communication are equally important.

Prayer should be different than other forms of communication with our others - our angels, spirit guides, dragons and fae. Communication with the most High One should have a sacred more holy feel to it, familiar of course, but extremely reverent and respectful.

To talk to God or pray - sit comfortably, close your eyes and completely relax for several minutes. When you are ready talk out loud or whisper. The Most High can hear the faintest of whispers. It feels funny to speak out loud when it feels like no one is there. But God is listening and IT loves every spark of your being.

Tell God everything. Pour your heart out when you are sad, tell IT your hopes, desires, concerns and shortcomings. There is nothing that you can’t tell God, for IT wants to hear everything you have to say.

God is the only one who knows your thoughts. No other being, entity or human can read your mind. Your mind is private and sacred, holy ground between you and The One. So if you feel too uncomfortable talking out loud to God, think your prayers.

You can also write your prayer in a book. Either a pretty journal or a section in your Book of Shadows. This will help you see how far you have come and where you are going. Also, you can go back a read the prayers again when you need them.

If you want to have a relationship with God, it is important that you both talk and listen to God each day like you would anyone else you are in a relationship with. Listen first and then talk.
