In alanon we realize the importance of prayer. We may pray many times a day. We may pray night and day asking for guidance to making changes in our lives or for help in a troubling situation.
Prayer is a reaching out to make contace with a power greater than ourselves. In acknowledges our personal helplessness, which has been demonstrated to us so often in our efforts to find peach and serenity.
Today's Reminder
Prayer is the contact I make with God in my thoughts. Its a power medicine for the spirit. Prayers for guidance are perhaps the most potent of all, providing I keep myself receptive and am willing to act according to his will.
"All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on God. It is a deep and vital contact with him. It is when we pray that we reall are". Thomas Merton, No Man is an Island.
