Prayer is the upward motion of The Being to meet the downward motion of the Eternities ... in true prayer the Soul is in motion ... it is a Divine yearning for reality.
... through prayer you can change yourself. You can change the conditions around you ... You can affect atmospheres. Prayer is an essaying to find oneness with God and it is never self-seeking. It is a motion towards union with Him. |
'O Love Transcendent! Thou dost never forget Thy children, nor withhold Thy blessing; help us all to remember Thee. Help us to come into the consciousness of Thy Great Love ... We would be Thine, 0 most Glorious One! For we would live to embody Thy Glory, and reveal Thee in all our service.'
