The Virgosign on praying

In my opinion, everybody prays.
In all religions. Of all beliefs. Whether proclaimed atheists or non believers, all pray.
Spiritually prayer is from the heart and so most times it’s private, but it also is manifested publicly, aloud and as a congregation, invoking or pleading or asking or thanking God, or Allah, or Buddha, or the Sun, the Moon.....
Praying is a powerful emotion which can be both physical and mental, and even if for the briefest of time, can be a reliever of worry, stress, mental and physical pain, and a support in time of need.
I believe in the power of prayer.
You ?

peace

I beg to differ unless you see talking to yourself as praying. I stopped believing that calling on anything outside yourself for help or support has any affect on your life. I tune into my inner self often when I get tangled up in the dramas of life but won't call that praying as I mostly just listen.
wave Virgo, to be honest I don't really pray ...
I don't distract him away from others that may need him more but I speak to him though .. he's my most reliable friend angel

speaking of which, how is yours?

I very much like Eks answer and it's what I do for the most part...although I do realise there will be certain situation where it's wiser to ask for help.

I have my views on prayer...theres certain things I do within religious realms...certain things I do outside of it ..both bring me peace ..both I will keep doing.
Many believe life is a series of coincidences within a predestined fate, or karma, or fortune or destiny. But but I think life is a series of constant choices, and praying or not praying is just one of them choices.The comments made convince me more that everybody prays....in one way or another. Praying is not necessarily 'asking'. It more 'thanking', because whatever is wrong in one's life, there are many more rights, except the fragility of man does not see it that way. Listening to an inner self is also a form of reaching beyond, to hear advice, or a different take on life. Don't we all think of a dead parent, and talk to them. Isn't that also a kind of praying.
And it's not necessarily talking aloud
Everyday has his / her way, and they're all ok.

IW re my friend ... it's a situation in progress, whichever way it progresses to, but am still thinking of her in my prayers.
Me too heart wings
I believe in the power of prayer.i pray every night.

Thank you both for your comment. Tell the world that praying is rife. And it is a norm for the spiritual nourishment of mankind. As are ‘Please’ and ‘Thank you’ the basis of good form in the physical too. wine
Thanks for that Elle. Peace shouts...kiss
