When Paddy the Irishman arrived in Heaven, he had a word
with God. He said ‘I kept my religion,
and said my prayers, and I was a poor man. I prayed to win the lotto for
the family, and you ‘let me down’. God said ,’’the least you could have
done was to buy a tickets’ don’t dare to advise on prayer. Prayer is a gift
of God ,given to everyone, because the human heart is designed by God. The
Divine chip is within us. There is a voice in the heart. St.Joan ,was challenged
by the judge, why he did not hear the voices she speaks about. Joan said,
that the voices are there ,but you don’t listen. We are too distracted to listen.
People who know about prayer advise us to be still..Silent. When I walk in
the park, I wonder ,if plugging my ears makes this silent, still moment. Personally,
I prefer to look at people, especially babies, to notice the dog, hear the
birds sing, feel grass under my feet ,see the playing teams. To look, touch,
smell ,is to awaken wonder, and a spirit within. A trillion bits and pieces
in the human ,get together ,to make one breath. God is in our experiences
all the time, prayer people tell us, and Jesus teaches ,in today’s story...,the
Fathers Loving compassion to me, and through me to others is there always.....all
in the daily bread routine, of bothersome friends, constant searching .I am
sure that parents with little children, in constant care, pray instinctively..O
God help me ...what am I going to do ...what’s best. I like the one line
prayers myself ..O Thank God.....A Lovely meal-drink ...a great day ..A beautiful girl...man ..A darling baby, a smiling flower,
a giving heart.....A LOVING FATHER.
