There are thoughts which are prayers. There are moments when, whatever the posture of the body, the soul is on its knees.

Prayer is where the action is.

Prayer is a thought, a belief, a feeling, arising within the mind of the one praying.

Prayer's important, not just as some kind of a metaphysical exercise, but I think it's a way to refresh one's own mind and motive. If you're praying, you're really looking beyond your own personal thoughts and the pressures that are around you.

Prayer is a privilege and the soul's sincere desire. We can move beyond routine and 'checklist' prayers and engage in meaningful prayer as we appropriately ask in faith and act, as we patiently persevere through the trial of our faith, and as we humbly acknowledge and accept 'not my will, but Thine, be done.'

When life knocks you to your knees, and it will, why, get up! If it knocks you to your knees again, as it will, well, isn't that the best position from which to pray?

Prayer opens the heart to God, and it is the means by which the soul, though empty, is filled by God.

I often find myself on my knees praying to something or someone to not be in control.

Prayer is an act of love; words are not needed. Even if sickness distracts from thoughts, all that is needed is the will to love.

It is not the body's posture, but the heart's attitude that counts when we pray.
