Fulfilling Quotes on Prayer

Bruce Lee Quote

Bruce Lee Quote
Eyes closed heart hurting and hope lost. This is the common profile of a person who is about to pray. Prayer is often the last resort of the most desperate people, which should not be the case. Prayer is one of the most powerful things in this world and it is time for us to realize that it is not just for the weak and the broken. Yes, we pray when we need guidance and when we feel like we have lost our way.

We draw strength from prayers and we usually find the enlightenment we need at the end of it. When we are sad, we pray. When we are angry, we pray. When we are frustrated, we pray. But negative emotions and experiences should not be the sole purpose for praying. Prayer can also be the means for us to say our graces and express our gratitude for all the blessings we have received in our lives.

Rejoicing and saying thank you are also wonderful reasons to pray. Let us learn how to pray for our families, for our friends, for the jobs that put the food on our tables and for all the little blessings we encounter each day. These will enrich our lives further and bring more joy into our hearts.

Silent. Heartfelt. Genuine. These three words make for powerful prayers. Prayers which come from the heart are the most real. They are the ones which are focused on specific details and people in our lives, whether when we are asking for help and guidance or when we are giving thanks for good things that happen to us and to the people we love the most. Prayer often comes from love deep within us, coming forth through our words were spoken out loud or silently in our minds. It is a powerful weapon against negative emotions as well as a joy and comfort to our hearts.
