My first blog = Lessons in loving -Prayer

We are told; Prayer is lifting our hearts, and minds to God. The definition of prayer is, -Worship, supplication, thanksgiving, adoration, petition. ( Getting to know God )  In my book Medjugorje A New Beginning. I wrote about a prayer experience I had in the year 2000. While in prayer I believe, I received six divinely inspired songs, poems and what I call lessons in loving. The fifth lesson in loving, is about prayer. I call it The Healing Prayer.

These are the words I heard in my heart, in poetic form.

 The Healing Prayer
How can I talk to you Lord?
I don’t know where to start.
Start from the very beginning.
Tell me what’s in your heart.
If you could just sit awhile child
And take time to be with me,
You will begin to heal child,
And you will begin to see.

What will I see Lord?
Tell me how will I heal?
My fears are so many,
And my pain is so real.
Just come into my presence,
And take time to be with me,

And you will begin to heal child,
And you will begin to see.

Pray from the heart,
It’s a good start
To heal, and be whole again.
I will be there beside you,
Healing your life again.

Just come into my presence,
And take time to be with me,
You will begin to heal child,And you will begin to see.

I believe this prayer to be very powerful.  I find it very comforting, and healing. Others have also felt the same.

How can we talk to the Lord.? How do we tell him what is on our hearts? Sometimes we have so much on our hearts, we really do not know where to begin in prayer, especially if we have not spoken to God in a long time, or maybe we have never spoken to him personally at all. God tells us to start from the very beginning to tell him of our needs, and concerns?  He speaks to us like a doctor who cannot begin to help his patients unless they open themselves to him. God knows us better than we know ourselves, but he wants us to come to him as a child , who trusts in his father who loves him, and will care for him. God’s love for us is so powerful that when we go to him we begin to heal, and we begin to see.
