Prayer adds Nothing to God
 
Prayer is for our benefit not God’s
It gives us courage
It gives us hope
It gives us inspiration
It gives solutions to problems
It gives peace of mind
It gives inner strength
It gives forgiveness
It gives healing of mind and heart
It nourishes our very souls
It is the doorway to Wisdom
It enables us to know God
  
Let Us Pray
Guide me Lord towards still moments, quiet spaces within. 
Help me to cease my questions, my inner debates and quieten my mind so I can listen to my heart and know the beauty of silence. 
Let me dwell upon your goodness as you nurture my soul in the silent embrace of healing and serenity. 
Let the mystery of your presence embrace all that I am and all that I hope to be.  Remove all that blinds me to your presence and give me the fortitude to move
towards the light.  Rescue me from myself so that I may return to you and rejoice in you help.  You are my God.
