However here are three pointers to the meaning of prayer. At a personal level, prayer is simply an expression of our feelings and desires which are directed to the Almighty. Prayer is a means of discovering and developing a relationship with God. The mere process of spending time with another being encourages a subtle dialogue of revelation. Through this interaction awareness of the Creator slowly increases.
Prayer is a powerful act of creation.
Through prayer we are moved. Feelings crystallize into ideas, which in the fullness of time produce a result. In prayer this process is infused by the fragrance of God. Our meagre stirrings can be transformed into outcomes far greater than our wildest expectations. Each of us has to work out what prayer means to us.
