Surfing is one of the last things you'd want to do naked. But I started thinking about what kind of bumper sticker I would put on my car. Before you write me off as one who practices kinky religious rituals, let me explain what I mean. The only true prayer is naked prayer. True prayer, then, is to open oneself completely to God, to strip oneself of all masks and pretense, and to come to God naked-naked to the heart.
Nakedness is just a state of heart.
The ideal state of human life as expressed in the Bible is one of complete nakedness and openness without shame. The first thing Adam and Eve did after their disobedience was to hide themselves from each other and from God. We are no different today. We spend a lot of energy each day hiding ourselves from others and from God so they won't see us as we really are in all our hurt, weakness and shame. Most of us have plenty of dirty laundry inside-sins and struggles which we keep hidden away, hoping nobody will see.
