it is through prayer

“It is through prayer… that one will be given the most powerful light 

to see God and self.”     ~ Angela of Foligno

… for it is through the deep silence of prayer that I am best able to see God and not some illusion of my own making.
… for it is through prayer that I am able to be my most vulnerable before God, and thereby see my Self.

… for it is through prayer that I give up the illusion of control and abandon myself into the Light that enlightens all things.

… for it is through prayer that I become most receptive to the voice of the Holy speaking in the silence of my soul.

… for it is through prayer that the tools of self-understanding become transforming forces within my life.

… for it is through prayer that I can give up the illusion of my desires and see you as light and love.

… for it is through prayer that I can experience our connectedness and know you and I are truly one.

Prayer returns me to my Self, to who I already am and to who I am becoming.

Prayer reminds me of what I truly long for and my role it bringing it about.

Yes, it is through prayer that I am given the most powerful light to see God and to see my Self. What a beautiful invitation.
