Do you pray? May you pray? Have you ever prayed? Do you believe in something beyond us? Believe in a supreme power that can change anything when you feel that nothing here on earth, you can not help? I believe in something.In Someone more exactly! I do not pray because of fear or hypocrisy ,i not pray because I learned it's better to pray. But i trying to be good. A good man. It's good to have a friend up there, above all and all. A true friend. Eventually all we'll get back there. And not convenient to wait there someone you know? Why we open dialogue just before we go there, up? Do you believe in something? In Someone? What? Why? Since when? Until when?

There have been times in my life I've don t wanted to pray any more, because I thought I pray for nothing,i was sure that nobody listened and thought that my voice is lost in vain ... was a big mistake, and i assume this mistake; I need to pray and i do my best to pray, for there must be, I was disappointed few times in my life, and I refused to believe in God, just because I was hit WHEN I DON T deserve, I was wrong again, I needed to be hit, to get up again and learn to pray.

Hi marianna, I too believe that there is more to life than what see here. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. For me life itself is a continuous prayer. I was born and raised a Christian and spent the greater part of my life involved with the church but I can no longer except all it's teachings. I now feel that we are all one and that it doesn't matter what religion one is a member of, or if one even believes in God or an afterlife. There is no need to have a special time for prayer or to mouth words, when the infinite mind knows us better than we know ourselves. I feel that all life is in some way connected and that we are all one with God. Blessings.

I don't have a specific time when I pray, I just pray when the spirit hits me, and when I feel like talking to God. I also never get in a particular position to pray, I just pray. I know God hears me regardless of how, when, where or why i pray, so I just pray when I think I need to.

Hi marianna, I believe that live itself is a prayer and therefore we are praying all the time. If you are grateful for life and for family, friends etc. that is a prayer of thanks. If you want your children to do well in life that is a prayer of supplication. It is the same if you want a sick friend to get well. Prayer does not have to be in words.Blessings.
