The Prayer of Nature

PrayerOfNature-150x150“Why must people kneel down to pray? If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I’d do. I’d go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I’d look up into the sky—up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I’d just feel a prayer.”
― L.M. Montgomery

  1. I experience prayer when I am facing the toughest struggles of my life or the life of someone I love, and again when I am overcome by the amazing beauty of the natural world. Pryer happens. I don’t make it happen.

  2. Where ever and when ever you are awed by nature is a good time to pray and recognize the divine.
