Prayer

When words run out.

Can we pray in colours? If God is Love, and we are Loves children, then when we are caught up in moments of immersion in beauty and the experience of Love are we praying?

The sunset over an ocean.

A moment of noticing the character of light on the leaves of a tree beginning to turn.

A net of sparkling light woven over the surface of the water.

It is not the whole of prayer, but practicing the ability to become aware of these moments might be the foundation  for a more intimate relationship.


For those who are interested , the phrase in this song comes from an experiment described in this paper. The discussion explores the science of sexual desire and cultural norms in late 20th century US college life.
