Just one sentence, do you understand it?

Theists:
If God is everywhere, including “in your heart,” why would you need #prayer, houses of #worship, #holy books, or clerics?

Today in BoneQuest History for May 2nd 2012 "PRAY UNDER ME" https://bonequest.com/4874 #bonequest #deuce_pants #drunk_deuce #huffy_pants #prayer #urine

Been working on creating an ecumenical #Rosary that uses #romancatholic #rosarybeads but is modified to be usable for #meditating with regardless of one’s #Christian tradition. Finally finished that project during my lunch break today! Would love to see if anyone is willing to trial it and let me know your thoughts. If you do try it out please comment and let me know your thoughts.

What is the right way to pray for me?

I’m not sure there is one. Which may be why my #prayerlife feels inadequate. I may not like the status quo however I do like having at least some basic rules or guidelines for things. That way I know when I’m breaking them. I don’t really feel like I have any guidelines for #prayer

Being #Episcopalian I do like community prayer, the kind done during worship services. I also like the prayers included in the Daily Offices of Prayer for All Seasons & the St. Helena’s Breviary, which are the 2 prayer books I use mostly frequently (aside from the #BCP ) That said, I’m not convinced every prayer done in a group or in public needs to begin with “the Lord be with you” It feels to formal or something for extemporaneous prayer.

I’ve been told that prayer is like a conversation with God, in which case, I pray a lot, although I don’t always address God by name. Some might call it thinking but there is a difference #ContemplativeKnitting #Introduction

During the liturgical season of Easter, I’m using the book CONTEMPLATIVE KNITTING as my daily devotional & discipline. My reasoning behind this is two-fold. First, my #prayer life could be better, or at least more robust. I don’t pray without ceasing, however, I almost knit that way. Maybe the habit will rub off. And second, as I have alluded to, I am starting a #FiberArts business, specifically #Knitting & #crochet One of the things I am determined to do is only do business with individuals & organizations who share my values. This discipline will help me identify & explore them.

#ContemplativeKnitting is not your typical devotional although the author, #JulieCicora is an #Episcopal priest. To get through to the chapter on #Evangelism by #Pentecost I’ll need to read a couple chapters a week. Each chapter contains questions for further reflection, so I will be tooting my #SpiritualReflections as I encounter them. If you want to join my journey, the #book is: https://bookshop.org/a/13969/9781640652620

Theists:
If your god is omniscient, then:
• You don’t have free will
• You can’t please him
• #Prayer is totally unnecessary

Gracious Lord
God of the roads
Where travelers walk
Merchants carry their wares to market
And thieves search for their marks

Gracious son of Zeus
Angelic lord of the range
Of the pastures for grazing
The goats on the hills above
And the farmers keeping them

Gracious Hermes
Son of Maia
Thief of the sacred cattle
Creator of the lyre
A gift to the radiant Apollo

Gracious Psychopompos
Leader of the somber parade
Of the shades of those now gone
Down into the Earth
Where Hades and Persephone await

Wenn #Christofaschisten „beten“:

#Prayer.

Prayer. The firepower of God’s saints, besides all of the guns and ammo they stockpile under their beds. When Christofascists everywhere call on the power of prayer, shit happens. Well, usually. Often? Occasionally? Coincidentally?
