Where do you find it most rewarding to pray?

[greblc]

I find the solitude of the Woods or Trout Stream bring me closest to God.

1. That's lovely

[lastknowngood]

2. That's because you are then within the being of god

n/t

[havocmom]

3. in the privacy on my own head

but I like it best when me 'n my head are out in nature. Feeds the senses, puts me in my place in the world, touches the sacred.

21. I like at night in bed before I fall asleep

That's when I'm a lone and when nobody is bothering me. I used to love to go bike riding and just think about various stuff with my life. I haven't been on a bike trail in a long time. Sometimes I miss it.

22. I had to read your post twice...

"Head" is a Bathroom in the Marine Corps and Navy.

I do agree.

4. how about to connect with god, be one with source

pray. i dont get pray. pray in and of itself is to ask for something, and if you have faith, in divine plan, then all is as it should be, exactly what is there to ask for. ask for patience, then god is going to zap something to you that will require patience.

anyway to be one with god, source, lite, i turn to the sun. i see a language, hear a song in the sun. i equate son to christ conscious. i ahhhhhmmmmmm, bring in sound, to sun, let it fill me up, warm me, allow me to be in stillness, thank the universe for all it gives

8. I don't generally ask for anything when I pray.

Most of the time it's just a "Thank You" for something.

A Beautiful Day, My Families happiness, or even a nice fish.

6. In the woods or overlooking the MTS. Anywhere in nature.

7. Not all DUers pray.

You may want to direct this question to a subforum or something.

10. Don't be grouchy.

[greblc]

13. Sorry,

The General Discussion topic of the evening seemed to point towards religion. Point taken.

[Steely_Dan]

9. Uhhhhh

Oh....Uh, I don't pray.

[Jersey Devil]

11. Yankee Stadium

And apparently I didn't do enough of it before Game 7 last year.

As another poster suggested, wouldn't your post be more appropriate in one of the group forums regarding religion?

[Mr_Spock]

12. This definitely belongs in religious forum

[greblc]

16. Can It be moved or should I repost it there?

[Mr_Spock]

17. Mine always got moved by the moderators

& mine were more topical to daily events - there isn't always consistency though - don't worry about it

[adwon]

14. Pacing and smoking

And, no, I'm not kidding. :P

[LiberallyInclined]

15. playgrounds...bus stations...jr. high schools....

18. On my hikes...

I usually take a moment to stop and medidate/pray amongst nature.

19. Mother Theresa used to talk about her favorite anecdote.

She said that when she was young she used to tell the Lord what she planned to do with her life. Before she died she used to joke, saying, "And then He told me what He had planned for me." She had a great sense of humor.

20. Nature girl, here...

I look for "cathedrals" made up of trees, water, mountains, meadows...I tend to feel "closed in" in churches. Not to say I can't pray there, but I always feel closest to the Creator when I am fully surrounded by the natural world. There is a semi-pagan slant in me, for sure.

23. outside or inside with all my dogs in my lap.
