In that context, when I actually say a prayer, however inadequately, I am simply articulating something that is just a verbal expression of all the rest, or makes sense in the context of the rest.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/><BR/>BenBen Witheringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06017701050859255865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11840313.post-40317346079553387292007-07-15T18:36:00.000-07:002007-07-15T18:36:00.000-07:00Ben,Thanks for posting these.

If I had been reading these with anyone else they might have been humorous but reading these alone in silence as I have been the past couple of weeks as my wife has been out of town, they brought tears to my eyes and I found myself praying along as I read down through the page. I finally broke down at the one that said he thinks about God even when he's not praying and I told God that I do too, because I rarely pray, but I wanted him to know I thought about him. Talk about a book of 'common prayer'! I've been searching for some book or something to help me pray as I have a hard time with it. Maybe something this simple is part of the answer.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03349302232084350190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11840313.post-89824007197773612922007-07-15T13:52:00.000-07:002007-07-15T13:52:00.000-07:00Hey Ben;Love your site, it's the first time I've b...Hey Ben;<BR/><BR/>Love your site, it's the first time I've been on.
