Hello ,
A humorous story is told of three men were talking about prayer in general and the appropriate
and effective positions for prayer. As they were talking, a telephone repairman was working on the phone system in the background. One man shared that he felt the key was in the hands. He always held his hands together and pointed them upward as a form of symbolic worship.
The second suggested that real prayer was conducted on your
knees. The third suggested that they both had it wrong--the only position worth its salt was to pray while stretched out flat on your face.
By this time the phone man couldn't stay out of the conversation any longer. He interjected, "I found that the most powerful prayer I ever prayed was while I was dangling upside down by my heels from a
power pole, suspended forty feet above the ground."
The bible tells us to pray without ceasing. That means that we are always in an attitude of prayer, talking with our best friend as we go along in life. Prayer is not posture (although getting on our knees is not a bad thing.) Prayer is communication with the Creator of the
universe who loves us and wants to listen.
Have a great day and God bless!
