Prayer

Why do we plant the seeds of doubt in our children's minds?

Why not allow them to find the power inside themselves and not teach them to give that power away?

Most of us have given up ascribing bad actions to Satan, or devils. When do we do the same with good ones?

Instead of turning God into a distant super man with man-like limitations like jealousy and ego and capriciousness, why not accept that this power really might have created us in its own image and it exists all around, inside and outside of us? In a sense we are as much God as we are Smiths, or Browns. We are our father's, or mother's, children.

Obviously we have not grown into many God-like powers. Our abilities manifest so randomly that we ascribe our inability to control them to mean they are not ours in the first place. What if we nurtured them instead? Believed in them?  Prayer appears to work.

Just maybe not the way we think.
