Some people pray more emotionally with much compassion and tears, some are much more warrior like and militant with their prayers; others still are very quiet and reflective communicating with God in apparent silence - Rachel Hickson (Super natural communication
For the first time since REAL I have managed to sit down with Supernatural communication by Rachel Hickson properly and dive into the world of prayer, and this little section really spoke to me. There have been countless times where I've been crying out to God for help and seen no apparent answers. Then one day something emotionally devastating will cross my path and I find myself just crying, with no words coming out of my mouth, just sat there in tears, and within the next week something spectacular will happen and my life will start to make sense. God has answered my unspoken prayers. How crazy is that?! There are times when I'm at Church and I see people on their knees with tears streaming down their face, praying, hoping and crying for a way out of their troubles. I found from personal experience that praying empty prayers isn't going to reach God's ears, because he knows you don't mean them. But prayers from the heart are the ones God will answer.
"Simple prayers from a hungry heart will reach the heart of God" - Rachel Hickson.
When my parents split up I was nowhere near considering going to Church. Things were going wrong and I often found myself crying, and then suddenly a friend asks me to join LIFE, then I get invited to Church, and now I'm so intrigued by my Christian journey that I'm hungry for more. I don't recall praying to God to help me get out of my emotional exhaustion, but he did it anyway, because he heard the cries that my heart couldn't put into words.
This doesn't however, mean I'm saying you should stop praying, there is no wrong way about doing "prayer" what I am saying, is if you want to pray, but you have no idea what to say, let your heart speak, let the words come truthfully from your heart.
