Learning to Pray

To those who say they do not know how to pray, I would first ask who it is they are praying to.  To contemplate that question is to contemplate God as He is in Himself and as He is to us.  That is already the beginning of prayer.

As we contemplate---gaze at--- God, He graciously reveals more of Himself to us.  That is the middle of prayer. 

In the light of His revelation, we see ourselves---who it is that prays.  And that is the end of prayer--to see ourselves as God sees us.
