Introduction

When I pray in silence, my soul is like a white dove stretching its wings and flying beyond the horizon, across unknown spaces, towards the sun.

There's so much freedom in praying. It's like giving birth. You go through a lot of pain and struggle, but the peace and joy that follow are infinitely greater.

You start with a tormented and doubtful heart. You don’t know where the prayer is going to take you... sometimesyou’re not even sure whether anybody listens to it or not.

Then, as you pour your heart and soul into it in truth andhonesty, the words start to flow like an enchanted streamacross the rocks.

And they keep flowing and flowing. There are no more boundaries. No more obstacles. Then the tears come. Tears of joy. Tears of hope. Tears of gratefulness.

You can feel your prayer opening doors, breaking locks, knocking down walls, crossing time and space in its wayto the One it is addressed to.

You receive feedback. You can actually feel the heavensopen and your prayer touching the throne of Glory. It is an indescribable experience for someone who has never had it.

You don't need to wait for your prayers to be answered. You already know they have been answered. You can feel the answer inside you, in the ocean of pure light floodingyour whole being, in the sweet touch caressing your soul.

That infinite peace, that soft breeze of divine love thatreconciles all contradictions is the Holy Spirit whisperinggently in your ear.

The moment you are touched and enkindled by it, you nolonger need to believe... You know God is real and he loves you with a love more beautiful than all the love songs of this world.
