Sybil MacBeth quote #298 from Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God

As a prayer popper I stay in touch with God. I send lots of spiritual postcards. Little bits and bytes of adoration supplication and information attached prayer darts speed in Gods direction all day long.

Sybil MacBeth quote #44 from Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God

Since words elude me when I need them most I learned long ago that I cannot count on QUALITY time with God when I want to pray. I need QUANTITY and regularity. Quality is not something I can predict. My husband Andy and I might schedule an elaborate evening out with candles and a gourmet meal but there is no guarantee that well have a wonderful time together -- chopping onions peppers die by side in the kitchen reading together on the couch sitting on the front step watching our sons ride bikes and making plans for our life together.

Sybil MacBeth quote #245 from Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God

..when someone says please pray for me they are not just saying lets have lunch sometime. They are issuing an invitation into the depths of their lives and their humanity- and often with some urgency. And worry is not a substitute for prayer. Worry is a starting place but not a staying place. Worry invites me into prayer. As a staying place worry can be self-indulgent paralyzing draining and controlling. When I take worry into prayer it doesnt disappear but it becomes smaller.
