Prayer for bridges to be mended

Father,

You’ve been working so hard

all this time of the humanity

lost and buried in

its own self-pity and vanity

to build the bridges

at least

since the gaps are only filled with the void

of rage, hatred, selfish arrogance and flawed reasonings.

You’ve been trying ceaselessly,

to build something up from your side,

understandably, You couldn’t bear

any more night seeing us in such agony;

yet Your help has been neglected,

even destroyed

by the self-appointed tour guides of hell.

You’ve never given up,

although, I’m sure You’ve wanted to

start again, on and on

You’ve overcome the feelings:

loneliness, abandonment and accusations.

How do you have that much love inside of You?

I still barely can comprehend

You wish to pass this abundance of heart onto each and every one of us.

You’ve been alone, Father,

for way too long,

and I can’t make false promises

since I’m not like You,

I just want to be like You…

Bear with us, Father,

a little bit longer,

from now on,

there is one day less on Earth

to find Your eternal Home!

Every heart is waiting

to be loved again

Every tear-drop is waiting

to be dried again

Every smile is waiting

to be seen again

Every laugh is waiting

to be heard again

Every lost one is waiting

to be found again

Everybody who suffers is waiting

to be saved again

What about You, Father?

Are you waiting to be loved again?

Are you waiting to see our smiles again?

Are you waiting to hear our laughs again?

I know, you are waiting your tears to be dried

and to feel free inside with an easy heart – at last.

Prayer for the ones behind walls

Dear Father,

You never judge anyone and you have never judged me.

Only the immature judges as the unloved hates.

There are so many behind walls these days.

Even the holy places are locked down for most of the times.

These fortresses are not structures of the heart.

I know, it has always been like this, but I’ve thought and in a way expected we would all get rid of the misunderstandings, rage and enmity by now.

People in need and lack of real opportunities, to whom nobody taught a different practical standard other than their own, they are all forced to leave anything they can love behind. Sometimes for all in their lives.

What is the purpose of this, Father?

It is not just the story of Jean Valjean, when goodness can overcome fear!

I’ve opened my heart and door to anyone who comes and asks.

We are the same prisoners behind walls just we have temporary keys to calm our uneasiness.

And we still believe anything can be really ours?

The greatest thieves are not behind the bars, since they are not the decision-makers who have stolen the future from our children by destroying the world which was not earned by any but given by You!

There are accidents and families, where love was not taught and could have never been present and yes, there are consequences and indemnity. But Father, I’m praying for those, too, since they had a life earlier than the Old Testament. Why anybody is pretending eye to eye is still valid then? Shouldn’t we teach moral and compassion instead? Taking away the freedom is the same as killing, it kills a person’s soul, Father, I’m praying for the incarcerated ones, too! They need to be able to restore their soul to realize how to restore and atone all the things what were caused by them.

A dead man won’t be expected to do anything else from a zombie, Father!

A living, conscious, compassionate, caring soul can rejuvenate a person’s heart and mind and through that they can start the road of redemption.

Father, you never judge but always forgives!

How come that we always judge but never forgive?

I sincerely pray for these people, behind the not-chosen-walls, to meet You Father and understand Your true inner nature and to realize each and every one of us are meant to be like You!

I pray for them to be as real as You are, Father, and have a heart with no walls inside!

Thank you, Father!

Thank You!

Prayer for the Giant on the bus who was like a mountain but his eyes tame and clear

Father,

I’ve been meaning to tell you, how unprepared and vain I was two days ago. I was sick and barely could speak but that is never an excuse, since You chose me and you never let me down in anything I should not others, either.

There was a man on the bus to where we usually never travel. Honestly, I was unable to like him, he was fearful, big, tattooed and dressed as a biker, smoking in the stop, having a grim look and sunglasses.

I didn’t find the place in myself to open my heart unconditionally, I was even accusing him inside why he was travelling that way.

Then, in the crowded coach a young mother offered seat for me and my baby boy, as I recognized she was the only one with a specific ethnic background, yet, she had only the heart of Yours, even helping me with my sleeping toddler, while being nice with her little bit older daughter.

Again Father, I felt so good, since all in my life just people with different backgrounds were unconditionally nice, kind, loving and caring towards me, never the “white ones” – though I’m sure many of them were.

So, Father, imagine, suddenly I felt somebody was tapping my shoulder. As I looked behind my left shoulder, across the aisle there was him, the Giant, the Mountain, smiling at me, showing the sign of the rockers, saying he would have a friend like me.

His voice was loud and clunking, yet clear and well, Father, he was pure. During the next ten miles he was sharing how he would not live long enough to pay back all the goodness he had been given although he had been trying to help children in his work.

Father, I really wanted to talk and share with this young man, whose face showed the story of his life. Yet, I was unable, and I was daydreaming about having a real conversation in the Nature…

I said “Hold on!” to him before he got off, by then others had had the angry face maybe because he seemed to be drunk – I didn’t have that concept. The Giant who looked like a mountain was not wearing his sunglasses any more, he was just unsuccessfully trying to hold back his tears. We waved to each other as friends and I started to pray for him and the young lady with the child next to me.

This is what I’m doing now, Father, again, please give them Your Blessings!

Let them have a long and healthy, content and prosperous, joyful life!

And give, give this man whose life was more than difficult and heavy another chance to meet You through a true representative who will teach him how to connect and grow for good.

Thank you, Father!

Thank you!

Everybody deserves a prayer

Everybody deserves a prayer and Heavenly Parent is waiting for you to see whether you can hear or say a prayer.

Not because you are religious, He couldn’t care less about the institutions.

But because He would like to resonate and live with you in harmony and peace.

He would give you everything He has just to ease your days, no matter what you have been through, He is your Parent, with an absolute attitude.

The everyday life is more than overwhelming, or for way too many, numbing.

Let me pray for you and let me pray with you.

There is a whole new world under the ashes of this disoriented and cruel one where we breath.

It is not vanity to give yourself a chance to evolve and be better, more mature, more capable. Come, Pray with me!

Because everybody deserves a prayer.
