prayer is about noticing
both beauty and pain
and naming these
praying attention
not just talking about praying
but giving our full attention
noticing deeply
and naming what we notice
this changes us from the inside
the beautiful outcome of prayer:
being changed on the inside
pray attention
pray with intention
what a beautiful gift to give each other
what a beautiful way to change our own hearts

with a definitive nod to glennon doyle for introducing me and many others to the idea of praying attention. what a beautiful practice.
