Why do we pray?

Remember that Communication is two way – you have to convey your message, but you also have to LISTEN to the other person’s message. When we think about our earthly family:

  • We love our parents and we need to show our love for them
  • We know that they love us and we feel overjoyed when we experience their love for us.
  • Our parents would guide us to do the right thing and take the right path.
  • They would explain things when we don’t understand and we question them.
  • We would want to thank our parents when we are given a gift or a helping hand.
  • Our parents care for us when we are sick or when we are in trouble.
  • They would advice us how to keep away from trouble.

These are the same reasons why we communicate with God or pray to God.
