Meditation of my heart – why you don’t need to pray Last week I published an article titled “Answers are never that far”. In the article, I gave a personal experience when I ran away from an answer only to seek, in vain, the very answer in the “hard” stuff. I learnt my lesson. Now, the other day, Brian, my friend ran to his mentor very excited. “I think I have found her,” he smiled widely. “There, seated in a brown dress she is. What do you think of her, can I proceed?” he asked. His mentor looked him in the face. “I am glad you have not given up on the hunting,” he said calmly, giving back the smile. “But Brian, tell me something; why do you think that’s the woman you want to marry?” he asked in love. Brian thought he had reasons but then hesitated. Then he gave one reason, two… looked up in the air searching for the third. He didn’t seem to catch it. He realized his reasons where very weak, too weak for him to base on to make a life time commitment. His mentor had realized that already but wanted to see how far Brian could go in defending something that wasn’t so wise. “I am not convinced, Brian. You need a little more focus,” said Brian’s mentor. Later, my heart was to tell me; “You see, sometimes you don’t need to arrange special time of prayer and fasting but just be alert and sensitive with your Spirit. God will speak to you through a wise brother or sister. What Brian needed was someone to challenge his excitement.” I said, “hmm….ok”
