PRAYER
Prayer is a form of communion or communication between God and man. It is a conversation between you and your Creator. You reveal your innermost secrets, requests, needs and problems to God and GOD reveals His will to your mind.
You acknowledge your faults and shortcomings with the assurance that He is a merciful God. In return, you experience the satisfaction of forgiveness. At times, your prayers are words of gratitude and glorification to God for His benevolence to you. Regardless of what type of prayer you offer, when it pertains to you 'personally, it is a private prayer.
There are also our public prayers or worship and these are offered by the church; a group of people who proclaim the same beliefs and make the same requests to God. The culmination of the public prayer is the Divine Liturgy.
