Prayers of the heart

There is a story that tells that while walking through his garden, the grandfather saw his little grand dauther just as if she was praying, with her legs bend on her knees in front of a tree, her tiny hands were clasped together.

Silently for not interrupting the grandfather came closer, to listen his grandchild. The girl was repeating in disorder the alphabet letters: "....arr, the, a, tea, bee, bee, quiew, you, gee, elle, see, ex, gee, arr, see, m, pee,...". She was repeting in a solemn and full of reverence way, with soft and low voice.

Later that day the grand father asked the little girl what was she doing on her knees in front of the tree. The girl explained: - "I was praying to God, Grandad. But as I do not know well how to pray, then I give God all the letters, as he is God, then he can put them into words perfectly due He knows what I want."

Never forget that the Holy Spirit does not depend on your words. He understands the requests of your heart, and answers them.

For God has given Him the power to translate your prayers of the heart into his language.
