We've treasures from our past.

Ancient wisdom. understanding and truth may guide us today if we know it as such.

This world's religions and spirituality, en totale, are greatly significant to people into the billions.

Moses, Buddha Shakyamuni Gotama, Yeshua Hamashiach ("Christ Jesus of God") and Muhammad and the helpful messages and teachings they shared are part of this.






 

"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father [the dutiful people of God, those saintly], who [may be] unseen [may not be directly, ordinarily experienced].

Then [the people of God, the peacemakers], who see what is done in secret [who could discern well your needs, your prayer], will reward you [may care, may act compassionately]."

Matthew 6:6

This verse is metaphorical and instructs us to establish and--or seek privacy within ourselves (even in a physical closet if that happens to be wise) to communicate to those who may surely help (as Fred Rogers' mother said, "Look for the helpers.") to accomplish what we cannot or should not do alone.

Of my experience, it may help to pray vocally aloud, aloud in thought, or silently depending upon one's circumstance.

A Co-Op Prayer ---- "pray then like this" Matthew 6:9

For peace and plenty
via good works and fruitfulness
I ask for aid with our needs this day
and likewise I put in my oar!

Shalom

perhaps we need only pray the sentiment of this rather than vocalize it and you may direct this prayer, and others, to Christ of God

alternatively: we ask for aid [...] and [...] we put in our oars!
(this expression means, essentially, to give help)


A Version of "The Serenity Prayer"

for serenity I must accept what is,
what was and what may be sufficiently
some I cannot change now
some I could and even must
I can know this difference and can act as I should

I may need to rise above difficulty in each moment

yet via good works

we may be joyous and happy

(similarly to above, contemplative prayer of this may suffice)
