To adore but not seek to fathom — perhaps in those words lies a clue to loving God with all my soul. So often I line up my prayers like the closing arguments of an attorney, in an attempt to fathom. Why are some people blessed and some cursed? Why does God permit so much evil and violence? How can I trust what I do not see? What is the meaning of life? By bringing us into the presence of God, and giving us a glimpse of the view from above, prayer radically changes how we experience life.
