Affirmations For Living, November 1, 2012
The difference between prayer and meditation can be understood by saying that during prayer, we ask God for something, and during meditation, God speaks to us. Most people just keep praying all the time or always make noise or always talk, and God has no chance to guide you. Is it any wonder that your prayers can sometimes go unanswered. God has no opportunity! Today I am joined by Rev. Ernie Martin a interfaith minister who will guide us through the ins and outs of both prayer and meditation.
Guest, Ernie Martin
