God as Verb not an Object
In our prayers, we pray through Christ; we do not pray to Christ. Jesus did not want it this way. He spoke many times about not getting to the father except through Him. This gives us clear indications that Jesus did not want praise; He invited us to use Him to pray to God, the living God.
Like Jesus, we ourselves are mere conduits to God. through our prayers and meditations for others, we are bringing ever-loving God into the lives of those in need of spiritual blessings. God enables us to bring His love to all we meet; this is an eternal love that Jesus promises will never end.
As with all conduits, I pray that I will have the strength to understand and bring the depth and dimensions of God’s eternal Love to all whom I meet on my daily journey through life.
