I cannot imagine anyone in the entire cosmos more intelligent, more mature, more
sensible, more reasonable, more dignified, or more superior than the one who
imagined it all, designed it all, and constructed it all to begin with. That being the
case, to wit: the supreme being is a genius without par; then we should be talking
to Him with no less respect for the head on His shoulders than we give our spouses,
our BFF and/or our associates.
In other words: I think it safe to assume the supreme being is a well-adjusted man
for all seasons, so to speak, rather than a quirky, kooky, imbalanced psychopath.
So then, one's prayers should incline towards rapport; defined by Webster's as a
friendly, harmonious relationship especially a relationship characterized by
agreement, mutual understanding, or empathy that makes communication possible
or easy. For example:
● Heb 4:16 . . Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace.
The Greek word translated "boldly" basically pertains to all out-spokenness, i.e.
frankness and/or bluntness. In other words: transparency, candor, and straight
talk, heart to heart, as people seeking meaningful diplomatic relations ought.
NOTE: If perchance it hasn't become obvious enough already; then I should point
out that the kind of social interaction I'm talking about here cannot be achieved by
means of connectivity like rosaries, missals, and/or siddurs.
