What if prayer is more about God than it is about us? What if we’re even more oblivious than we first thought? Julian suggests that the effort is really all on God’s part. It’s not a matter of us running to God’s castle in the clouds and pounding on the door and begging on scraped knees to be admitted inside, but that God is always there, always already ready to receive us, just like the Prodigal Son parable.
This is inspired by the nineteenth chapter of Julian of Norwich's short text, Revelations of Divine Love.
