March 30, 2008: Where is There – Michael Hidalgo

Heaven seems like such a distant thing. It is something that is so far away from us. So to even thing about praying to a God who is there seems impossible. But what if heaven was right here? What if the miracle of prayer is not that we ascend to God but that God comes here to us? What if heaven is all around us, and that maybe we could make sense of it if we were just still long enough to pay attention? Understanding where there is may just be the beginning of prayer - and maybe there is here and we are just unaware that God is in our midst.
