I think we pray because we don’t already have grace enough, or think we don’t have enough, mostly because we don’t count our blessings we already have. We do not see the opportunities in the troubles we have been given, because our troubles are only as much as we can handle or need to handle at this point in time in growing up to becoming better humans. Biblically, it’s called goating the seven mountains or dashami cycles in becoming dashavatharas in maintaining the dharma of being human. Mindfully going about our daily activities respectfully, honourably dignifiably is also called as bhakti - that which brings the light on in oneself or another. A good nice genuine innocent smile brought on the face of yourself or another is also turning the infant christ on or the grace of godliness on in the experience of living for another, and that is prayer enough without having to pray at all. Grace would come seeking to be around you because you honor another as you would your self as god. When you share this with others, they stand to share the wellness possible from living life such. You don’t wish people as long as you are mindful that it is you who is going to get what you wish for by going out to others, coz what goes around comes around. You should be ready to eat what you pass around and share what is so good that it is a crime not to share because of the wellness it brings about that others deserve to have.
