In worship when someone says,
“Will you pray with me?” or “Let us pray,” I assume the position…head bowed,
eyes closed, ears attentive and an amen on the tip of my tongue. In liturgical
churches prayers are scripted and worshippers read along with the prayers as
the father or priest reads them aloud. I know because I peeked during one such
corporate prayer and discovered I was only one with my head bowed while everyone
else was reading along in the book. Let me admit that the Spirit within me
leaped for joy when one of the prayers was the Lord’s Prayer and I could close
my eyes, pray in unison with the congregation and say amen!
