Pray From The Depths
“Prayer can be said with the lips. It can be said aloud. It can be uttered within the mouth, or in the throat. It can also be said from the heart. Instead of vocal cords, the strings of the heart can be sounded, sending forth the cry of the spirit. It doesn’t matter. What’s important is that we bring forth prayer from out of the depths. What matters is that a cry should come forth from the depths, which, like a little roar, like an earthquake, will shake the heavens and finally force God to answer, and say to us, ‘Why do you cry to Me?’”
Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra
