For your prayers to reach God, affix the stamp of ‘faith’ and address it with ‘love’. With faith and love, your prayers will reach God regardless of distance. Also, your love for God must be pure and unsullied. Prepare yourself to face God’s tests. In life, all of you are tested on how much you are attached to ephemeral worldly attractions and how much you yearn for God. The sooner you pass these tests, the nearer you will get to God. There can be no spiritual advancement without passing God’s tests. If your love for God is a tiny fraction of your love for mundane gifts, how do you expect God to shower His grace on you? Turn your faith away from the temporal and the transient to the unchanging eternal reality. Out of the many hours you waste thinking about worldly attachments, if you think of God even for a few moments, how much more beneficial would that be?
