ACIM Workbook Lesson #358 
"No call to God can be unheard nor left unanswered. And of this I can be sure; His answer is the one I really want." 

Today's lesson tells us why there is no need for audible prayer, constant pleadings, repetitious affirmations, or anything else which falls under the heading of talking to God. All is known to the divine Principle of all being. We can't tell It anything! But we can listen. By this listening we remember who we are and become aware of our purpose. There is nothing other than the Love that is God. When we yield to this fact, wonderful things unfold!

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"Thoughts unspoken are not unknown to the divine Mind. Desire is prayer, and no loss can occur from trussing God with our desires, that they may be molded and exalted before they take form in words and in deeds." 
Science & Health Page 1:1-10
