Respect your prayer

You hear to a prayer every morning. You start your day by hearing to it even while you are getting ready.

You like it so much that you want to hear it everytime. You keep it as your cellphone ring tone.

You feel really good when you keep that photo of your faith in your wallet. Don't you?

You even keep a picture of your faith at your workplace...

This is the sentimental part... Now, lets come to the practical part and see what happens in reality...

You are getting ready in the morning... rushing around with your chores and in the background your prayer is running...

Even if He comes to your house listening to the prayer... He will see you running around and will probably just leave quitely without disturbing you

Someone once told me that whenever we start a prayer we should complete it. Its not nice to leave a prayer in between. Any average prayer is atleast 2 minutes in length.

Now, when you keep your prayer as a cellphone ring tone, will you allow it to ring for the full two minutes everytime the phone rings?

Infact everytime your phone rings, you will pick it up within the first 10 seconds... which means you are interrupting a prayer everytime it plays.

Even if you keep that really respected picture in your wallet... where are you keeping your wallet.

Atleast I know for sure where 99% guys keep their wallet. (And trust me... that place doesn't sit quiet all day long... not a very nice place... is it?)

Please don't get the wrong sentiments because I'm clarifying a few things... you keep His picture in your workplace. Cross your heart and tell me... have you worked with 100% devotion without a single idle thought... without any timepass in your workplace?

My teacher always says... A time for Everything and everything in that time only...

If you are the one who has achieved a great deal of maturity, where every word you utter and every thought which you get is a prayer, if your work is your prayer... then for you every time is prayer time. 

But the rest of us are still bound by the ritual of prayers... where we say a few handed down words with or without knowing their meanings.

If we have to go through the process of prayer, lets respect our prayers and atleast complete them.
