When we pray, we are sending a request for help to God. What happens when we pray? Micro-Catholicism helps us see the power of prayer.
The simple fact is that we do not even know how we are able to talk to another person.
We have desires. Our desires turn into thoughts. Our thoughts turn into words. We breathe out through our larynx. Our tongue and mouth turn the energy of air passing through our larynx into words.
No one knows how that incredible complexity happens. But, we know that it does.

We discovered that we needed a key. We couldn’t find it. No one could help us find them. So, we asked God. The same thought that would have gone to another person now goes to God.
That thought went into our brain. Then, it went out of our brain. It went to God. What is it that goes to God?
We see that the prayer has to be something.

We do have a dim idea of atoms and electrons. We know of radio-waves. Our thoughts are something between electrons and radio-waves.
