Private: Reaching a different life

Every human being desires to reach the essence of life, that life which is really worth living, full of success and fulfillments. It is the unspeakable search of man, the desire never to forget nor to leave. Still, in the middle of routine, stress and daily responsibility one can hardly have a time of silence when he can have the opportunity to meditate and see his priorities in life.
Two years ago, when I had these controversial thoughts in my mind, regarding the purpose of life, I received another perspective from my friend from Spain, Fernando Navarro. He started to talk about Bible preaching, predicas cristianas as he called them, and the power of the Bible in the every domain of his life. At the beginning I was shocked than I started to be more open to his advice and wisdom. His preaching was about living the true, the principles from the Bible, practicing the spiritual discipline such as: fasting, meditation, reading the word of God, prayer, solitude. The one which kept my attention was the one referring to prayer, but not only the usual prayer but the walking prayer.
It is important to know that his point regarding walking prayer has its support in Bible, as it exists since the beginning of Christianity. Actually, street prayer represented un important way to spread the word of God.
Walking prayer can be practiced anywhere, anytime. It only depends on your availability to have an open heart, ready for praying, for fighting in your prayer for people who doesn’t know that different life. It is very welcomed in a sweet spring or a sunny summer day, while walking the roads full of people in a big rush, full of stressed people, sick and homeless ones, it is welcomed for such moments to walk and only to pray in your mind to God that these human beings will be saved, helped by the power of the Divinity.
Also, by keeping a heart of praying, you will always be open to what the Providence wants to tell you, wants to learn you and more important what He wants to do through you! It is widely known that prayer keeps you away from the sin, actually it straightens you, giving a pure perspective on people, context, suffering, problems, routine etc.
Thus, a different life can be reached by praying, because prayer enlarge the Kingdom of God and it helps you in every field of your life.
