“As prayer may be likened to recharging the spiritual batteries of the soul, so worship may be compared to the act of tuning in the soul to catch the universe broadcasts of the infinite spirit of the Universal Father.” 1621§7

“Worship is for its own sake; prayer embodies a self or creature interest element; that is the great difference between worship and prayer. ... We do not worship the Father because of anything we may derive from such veneration; we render such devotion and engage in such worship as a natural and spontaneous reaction to the recognition of the Father's matchless personality and because of his lovable nature and adorable attributes.” 65§5

“...while in true praying it is the sincere and trusting communication of the spiritual nature of the creature with the anywhere presence of the spirit of the Creator." 1001§5

“Words are irrelevant to prayer ... God answers the soul’s attitude, not the words.” 1002§4

“...prayer is not a process of getting your way but rather a program of taking God's way, an experience of learning how to recognize and execute the Father's will...” 1946§2
