As our prayers and thought's go out to the tragic people of Japan who have been devastated by one of natures most awesome catastrophes let us hope that they are given the courage to rebuild a life from the ashes of the earthquake and Tsunami.
PS I came across this wonderful charity scheme that within 2 hr's of the news were sending "shelter boxes " out to Japan .
"Don't you pray for me
you hear!
I don't wanna be saved
and become
as dull as you are."
(note: nothing personal)

Najczystsze przysmaki taniec namiętności harmonijne aniołów śpiewających Brytania,

Wave upon wave of grace
(A Puritan Prayer)
O God of grace,
Teach me to know that grace precedes, accompanies,
and follows my salvation; that it sustains the redeemed
soul, that not one link of its chain can ever break!
From Calvary's cross, wave upon wave of grace . . .
reaches me,
deals with my sin,
washes me clean,
renews my heart,
strengthens my will,
draws out my affection,
kindles a flame in my soul,
rules throughout my inner man,
consecrates my every thought, word, work,
teaches me Your immeasurable love.
How great are my privileges in Christ Jesus!
Without Him I stand far off, a stranger, an outcast.
In Him I draw near and touch His kingly scepter!
Without Him I dare not lift up my guilty eyes.
In Him I gaze upon my Father-God and friend!
Without Him I hide my lips in trembling shame.
In Him I open my mouth in petition and praise!
Without Him all is wrath and consuming fire.
In Him is all love, and the repose of my soul!
Without Him is gaping hell below me, and eternal anguish.
In Him its gates are barred to me by His precious blood!
Without Him darkness spreads its horrors before me.
In Him an eternity of glory is my boundless horizon!
Without Him all within me is terror and dismay. In
Him every accusation is charmed into joy and peace!
Praise be to You for grace, and for
the unspeakable gift of Jesus!
"By the grace of God I am what I am!" 1 Cor. 15:10
Nepal is a country where religious activities to a large extent take place outdoors in busy public places.
Just wanted to share with all of flickr friends that i have got promotion.
Its all because of my family and friends prayers.
Special thanks to my Best Friend for his guidance and all time support.
I believe these are written prayers within Tibetan Buddhism but I'm not sure which "culture village" this was part of. It wasn't in the Tibet area of the park but I know that culture is stong also in neighbouring provinces and peoples.
Please let me know if I'm totally off base here.
Two villagers pray at the church of Santiago Apostol, They wear typical costumes of their people. The altarpiece dating from the seventeenth century.
"Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart."

A prayer wheel is a cylindrical "wheel" on a spindle made from metal, wood, stone, leather or coarse cotton. Traditionally, the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is written in Sanskrit on the outside of the wheel. Also sometimes depicted are the 8 auspicious symbols Ashtamangala. According to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition spinning such a wheel will have much the same meritorious effect as orally reciting the prayers.

The Colegiata de Santa María la Mayor in Ronda, Spain, was built over a 13th century Moorish mosque. Near the entrance are some intricately decorated horseshoe arches remaining from the mosque's mihrab (prayer niche).
