private prayer together

not corporate prayer
but praying together
private prayer together
crying out to God
in fervent prayer
a cacophony to my ears
a gathering at Babel
but this must be how it is
every second in heaven
individual prayers raised up
praise and petitions
all lifted simultaneously
to our God in heaven

forty+ voices praying simultaneously
our individual prayers modeling (a bit)
on the Korean UMC practice
Bishop Day

and Rev. Dr. Pat MacHugh
