So, the Universal Life Force which I took to be god, is after all not the same as god. The Universal Energy is Love for All and not an entity in itself but a mass of all that is. God is an entity, some may not like me saying so but it is man-made. Yes, it is big, but only as big as all the humans which subscribe to its’ existence. God is real, as are other entities which we create in our daily lives. But god does not create, we do, the Universe does, through us. Whether we pray to god and ask it our whims and fancies or not, we are the ones who create those whims and fancies.

The whole world knows by now, we create our own reality.
What you believe is what you’ll get. And if you believe in god an entity, that is what you’ll see, or have faith in, but it, god, like any other creation or entity, only has what power we feed it with; be that good or not so good; our given energy is eaten up by the entity.
Some have called devils or demons that which we create as opposed to what god creates. Probably because most people put all good creations in the hand of their god, but also because it was understood that we do literally create beings and entities of our selves, we were scared to recognise the fact.
The truth is, devils, if that’s what you want to call a man-made entity, are neither good nor evil; the same goes; only the energy you feed it makes it who it is.
If a thing is discovered, a life of its’ own, an energy opposing your own, the natural tendency towards such is just ignorant fear; which the thing grows on and so self perpetuating it goes on.

When we pray, then, (if we so feel we should) we should only pray that the Light of the Universe would shine through our every thought and deed. The Light being the life force and Love so elusive at times. We should pray that what we create as the days go by, be of benefit to as many people as possible and for the higher good of All.

I don’t believe that the Universe needs worshipping. But if you chanced upon a delicately beautiful flower in the midst of a great and breathing forest, stopping to admire and wonder at the amazement of such treasures is within even the hardest heart and fully human in response.
Gods only need worshipping because they know their nature - they need belief to survive and to be. But what they are these days is limited; limited by the tiny minds of men who cannot make miracles anymore.
