#1 To talk to God, we must first examine our own God concept. In our early attempts to talk to God, we may sense the god we were raised with looming over us, clouding a sense that we have a direct line to a supportive force.

#2 When we learn that God is a loving God, we change our behavior. We would be eager to receive God’s attention, and we would dare to share our dreams with him.

#3 We must exchange our punishing God for a God of love. We can do this by drawing inspiration from the natural world. Music is a dependable source of inspiration that moves the listener to higher realms.

#4 A casual, daily conversation with God is something many of us assume is beyond our reach. But for those raised religious, God is God, and should be addressed properly.
