Asking into the mist for things and sometimes they come true, sometimes not, is not an example of real communication.

That's true. It's also not prayer. To transfer your experience onto everyone else is childish. Frankly, my experience with prayer has not been anything like what you describe. Real prayer should be, and for many people frequently is, a very intensely personal, real, two-way exchange with their Creator. It really doesn't matter that their experience does not convince you. If the time comes that you are humble enough to truly pray, you will experience the communication for yourself.

Well said, my friend.
This is a concept that baffles so many people because it can't be proved, only felt, and only felt when we completely and totally humble ourselves at the feet of our Creator.

When you say 'two-way', how do you receive the messages from the deity? Are they visual, sound? Or just some warm and fuzzy feelings?

Is there any way to explain how the deity communicates directly to you?
