kelsey - language praying

One day in class we talked about how even though we have a verbal language it is visually based in that when we pictures words we picture them as they would be written…with spaces and punctuation. I never realized this before, but to some extent I think it is kinda of sad. I feel that our thoughts, especially in relation to language, are limited somehow. Is it possible to think or pray without words? I often try to pray in my head with out words and its really hard. I cant help but wonder if it is actually really possible at all. Sometimes I just emotion (used as a verb) to God but im still not sure If Its just my imagination that im doing this or if I only think I am. Ill keep trying.
