I pray to be heard
I meditate to listen for that which needs to be heard
In both instances I am spending a special time with my God to the exclusion of all else. In my normal activities I manifest that which has been heard through my actions and thoughts. Being human the road to perfection is always under construction and causes me to think about that which will be part of my pray and meditation.
I remember telling my mom - I think we're all on the same road. We all believe we are on a journey, and it will not end with our deaths. I may not have been as close to God as she was. She may have been walking right next to him, and I may have been walking on the shoulder of the road.
But it was the same road.
I do not know if there is a measure who is closer to God than another. For me it is a state of being, rather than a cognitive approach to my relationship with God.
