Be happy that you prayed to God. You invited him, gave him all the things which you normally use every day and every person requires to be clean and energetic. Prayer to God in this way is equivalent to taking care of every person around you. For each person, rest of the creation is God. Of course, you can include yourself also "aham brahmasmi." Love of God is love of people around you. Every devotee of God takes care of people around him with the same devotion and service.

Use your energy to help people. You effort will give you punya, God's grace earned that way will give you punya.

Om tat sat.  (There is only one lord and one truth).
