Pray an open prayer. Pray a prayer that stretches over the horizon into the furthest fields and deepest voids of your mind.
You have long been in love with the concept of infinity. You long for infinite wisdom. So open your mind before God. Open it with full-color curiosity. Pray prayers with big questions. Pray the prayers you are not even sure how to say out loud.
God can hold them. God is infinite.
Say to God that you are willing to go into the depths. As sure as your late-night dreams take you to endless galaxies and over boundless seas, God's love is even more boundless. So ask the questions you can't ask anyone else. Even if you can't possibly imagine what the answers might be. Feel the beat of your heart as the words leave your lips.
God can hold them. God is infinite.
