Today my prayers are selfless.
We all have heard of the power of prayer, even if you don’t believe in it, it is hard to deny that with earnest effort, prayer can manifest results that could not be reached by any other means. Prayer whether as an individual or as a group can be a powerful thing or tool if you wish to look at it that way.
“I asked God for strength that I might achieve. I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey. I asked for health that I might do greater things. I was given infirmity that I might do better things. I asked for riches that I might be happy. I was given poverty that I might be wise. I asked for power that I might have the praise of men. I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. I was given life that I might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am, among all men, most richly blessed.”
God, I don’t know where we’re going, so would you please drive us there? Rachael
WITHOUT GOD our week would be: Sin day, Mourn day, Tears day, Waste day, Thirst day, Fight day, Shatter day, Seven days without God makes one Weak.
I pray that all people find peace of mind and receive everything I would like myself.
Get down on your knees and pray
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Prayer doesn’t change God’s attitude toward me; it changes my attitude toward God!!!
As distinguished from prayer, meditation is a quiet time, without words. The practice of prayer is asking for something and meditation in the way to seek the answer. Being aware of the right answer is only the first step. It needs to be followed by action. Prayer and meditation are both actions leading to action.
To be centered is to be physically relaxed, emotionally calm, mentally focused and spiritually aware. This awareness opens a direct channel to god and the universe. One way to keep the channel open and to improve my conscious contact with God is to maintain a grateful attitude.
When we pray to God for guidance and inspiration we are sending out energy, thoughts and prayers are energy, with the expectation that the energy we receive is beyond our human will and more in line with what is best for all beings of God. That energy that comes to us in the form of inspiration and direction to our next right action can lead us to the things that we need to have the things that we want.
