simple prayers

Building my relationship with God/Spirit through prayer, I have been able to build a clear pathway to receive my own guidance, heal myself, and create a better everyday life. There are no limits to the areas of life I have received guidance. I am truly grateful.

Praying has been a powerful way of building my relationship with God. I have found it to be a multi step process as well as it being a major component to both the creative and healing processes.

Part of the learning and teaching I received from God through meditation was to first be very clear on your desire(s). We have the opportunity throughout our lives to create all our desires. This seems so simple, but I know many who do not believe this to be true. I also know that I did not always know this simple truth.

After a desire has become clear, I would continue to visualize or even daydream about it. When shopping for the motor home, I would imagine what it would be like to have one, drive one and see the United States in one. I would keep the brochures by the bed and look at them just before I went to sleep and then sometimes dream about it.

Now that the desire is clear, it is necessary to get some belief or faith that you can actually have that desire. Therefore working on the mind becomes important as we often have negative thoughts and "voices" that would tell us we can't have. This is simply a limited belief that can keep us from our biggest dreams. A constant monitoring of thought becomes necessary to keep in correct alignment with our desire.

During this creative process, letting God know what your desire is comes first, but then we must ask what is needed to assist in the fruition of the desire. So listening to God/Spirit is just as important to talking to God. I have found the journal to be my most powerful tool. I will write down what is happening in life at that moment and then ask God for the wisdom about that subject or issue. I wait for the wisdom to come and then write it down also. I have received clarification on so many issues through this process.

Realizing that most of what keeps us from our dreams and desires are our limited beliefs, I began praying and speaking with God throughout the day to keep the lines of communication open at all times. This ensured me that the greatest wisdom is available to me at all times.

Some of the simple prayers include
(all are assumed to be addressed to God)

Show me what I need to see.
Show me how to create this dream.
Show me how great this experience can be.
What do I need to have this dream fulfilled?
What do I need to know at this time?
How great can this experience be?
How much love and joy can I have today?
How many great experiences can be enjoyed today?
How peaceful can my mind be today?

Notice the word choices. Show me allows the doors to open to what is needed for the creation. The word how is also a door opening choice of words. Questions can also open the doors to all the possibilities that we do not know. People will often hear me say, "I know nothing." This allows God to show me more. There is one important concept to get really clear on when working with God. We, as humans are limited and do not know everything. Knowing that simple truth and humbling ourselves allows God to give us what we need and quite often much more than we even desired. Even the most educated and trained professionals can realize that there is so much more than what they believe they know. If we stay focused on only what is in our rational minds there allows little room for the greatest miracles and possibilities to be shown to us, therefore our wording must assist us to open the mind and gateway to all of what God may have in store for us.

Keep monitoring the mind and living in "All God's possibilities."
