Well, gosh darn, why wasn’t my prayer answered? I could relate to my client’s frustration. It reminded me of my prayers as a child which usually took the form of Let’s Make a Deal.
Prayer is less about making deals and more about building a relationship with God. It is a practice of accepting God’s blessings and building faith. It is a practice of gratitude.
Prayer is always working. Our job is to let go of attachment to when or how it will happen. When we shift our attention away from telling God what to do and surrender, the universal flow of good comes rushing in to meet us.
Prayer for Accepting Good
I recognize at the center of all life is a power for good that is God and a universal presence of God’s love. Today I align myself with God’s love and know that it brings every good and perfect thing to me. I am guided and directed on my path and know whatever is needed is already provided. I surrender any limiting thoughts and trust that all is well. I gratefully receive all the good that God has to offer. Amen.
