Prayer

God is forever calling us to awaken to oneness; our oneness with him/her.  This calling is inherent in all of us. It is the call to come up higher, to take charge of our lives, to release our imprisoned  splendor. 

In the scripture Job 22: 26 - 28 it says "submit to God and be at peace with him; And prosperity will come to us.  That we should pray to God and we will be heard.  All our vows will be met."  The key word to that scripture is "Pray."  Eric Butterworth says that prayer "is the secret door to cosmic power." 

The practice of prayer allows us to become aware of our true self - that we are God's heirs.  We do not inherit things from God, but Divine Ideas such as life, substance, intelligence, love, power, unlimited abundance and well-being.

Many of us have been brought up thinking prayer is something that we do to God, or a ceremony we perform for God. Emilie Cady says in Lessons in Truth  that "True prayer is grateful acknowledgement of the truth that God and man (or women) are one because they are of the same nature.  True prayer is the continual recognition and thanksgiving that all is good, that all good is ours now as much as it ever can be.  True prayer can never be begging God for something we do not have.  Rather it is thanking Him for bringing into manifestation that which is already ours in the ideal."


So Pray. Pray Daily.  Take the time to become established in the awareness of Oneness, our oneness with God.  The benefits are great: the unfolding of creative ideas, the ability to rise above human challenges, and the improvement of your disposition and health.

Pray and connect with the treasure within us all - Our Divine Inheritance.

Peace be with you.
