Our thoughts are prayers, and we are always praying
Our thoughts are prayers, take charge of what your saying

Seek a higher consciouness, a state of peacefulness
and know that every thought becomes a prayer


Yes you are sending info to the ethers every second of every day, and the universe is perfectly willing to conspire to make it so.

So when we get realy angry, or really jealous, or something pisses us off, G!d hears that focused prayer and obliges us by setting things in motion to validate....yikes.

How 'bout this mantra....for when we are dancing off the path??

What if what I were focusing on right now were to manifest in my life in front of my eyes?

Re: How do you pray?

Currently my focus is on the highest good for my kids, doing well in school, becoming adept at social situations, establishing a foundation of knowledge and common sense they can build on. They are doing quite well.

My daughter wanted to learn piano not to long ago, so I thought if I were to put a piano in the house I wanted it to be a nice one. So my focus was on receiving a free baby grand. Long story short, I ended up with two.

Re: How do you pray?

I am praying as if I am talking to God wholeheartedly, with open mind and heart.
