Law of Prayer

Law of Prayer ( or petition) -- Prayer is the catalyst that initiates a divine reaction. Prayer changes things. Matthew 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Seems this law ties in with the ask and receive concept. The experience I have had with prayer is a consistent one. When I pray in a sincere way, I find that the Universe is ever present and faithful to my voice. Sometimes it takes great strength to ask for things, especially things or characteristics you are scared of developing or attaining, and the wisdom of our Creator is always at work. I do believe in the law of attraction...you attract things into your realm merely by belief. This works for the good or the bad, depending on your thoughts and beliefs. However, I do believe when we are on our knees and do not know what to do or what to believe, Grace is present and ready to help us along this not so easy path. It starts when we are humbled enough or have walked into the wall one too many times...when we finally ask for help. We are always given what we need and the Universe wastes absolutely nothing. Everything works for good. Our part is to pay attention in our lives and live in a state of awareness...focusing on the moment and the cues of the Divine.
I believe our gratitude is music to Universal Mind. It sets in motion a calm, peaceful and content energy which only brings more gratitude. Sometimes we do not take the time to notice when things go our way. We can become used to living in a state of blessedness. That is why living in a world of duality is very helpful to our sense of perception.
May we all ask for what we need, notice when life moves for us, and bask in a perfect Universe that supports and nourishes us as needed. Then we will begin to notice that life always moves for us and we are grateful for all lessons...pleasurable and painful.
