Prayer/Affirmation for Happiness!

I wanted to take a moment to share with all of you a prayer that I have used to help me remember who I am and what I am focusing on. I found this in a book called "The Power of Your Subconsious Mind" by Joseph Murphy, PHD. I love this prayer/affirmation and I hope you enjoy as much as I do!

"Divine Order takes charge of my life today and everyday. All things work together for good for me today. This is a new and wonderful day for me. There will never be another day like this one. I am divinely guided all day long, and whatever I do will prosper. Divine love surrounds me, enfolds me, and enwraps me, and I go forth in peace. Whenever my attention wanders away from that which is good and constructive, I will immediately bring it back to the contemplation of that which is lovely and of good report. I am a spiritual and mental magnet attracting to myself all things that bless and prosper me. I am going to be a wonderful success in all of my undertakings today. I am definitely going to be happy all day long. "Prayer by : Joseph Murphy PHD

Anything is possible if you only believe!!

I am overwhelmed this morning with the desire to share my experiences with the book called The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. My only intention is to share my faith and experiences so that you all may at least consider the possibility.

I first watched The Secret in June of 2006. I tried watching at my house on my computer but was having no luck. I quickly called a friend and went over to her house where we watched together.

After watching The Secret only once I came home and made a of what I wanted, took a $1.00 bill and added 6 zeros to the end and made it 1 million dollars, and cut out a picture of a new car. Over the next few days I focused on these things but did no actual work on myself and went back to my old routine - I like to call it going back to sleep.

Around the first part of February 2007 I was spending the afternoon with my daughter in law who had recorded the Oprah show the prior week. We watched the first show Oprah had on regarding The Secret. Suddenly, I was reawakened, revitalized and motivated. I asked my daughter-in-law to buy the book online and send it to my son. I went to the bookstore the next day and bought the audio book on CD.
(Without distracting from the story I would like to point out that just like any other book, if a movie is made it only has highlights of the material covered in the book....In my opinion, true understanding of the secret is only possible when reading the entire text and taking all of it into consideration).

The following week, my boss let me off work early one day unexpectedly. I got home at exactly 4:00 pm and decided to turn on the TV, and I wondered what is on Oprah. The Secret revisited! The second show that Oprah had concerning the Secret.

Over the next couple of weeks, I focused my attention on my thoughts, my beliefs, and myself. I became aware of the things that I was giving attention to and that were dominating my thoughts. I began to change the pictures of my life with love, faith, and gratitude. I manifest on a regular basis, and there are so many examples that I could list....However, I have chosen the one that is the most dramatic for me.

On Tuesday Feb. 19, 2007 I was sitting in my car at work over lunch hour listening to the audio CD of The Secret, I was declaring my perfect health. I believed that I received it and was giving gratitude for it. I looked over at my hand and there was a half smoked cigarette still burning between my first two fingers. I paused and stared at it for a moment focusing my attention on it and completely aware. I realized at that moment that my actions were not mirroring my desires of perfect health. I was saying one thing and doing quite another.

I proclaimed to the Universe at that moment " I AM A NON SMOKER". I believed it was true and done that instant! I gave thanks for it - I was totally exhilarated. I believe that I was completely aligned with the Universe and God and at that moment asked for what I wanted, believed I received it, and gave thanks. After 25+ years of smoking I was a non-smoker at that moment and for the rest of my existence.

However, the story continues......A few days later I was decluttering my house making room for the new pictures of my life and I came across the list of wants that I had made during June of 2006......on the list was QUIT SMOKING. I asked, I believed, and I received and I am forever grateful for this entire experience because it has forever changed my life.

I did not know how it would be done. I just knew it to be true. Again, I asked believe, and receive. With no patches, gum, anything ----- It has not been difficult, I believe this is because I am following my flow....I am one with God and all. I am grateful!!!

Jesus told us over and over again....Believe.....Ask and if you believe you shall receive. He did not give us instructions saying you can only ask for this or that......He just said ask and you receive if you believe. All it takes is faith.
It is not just magical thought. It is thought that is full of love, faith and gratitude. In addition, action is required! You have to ask, you have to give thanks and you have to receive it.

I am sharing this will all of you with the sincere desire that this information will make a difference...to share with you the glory of life for it is spectacular! To share with you the joy of being connected to the Universe. He is a part of everything.....which means that he is a part of all of us. None of us are ever disconnected from the divine.

Bless you all,
I love you

Thoughts are Tangible !!!

Before going any further with this blog I think it is necessary to relate to all of you the fact that science has proven lately that thoughts not only affect your body but they affect the outside world as well! There are several sources that you can chose from that all say about the same thing – our thoughts are tangible things that affect us. If we believe that we are poor then we are poor, if we believe that we are rich then we are rich, it is really that simple! Belief is the key to everything! Here is what the book of Mark has to say on the subject:

Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea: and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass: he shall have whatsoever he saith. Mark 11:23

The bible is telling us that anything is possible as long as we think correctly and believe it to be so! This concept can be very difficult to grasp especially if one is subject to doubt based on religious undertones of any kind! Having said that, there is scientific evidence that shows that thoughts are tangible and do affect not only our body but our outer world as well.

Lets start with information found in a book by Eldon Taylor called Choices and Illusions. The author concludes in one section that our “nonlocal mind is interacting in a holographic universe via principles of mind, including thought and belief, and thereby co-creating what most call reality.” He goes on to quote Lynn McTaggart from her book The Intention Experiment as saying “thought is a tangible thing with the power to affect the physical world!” These experiments like many others are showing that as people meditate, pray, and/or focus intention they are able to influence the physical world. For more information on this you can visit the website http://www.intentionexperiment.com/ .

There have been many scientific experiments that have proven that prayer can affect the physical world, all one has to do is Google this and there are many articles to read. On Oprah’s Soul Series for the week the guest was Dr.Larry Dossey the author of Healing Words. In the interview, this medical doctor shares how he became interested in the subject and describes scientific experiments that have proven that prayer works! You can view the entire interview for free at http://www.oprah.com/article/spirit/inspiration/pkgoprahssoulserieswebcast/20080721_oaf_oss_ldossey.

What is prayer? Is it more than a thought? This answer may be different for everyone but to me prayer is just focused thought! I believe that by now everyone has heard of the water experiments but if not here is one that you should read about – simply put thoughts change water! Look for yourself - http://www.whatthebleep.com/crystals/

The time is now to take the time to pay attention to your thoughts! As a general rule we are the hardest on ourselves! Take the time to change your thinking and be kind to yourself and others. See for yourself if this works. Take one thought and replace it for a week with a positive one. See if there is a difference! I said the following affirmation daily (most days more than once) and saw change in a short period of time:

Divine Order takes charge of my life today and everyday. All things work together for good for me today. This is a new and wonderful day for me. There will never be another day like this one. I am divinely guided all day long, and whatever I do will prosper. Divine love surrounds me, enfolds me, and enwraps me, and I go forth in peace.

Whenever my attention wanders away from that which is good and constructive, I will immediately bring it back to the contemplation of that which is lovely and of good report. I am a spiritual and mental magnet attracting to myself all things that bless and prosper me. I am going to be a wonderful success in all of my undertakings today. I am definitely going to be happy all day long.

Wishing you happiness and peace – I love you!
