Gratitude - 4 23 09

Today I am thankful..

  • for signs
  • for two positive calls today
  • for enjoying a good interview today.
  • for new friends
  • for loving friends and family, and friends that are family
  • that we have a new landline
  • for rediscovering good old books
  • that the sneezing attacks I was having for a couple of weeks now seem to have subsided
  • for trusting that if I did't get an offer, I would have one very soon.
  • for the joy of watching Monsters Inc. and Finding Nemo all over again with my kids.
  • for the weather.
  • that I'm not sad anymore.
  • for discovering how my gratitude rock can make me feel good.
  • for the watcher of my thoughts and the power behind my breath
  • for prayers of gratitude and 'that before you ask, I have answered'
You will not have that for which you ask, nor can you have anything you want. This is because your very request is a statement of lack, and your saying you want a thing only works to produce that precise experience—wanting—in your reality.
.
The correct prayer is therefore never a prayer of supplication, but a prayer of gratitude.
.
When you ask God in advance for that which you choose to experience in your reality, you, in effect, acknowledge that it is there…in effect. Thankfulness is thus the most powerful statement to God; an affirmation that even before you ask, I have answered.
.
Therefore never supplicate. Appreciate. ~ Conversations with God
