Do you beleive that some of God's Greatest Gifts are un-answered prayers? If so, Why?
I do beleive in the saying. I prayed for a job in the World Trade Center that I didn't get. For a long time I couldn't understand why, I was qualified, I did well at the interview and I really liked everything about the position.
Thankfully, I didn't get the job.
Thankfully my prayer went un-answered. Or at least, not answered the way I wanted it to. What happened there shortly after, could have very easily been me.
I know many struggle with prayers un-answered, myself included, but before you pump your fists and shout at the sky, think that there may very well be a reason for delays or prayers that go seemingly 'un-answered'.
Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I am as grateful for the prayers un-answered as I am for the ones that have been granted me!'
Spend some time each day enjoying focused breathing AND soul guided meditative visualization, in doing so, you can bring about profound and powerful changes in your life.
Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different.
Remember, attitude really does determine altitude.

Un-answered prayer can be the best type of prayer there is. It really is an answered prayer - but sometimes in our limited understanding we feel like God bailed out on us by not allowing life to unfold excatly the way we wanted. So we are the ones who catorgerize it as "unanswered".
ReplyDeleteIf we can be silent long enough and pay attention, we would realize that so much of our prayers and requests are based in desperation, fear and possibly image. I thank God that I have recently gotten to a point in my own life that life is still good, I am still well taken care of and what I desire will come, even if it doesn't look excatly the way I thought! It's liberating to be able to have a vision of your life, but your happiness not being dependent on it happening excatly that way. (Sorry for the length - I am a yikkity yakker)

I also believe that prayers come in all shapes and sizes!Answered and not only when we look with our faith and not our eyes can we really know how we were answered.
ReplyDeleteTY for sharing the gift of your answer with us!!May all our prays be answered even if we don't see it!!
