As we turn our attention away from the circumstances and the situations and the details of the world around us and open ourselves up to that infinite power,
That divine creative power that creates everything.
This is that divine source that has created galaxies,
Stars,
Solar systems,
Plants.
Everything on planet earth is a creation of this one and it created it by sharing its own substance and energy.
That's true wherever we look for the story,
When we talk about the big bang,
There was an infinitely dense singularity,
Impossibly dense matter and energy 14.
2 billion years ago and then suddenly it exploded,
It began expanding.
Everything that exists in the universe has been and continues to be created out of that.
When we're talking about the oneness,
We are talking about that one.
There is nothing but that one.
Scripture says the same thing,
In the beginning there was darkness and void and God.
All there was was God and God said,
Let there be to begin with light and that creative law responded and there is light and God said,
Let there be and continued on and every time God said,
Let there be,
The law responded and continues to respond and there is.
Everything,
Everyone,
Everywhere can be traced back to that one and because that creative law is always responding to the conscious intention and invitation for something new,
When there is a powerful clear intention for let there be,
The law responds by bringing it into being.
Sometimes it's in ways that we understand perfectly,
Sometimes it's in ways that are completely mysterious and still the law always says yes,
That creative power is always saying yes.
It's not a question of whether that power is going to respond to us,
It is more of a question of what it is that we are setting as an intention.
The good news is that the sum total of our beliefs is showing up as the life around us.
If there's something that is not to our pleasure,
It's somehow tied to what we believe.
We are free to change what we believe.
We are free at every moment to change what we believe,
To set a new intention,
To make a new invitation for that creative power to create something new in our lives and the answer is always yes.
When we are having an experience of life that we don't like,
It's not about blame,
It's about awareness and insight and understanding.
I now know something that is not working to my satisfaction and I choose something different.
Sometimes I choose exactly what it's going to be,
Sometimes I just choose what that feeling of dissatisfaction is going to transform into.
Is it peace and peace of mind and serenity?
Is it prosperity?
Is it love?
Is it happiness?
Is it joy?
Is it gleefulness?
Do I completely forget what that experience was or is my new experience informed by that?
The invitation for that new experience is unique to each of us.
As each one listening grows and evolves and expands along that practice of practical prayer,
That transformation is more deep and more profound than we had necessarily expected was possible.
As good as we can possibly believe and 10% better than that,
We are inviting a new awareness,
A new insight,
A new ability to transform our prayer practice into a deep and effective practice of practical prayer,
Allowing more good and more good and more good to flow in our lives.
To the greatest extent possible,
We are clear in those intentions that we are setting and the invitations that we are making.
In any circumstance or situation where we're seeking something that's outside of what we believe is possible,
The guidance is very clear that we do not believe it.
We are free to adjust our beliefs,
To go back and examine them.
Each one is going through that process in his and her own way to clear out the old baggage,
The leftover beliefs from earlier life,
From childhood,
From lessons learned throughout society,
From all of those unconscious thoughts that have been impressed upon that creative law for so long.
Repeatedly,
Going through that process of clearing out what's no longer working and opening to what's new and what's possible and inviting that yes.
This good is unfolding right here and right now and continuously for everyone within the sound of my voice.
The good that we're seeking is seeking us.
The awareness of what it is that we believe and don't believe is gifted to us.
With clarity and peaceful wisdom,
That good is unfolding.
I'm so grateful for the wonderful ways that this is coming about.
I'm grateful for the stories that each one of us is even now getting ready to tell about the transformation.
With gratitude for all of this good and more,
I speak this word of intention and I release it into the same creative law that has always said yes,
Knowing it is once again saying yes.
I let it be and so it is.
