In Depth Review – Praying For Prosperity
Michelle:
I have to pretty much say that all my goals were met, or are in the process of being met. definitely, the Reiki prayer has become something for me that was actually lacking in my life up to this point.I don’t think I would do anything differently because the experience was a good one. scary, at times, but good.
Shirley:
- I have added nothing to my savings account – so that’s a NO.
- I have managed to pay my bills this month but friends and family had to help me pay my expenses – so that’s a YES and a NO. I am not sure that it counts that I had to rely on the kindness of others in order to buy food, gas, etc. But then, maybe that counts..
- I will be getting one item on my wish list. My mom is getting me a printer for Christmas. I am also hesitant to list this as a goal that has been met because I would have gotten a Christmas present anyway.
- I did pick up some extra work which will help to pay for part of the unexpected expense of having to buy 4 new tires.
What did I learn? Hmmm… Well, I learned a number of possibly important things:
- In my heart, I do not believe my financial needs are important.
- Good friends are more important than money.
- Thirty days is a very long time to commit to doing something that doesn’t appear to bring results.
- Whenever I try to manifest money, I end up manifesting a whole bunch of new things to do instead.
- Don’t ask other people to pray for you if you aren’t going to pray for yourself.
- Prayer is the same for all faiths, only the wording changes.
- If your family doesn’t love and support you, and trouble comes your way, you’re probably screwed – unless you have good friends.
Basic changes within me? Well.. For a while there I was thinking that I was finally “getting” it when it comes to understanding “God” and talking “to” God, and what prayer is etc. But this afternoon, I feel just as clueless as I did when we started. So whatever it was I was “getting” is eluding me once again. Other than that, I guess I could say that I have a deeper appreciation for the people in my life who love me. Way deeper appreciation.
- My favorite prayer line is Science of Mind.
- My favorite prayer partner is that really nice man at The Upper Room Covenant Ministries who prayed with me on Halloween.
- My favorite letter of prayer support came this morning from one of the sites I surfed yesterday. If you guys are interested in where it came from, just ask, and I’ll look it up. At this moment I can’t remember the name of it.
- My favorite prayer.. well it’s not a prayer but I particularly liked the Yogananda quote from the Self Realization Society site.
If I had it to do over, the different thing I would do is: Pray for myself – in a very personal and heart felt way. Pray for specifics instead of general prosperity.
Books I recommend are: The Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda. The Art of Spiritual Healing by Joel Goldsmith. The Power of Myth by Bill Moyers and Joseph Campbell
Melissa:
- I am thrilled that I can start paying off my credit cards.
- I learned that being open to the universe and ready to receive while I continue to do the work that is in front of me really does work.
- The basic changes that occurred within myself were to trust the universe more and to trust myself more.
The only prayer line I used this month was Silent Unity. To do it differently, I would try some of the other prayer lines Shirley has tried and recommended. But I am really happy with my results.
My favorite prayer is the Prayer for Protection – I use it daily. The books I have “clicked” with are PROSPERITY by Charles Fillmore; SPIRITUAL ECONOMICS by Eric Butterworth; and CREATING MONEY by Sanaya Roman & Duane Packer.
Cindy:
It’s hard to believe the month is over. In some ways it seems like it’s been 6 months and in other ways it seems like it has just been a few weeks.I can’t say my goals have been met. I think right now I’m worse off financially than I was a month ago. That is very discouraging. And I have had so many things seem like “divine ideas” over the years that I have pursued and it seems like no matter what, they fail. And I can honestly say that not all of these failures were brought on by me!
And one of my goals was to get some things together and try to sell them but here it is the end of our month and I still have not gotten any of it done! It’s not that hard – I need to get a cello and guitar cleaned up and taken to a music store, some jewelry cleaned and taken to the jewelry store, and some other jewelry cleaned and sold at work. But it seems like the few evenings that I have free where I could do these things, I am too tired to do them!
The thing that stands out for me as far as what I have learned is that I sure didn’t know there were so many prayer lines out there available to people! I think that’s great!
My favorite prosperity prayer/meditation is to picture myself on a beautiful sandy beach, feel the wind blowing my hair and hear the crashing waves and the birds crying out, and see that and know that each grain of sand can represent 1 dollar bill, and realize that all the money I ever need is right there, with me, running through my toes, and there will never be an end, this money is available to me at all times and there is enough for everyone!
The only thing I could say I might do differently is take the time to call or e-mail more of the other prayer lines. It’s not that I didn’t want to, it just seems like there is never enough time in each day to get everything done that I want to do.
