The power and presence and amazing wonder of life is here right now in this present moment and each moment throughout eternity. The nature of this Presence is love and harmony. Its ways are creative and beautiful, showing itself through flowers and butterflies, rainbows, stars, and the moon, and everything in between.
Just as I am infused with this power and presence, so is the receiver of this prayer. Each one of us is a unique, one of a kind creation. And we are born into families, not necessarily of our choosing.
So I say a word of prayer for these families. And when the family is going through a challenging experience, I claim calm. I affirm that this eternal power and intelligence knows just what to do and is doing it to mend families in disharmony. Even if this looks quite different at the end of this transformation, this divine power and presence is always comforting, bringing light to the situation and shining the way. I declare that through dealing with these family challenges, members develop courage, compassion, and kindness. And this compassion and kindness starts with the self, taking extra good care during stressful times. Each new day presents opportunities and possibilities for resolution of family conflicts. Each new day we can begin again to reframe how our thoughts handle the situation as we weed out negative unhealthy thoughts, and replacing them with self-nurturing ways of thinking. Taking time to be in nature, rest, prayer, meditation, and just being in the stillness are helpful now. And connecting with helpers along the way, we are not alone in the process.
And so with a grateful heart, knowing that all the details are taken care of by the Law to enable families to continue to grow and evolve just the way they do, I declare a peaceful calm during this process regardless of what it looks like and I release this prayer, knowing it’s already done perfectly.
And so it is. Amen
