I have been contemplating in my mind the possibilities that I have been praying to my gods all wrong over the years. I mean who exactly knows what a proper prayer is among us? I, being a recovering Christian, yet still have a strong belief in the power of prayer, am just so put back by the options at hand. “Am I doing it wrong” is the majority of the reflection my mind keeps rolling over and over? If I am doing this little prayer ritual in a wrong light, what might be the right light? Am I doing more harm than good?
This really hit the boiling point in my mentality when I was driving down the road yesterday. I came across a dead skunk in the middle of the road. I laughed a little as the cars in front of me swerved to miss the little remains and I thought to myself I would say a little prayer to send him on his way. The mind being mysterious as one might expect sayz dear lord please take this little fellow back to the earth and recycle him… Hmmmmm recycle? Why would I presume I knew what the hell I was doing? For all I know I just deemed this little sprit to the earth for eternity! I mean the little sucker took the leap and can now run around our earth instead of being rooted right to the little sucker like one of our large oaks that can never seem to roam freely. Why would I want to send him back to the earth?
I have strong feelings on this subject often. About seven or eight years back I stopped saying “god bless you” when someone sneezed, it has sense changed to just plain bless you. [If you don’t know why people say bless you when you sneeze, it is because your heart stops for a moment and you are dead]! Little things thou that have an ever lasting impression on our world are changed daily by the power of prayer. A few years back a friend told me there was a man who cured the criminally insane by the power of prayer. He didn’t even see them. He would look at their charts and pray for their forgiveness. His cure rate was impressive, one hundred percent, just by praying for their forgiveness. I looked into this and tried it myself. IT WORKS! I know a relentless narcissist individual that has alwayz been on the verge. I started praying for his forgiveness, he is now not only a totally functioning human being, but he loves humor. He loves to read and laugh at jokes that one day not so long ago he would not even attempt to comprehend. He went to study the a new found religion, and has completed courses that amaze me, he even has a conversation with me that has meaning. I first noticed the change a year or so ago when he said excuse me. In the twenty years I have known him he has never said excuse me! I almost hit the roof!
I am soooo impressed by the power of prayer that I pray for everyone’s forgiveness now! HA! But what if I am doing something wrong? Like praying for that poor little squirrel? I have often wondered about the power of prayer and its magnificent powers coming directly from thought. Can this power be misused and is it being misused? Can the prayers some are adhering to putting our little planet in jeopardy? Is this why we are in such turmoil at this moment in time? The power of prayer is almighty for sure; I have no reservations on this. But what is a proper prayer to save or enlighten our little planet and the souls entailed and are embedded in our thoughts?
Can anyone tell me their most sacred prayer they say for our planet and the people that lie within? Does anyone besides me pray for our galaxy and our universe and beyond? Or am I the only crazy here? Does anyone here ever pray for god? I used to pray for god every eve, now I am not sure which god to pray for so I leave this space open… Morning mesmerisms by Mykil to you!
