Prayer is a way offered by the Holy Spirit to reach God.
It is not merely a question or an entreaty.
It cannot succeed until you realize that it asks for nothing.
How else could it serve its purpose?
It is impossible to pray for idols and hope to reach God.
True prayer must avoid the pitfall of asking to entreat.
Ask, rather, to receive what is already given; to accept what is already there

I must have decided wrongly, because I am not at peace.
I made the decision myself, but I can also decide otherwise.
I want to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace.
I do not feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I will let Him.
I choose to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for God for me.

The sign of Christmas is a star, a light in darkness.
See it not outside yourself, but shining in the Heaven within, and accept it as the sign the time of Christ has come.
He comes demanding nothing. No sacrifice of any kind, of anyone, is asked by Him.
In His Presence the whole idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to God.

Father, it is Your peace that I
would give, receiving it of You.
I am Your Son, forever just as
You created me, for the Great
Rays remain forever still and
undisturbed within me. I would
reach to them in silence and in
certainty, for nowhere else can
certainty be found. Peace be
to me, and peace to all the world.
In holiness were we created, and
in holiness do we remain. Your
Son is like to You in perfect
sinlessness. And with this
thought we gladly say
âAmen.â

The world will end in joy, because it is a place of sorrow. When joy has come, the purpose of the world has gone.
The world will end in peace, because it is a place of war. When peace has come, what is the purpose of the world?
The world will end in laughter, because it is a place of tears. Where there is laughter, who can longer weep?
And only complete forgiveness brings all this to bless the world.

You have reached the end of an ancient journey, not realizing yet that it is over.
You are still worn and tired, and the desertâs dust still seems to cloud your eyes and keep you sightless.
Yet He Whom you welcomed has come to you, and would welcome you.
He has waited long to give you this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you know Him.
Only a little wall of dust still stands between you and your brother. Blow on it lightly and with happy laughter, and it will fall away.
And walk into the garden love has prepared for both of you.

This holy instant would I give to You. Be You in charge. For I would follow You, certain that Your direction gives me peace.
And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me.
If I need a thought, that will He also give.
And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I will receive of Him.
He is in charge by my request. And He will hear and
work with Him to serve His
purpose. Then I lose myself in
my Identity, and recognize that
Christ is but my Self.
