The creative force is invincible. It can easily cut through any Gordian knot. What is infuriating and baffling to the mind, it considers child's play.They are many levels this creative force works on. It can be an insight that arises from the depths of consciousness in the middle of the night. It can be a law of attraction practice such as visualization, affirmation, or creating a vision board that results in serendipidity or synchronicity. It can be a heart-felt prayer.Ultimately, this creative force is consciousness itself, also known as super consciousness, quantum consciousness, the Self, the Atman, or God.When we call upon this creative force, we realize the presence of an unsullied and pure consciousness within us that is omnipotent. It has not been affected in the least by all the peregrinations of your life. It is undismayed by the cons...]]></content:encoded>

I don't remember all of the details, but forsome reason, my dad and new stepmother used to drop me off atClyde's house to spend the night. While staying at his house, he frequently took me to carnivalsand parks. He also took me shopping for toys, and ice cream. Thedays I spent at &quot;Uncle Clyde's&quot; house were fun. The nights werecompletely different. This is when the demons emerged, and hishouse turned in to a living hell, leaving me paralyzed with fear.Clyde would wait until his wife Ann would go to sleep. Hewould then come into my bedroom, lead me into a front room, andmake me perform sexual acts on him. I'll refrain from givingfull details. When this started, I was about three years old;the frequency of nights spent there, was at least twice a month....]]></content:encoded>

We tend to use our carnal mind, eyes and earsthat are distorted during this dark time.Have you ever cried all night long?

This is a risky andadventurous state of mind. Belief in the religious sense, is theopposite of faith - because it is a fervent wishing or hope, acompulsive clinging to the idea that the universe is arrangedand governed in such and such a way.

So how can we figure out God's timetable?First, let's admit that we really are impatient. We have become a product of our modern conveniences. We microwave &quot;instant&quot; foods that are ready to eat in mere seconds.It irritates us if our two hour flight, that takes us hundreds of miles in less than two hours, is delayed by ten minutes. We expect our fully cooked &quot;fast food&quot; to be ready by the time we get to the pick up window.These and many more examples that you can probably think of, show clearly that we have lost a lot of patience. And so many times when it comes to asking God for something, if it doesn't happen very quickly we get frustrated.So, when you pray and petition God for something, how long are you supposed to wait? Is He going to answer? Could I please take a quick peek at His timetable on this one?Too often ...]]></content:encoded>

How do you pray and when do you pray - if you pray at all? I began writing this article because I noticed a book on my desk that I bought about three years ago.

	<content:encoded><![CDATA[ How do you pray? Some say that prayer is a personal thing. Others say that group prayer or public prayer is better than praying privately. Some say they do not pray at all. How do you pray and when do you pray - if you pray at all? I began writing this article because I noticed a book on my desk that I bought about three years ago. I read parts of the book and placed it away somewhere and just came across it today. The book is about emails and God. It reminded me of how I pray sometimes. &lt;a rel&quot;nofollow&quot;  href&quot;http:login.tracking.comswCD&quot; target&quot;self&quot;&gt;Get Prayers Sent To Your Cell Phone&lt;a&gt; Some might say that my method is strange, but my answer to that statement is that, &quot;It simply does not matter to me. It does not matter to me how strange I look when I pray. It does not matter to me if people think that I am talking to myself. What is important is that I pray. I pray to God and or with God because God is a vital part of my prayers. We, as humans are spiritual ...]]></content:encoded>

Saheeh Al Bukhari We may however find at times our health is decreasing, and rather than depend upon contemporary medicine alone, or at another extreme shun medication all together thinking our ill health to be the decree of Allah. As In all matters, we should turn to the authentic sources and seek assistance.

But He made something beautiful of my life.&quot;This hymn, which I hadn't heard or sung it for years, has been popping in my mind for over a week now. I could not remember all the words; yet couldn't stop humming it until suddenly they all fell into place. It was the Lord trying to get through to me with a simple song that always brought tears to my eyes whenever I used to sing it. He is so beautiful and so good. You see, I had been dealing with past regrets, my mind full of thoughts crying: 'if only I had'. Then Jesus came along with this song, gently reminding me that I had been forgiven and that He restores and heals the brokenhearted. Hindsight is , right? The consequences of a wrong decision will eventually impact on your own life as well as that of others. Thoughts come into your head all the time. Even the most peaceful, logical, uplifting, and loving fe...]]></content:encoded>

Sometimes we think things through, consider all the factors, and make a decision that we believe is the best one. But many times we find ourselves caught in the middle of what we want, what other people may want from us, and what God has planned.The problem that we often face is that we end up torn between what we want and what we think is &quot;right&quot;. And when we're torn between different desires, we end up creating doubt. And that doubt will kill our faith faster than anything else in this world. We might be able to stand up against criticism, we might even be able to handle disappointment and discouragement, but when our minds fill with questions and doubts, our faith is gone.James :- says, &quot;If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

Involving more than , heart bypass patients in six medical centers for almost ten years, the Times report called it &quot;the most scientifically rigorous investigation of whether prayer can heal illness.&quot; The result? Researchers found not only that an organized, specific prayer effort for the patients had no effect on their recovery, but also that patients who knew people were praying for them actually had a slightly higher rate of complications. Does this cast doubt on the effectiveness of prayer? Is prayer a waste of your time?Anyone who seeks a prayer life guided by Scripture should not take this study seriously. The fatal flaw in this research is the assumption that prayer can be successfully evaluated by white-coated people with n...]]></content:encoded>

This has no evidence to prove, but when we read back history, we get some idea about the same.The third EYE which I was mentioning previously gives good insight into all these mysteries. I will explain about the thrid eye for the benefit of my visitors:It is a proven fact that when a person closes his eyes the thoughts revolve around the head and after sometime it settles down in the forehead between two eyes.

This kind of error is one that puts limits on God. We end upthinking of Him as a reaction to us, as opposed to us being acreation of His. But it also limits us, because we close ourminds to the nature of God...and the nature of prayer. Prayer can stretch and bend as much as God allows it. It's not amethod of payment...even though our minds naturally tend tounderstand it as one. It's a simple line of communication. Oneopen to God. And the benefit of this line isn't at all like aline of credit. It's not there for us to receive a service orgood. It's there to strengthen our relationship with God. ...]]></content:encoded>
