The Value Of Prayer
Immer wenn du denkst es geht nicht mehr,
Kommt von irgendwo ein Lichtlein her.
Just when you think you’ve got no more fight,
Out of the darkness appears a light.
German Folk Wisdom
Translated by Aquarius
Prayer is one of the finest gifts God and the Angels have bestowed upon us earthlings. It costs nothing and brings many rewards. But as much of the time we don’t know what’s really good for us, for our own protection the answer to our prayer sometimes has to be: ‘no!’ The inner spiritual level of life is a world of thought where there is no separation between anything and secrets are unknown. It is as if we were shouting our innermost secret thoughts and the intentions behind them from the rooftops. They are clearly visible to anyone who is interested in them.
The Angels and Masters around the throne of God, the Christ Circle, are in charge of the development of our world on that on its many different levels. Our spirit guides and friends are their helpers and they are not allowed to interfere with our earthly lessons. It has been said that when our need is greatest, God is nearest. This is very true, but help will and cannot miraculously appear. It has to be asked for. That’s how it comes about that, during spells when nothing appears to be working for us and it looks as if the whole world were against us, eventually even the least religiously inclined humbly go down on their knees and pray: ‘If there is someone out there, can you please help me?’
That is the moment when our superconscious faculties slowly begin to open and the receiver/transmitter station of our earthly mind tunes itself into the frequencies of those in charge of us in the spirit world, humankind’s true home. This in itself is the start of our return journey into the conscious awareness that in truth we are – and always have been – one with our Creator, the Great Father/Mother of all life. And because God is as much part of us as we are of God, no thought, word or action ever goes unobserved or unanswered, see above.
Our spirit guides are just as much part of us on the inner level. Their task is to encourage us and coax us forwards and upwards on the evolutionary spiral of life, which in the end takes even the last and slowest ones onto the higher and ultimately the highest levels of life. If we ask our friends and helpers, they are willing to provide us with the courage and strength that is necessary for bringing forth the characteristics of our higher or Christ nature. Learning something from every one of our experiences increases our inner strength and that ensures that later on we cope better with further difficult situations that could still be in store for us until the last one of our karmic debts has been redeemed.
And because spiritual progress is the birthright of every one of us as well as the whole of humankind, it would not make any sense if our spirit friends did the work that is required for making it on our behalves. This is where praying comes into its own and together let’s pray: ‘O Great White Spirit, may Thy peace be present in every moment of our daytime thinking and protect our dreamstate at night. May Thy Spirit become increasingly manifest in every human being in ways that were never experienced on the earthly plane of life before, so that eventually for everybody each day can be all that we ever hoped for.
‘May humankind’s highest hopes, aspirations and dreams for ourselves and our world be fulfilled. With each passing day, may our faith and trust in the goodness of the life that has been given to us by God and the Angels. May our inner vision expand to help us bring forth the highest and best within us, so that the drives and urges of our lower animal nature can breathe their last on the cross of earthly life. Resting safely in the loving hands of God and the Angels, may peace, health and happiness then forever be with us and our world. Amen’
