\"cosmic-man-world-child\"<\/a>The word prayer used to tick me off . For too many years it reminded me of the big fearful guy in the sky who stood ready to smite at the smallest transgression. It was only later I learned that was not what God was and that was not what prayer was. I didn’t use the words for many years because those words alienated me and I did not want to alienate anyone I was trying to convey processes and techniques to. Sometimes I think of prayer as asking for someone with greater knowledge and influence than I have to join with me in creating a new circumstance that I am fully aware of being able to create by faith in my own focus of thought but it helps me to imagine there is a co-Creator, an energetic Investor with far more resources than I, Who can guarantee the success. When I think of it that way it activates my internal guidance system and I get as much response as if I was sitting having coffee with you.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
