A Friday Prayer

Unity Principle 5. Knowing and understanding the laws of life (Truth) is not enough;
I must live them.

I spend precious time every morning praying, reading, writing about the spiritual truth that has meaning–is meaning–to me. I love this time. I awaken every day eager for this time. Throughout the rest of each day, I reflect on and am glad for this time.

That is not enough.

God of Truth, I respect your allowing me greater awareness, deeper understanding of what it’s all about.

I thank you for that. As a human being with a mind of my own (quite a gift, thank you!), I seek to understand. I look for reasons. I think I need the cause-and-effect answers.

At the same time, I come to know thinking is not all there is. Maybe another application of that 20:80 law fits here. 20% thinking about it and 80% living the Truth.

Thank you, God, for the reminders to live, not just to think.

To see the Living Spirit in the homeless woman on the corner.

To shed my anger and don my love for the next-lane driver.

To honor our Oneness in each raindrop.

To concentrate the energy of peace and literally send it around the world (surround the world).

To smile at everyone, showing my knowing that love is all. And all is love.

Bless you, God. Thank you, God. I love you, God.

Amen.
