pray every day

My prayers are Buddhist, so there isn’t really a God, but I still think they’re important.
I pray to remind myself to be grateful for each moment, but I don’t do it enough and I don’t think I take it seriously enough.

Last night I was reading from a small paperback scripture book. It was so comforting. This morning, I read and journaled and I am trying to memorize some of the short devotions so that I can say them during the day, at daybreak and when I need to comfort another person.
I prayed this morning that He continues to motivate my creative side, enrich my creativity. I thank Him everyday for bringing a wonderful husband to me. My husband is so loving, supportive and generous.I am so grateful.

I found a prayer site that I have been going to often. I read the entries and I cry sometimes of how painful some people’s lives are. I say a prayer for their healing, reversal of bad fortune, or terrible circumstances. I send my prayer of comfort to them anonymously. There is no need for them to know who I am. I just want them to know somebody is praying for them and I want them to be reassured that they are not alone. Somebody cares. This makes me feel so good. I haven’t told anybody that I do this.

I went for a walk yesterday, but the goal was to devote it to prayers, spiritual devotions. It was a very calming walk. I felt wonderful afterwards. It gives me so much peace. I read a small paperback book last night that had wonderful inspirational prayers for all occaisions before bedtime. So soothing to read these before bedtime and close the day with comfort. It anchors my soul.

I have had a confusing time with prayer. I was hopsitalized for 10 days and never prayed so hard to stay alive. In the hospital, I found a deeper faith in God than I ever had. I knew I was going to live, after a dream I had. Since then, I have a deep desire to become closer to God. But, I sometimes feel my prayers are too simple, too light, not worded right. So, I went looking for inspiration to use more spiritual words. I want to learn scriptures that I can turn to when I need to pray for others, or myself. While looking around the web, I found prayer sites where people post their deepest prayers and needs. And I found a wonderful site full of scriptures for every purpose, here is the site. It is very nice http://www.alighthouse.com/healing.htm I found myself praying for people with great devotion for their healing. I forward my prayers for their pain to be released, their circunstance to change for the better. I feel so much lighter inside. Happier.

I’m terrible at this. Sometimes on purpose.

I promise not disobey God and try to do my QT regularly! :(

I don’t think I can pray enough. There needs to be more of a connection with God in my life and the little things. Gratitude, praise, and asking for what I want.

Today i was so proud of myself, because i fasted for the first time….EVER!
I mean i did eat two oranges in the morning, because i do need SOME juices to get my body flowing, but other than that i didnt eat until the evening.
Im very proud of myself, and I intend on doing this often, like once a week, every saturday.
Wish me luck guys!!

there are days that i got very lazy, but setting that time daily helps you grow spiritually.

i need to start going to bed on time, so that i wont be so tired in the morning, and i would be able to set aside time for the Lord.
