The Inner Voice of Prayer

Universal Spirit: Help me focus beyond myself today. Sometimes, I am so busy with my “stuff” that I miss the love that is all around me. Today, I choose to pay close attention to each person I meet. I open my heart and listen carefully — beyond the words — for Your voice. Open my ears to the Truth. Open my heart to my sisters and brothers. Open my mind to Your indwelling presence. Open my life to Love. And so it is. Amen.

“Today Lord I am going to do my best with Your help and for Your glory. I realize that there are many different people in the world with a variety of opinions and expectations. I will concentrate on being a God-pleaser and not a self-pleaser or man-pleaser. The rest I leave in Your hands lord. Grant me favor with You and with men and continue transforming me into the image of Your dear Son. Thank You Lord.” ~ Joyce Meyer, Beauty for Ashes: Receiving Emotional Healing ~

“The inner voice is something which cannot be described in words. But sometimes we have a positive feeling that something in us prompts us to do a certain thing. The time when I learnt to recognize this voice was, I may say, the time when I started praying regularly.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi ~
