Active Prayers vs Passive Prayers

They’re always there you know, our spirit guides and angels. Even though you do not see them, they’re there. Your guides and angels are all around you and usually giving you hints to let you know they’re there.

Maybe by dropping feathers down from the sky or directing your attention to repeating numbers or nudging you left or right. They’re probably intercepting meetings that would be harmful to your health and causing fights with people who do add anything to your life. They are there protecting you. Just because you cannot see them with your physical eyes, doesn’t mean they do not exist.

Just like the intangible feeling of love, our angels and spirit guides are waiting in the wings. Waiting to be noticed, acknowledged and called upon. How our subconscious mind needs directing, so do our spirit guides and angels. How do you direct them?

One way is to actively pray because there are many people who passively pray for help and wait without doing much.

It’s like someone who prays to win the lottery without ever buying a lottery ticket.

They wait for something good to happen to them without putting forth effort into their own causes to receive the benefits of all the good effects. The world needs more doers, more active prayers. If we all stood around and waited without putting forth any action, well, we’d be at a huge standstill, wouldn’t we?

People who actively pray put forth effort into their causes. They know that in addition to their acts of service, they have their Higher Source and all of their spirit guides and angels to assist in their path. They have not put all of their hope into one person, place or deity, but they have hope inside of them that carries them forward with the belief that their God will assist.

Which category do you fall in?

Maybe you do not believe in a Higher Source, maybe you believe in other civilizations outside our Earth (me too, buddy, me too), but no…
