Inspirational and Spiritual Prayer Guide If you liked Help, Thanks, Wow by Anne Lamott or Anxious for Nothing by Max Lucado, you’ll love Your Life is Your Prayer . Prayer can point your life in the right direction―or the wrong one: Whatever you’ve got going on in your life is what you’ve been praying for―sometimes consciously, but often unconsciously. If you want something different in your life, you must pray a different prayer. Your Life is Your Prayer by BJ Gallagher and Sam Beasley will show you how to do just that. Everything you do is prayer: You may not realize it―many people don’t―but the decisions you make throughout the day, the attitudes you adopt, the conversations you have, the way you respond to other people, and the thoughts you think are all prayers. The food you choose to eat is a prayer, the way you spend your money is a prayer―even the way you drive is a prayer! We are constantly communing with the Divine, even in our most mundane activities. And our prayers are always answered in the affirmative: “Yes.” The Universe will give you what you're praying for: Whatever you’re thinking about (and therefore praying about) will manifest in your life. If you are worrying, "I don’t have enough money," the Universe will say ‘Yes, you don’t have enough money.’ If you’re constantly lamenting, "I don’t have a man in my life," the Universe will respond, ‘Yes, you don’t have a man.’ If you frequently complain, "I’m fat," the Universe will answer, ‘Yes, you’re fat.’ Your thoughts and words are prayers, and the Universe always gives you what you’re praying for. Your Life is Your Prayer will show you how to change your life by changing your prayer: Learn how to stop complaining - Discover how to focus on what you do want, not what you don’t want - Learn how to make your prayers positive and affirming―to get more of what you want in your life - Discover how, by constantly choosing new thoughts and new conversations, you will literally create a new life for yourself "Sam and BJ's book is a wise reminder that every day is sacred. Your Life Is Your Prayer is also a new take on mndfulness and the many opportunities we have in our lives to deepen our connection to spirit. Here is true sustenance for the soul." ―Becca Anderson, author of Prayers for Hard Times and The Woman's Book of Prayer "Every once in a long while a book about prayer is truly unique. Your Life is Your Prayer assumes that our individual minds in everyday living are all the time connected to a larger divine Mind, call it what you wish. This classical idea of Oneness is a part of perennial wisdom, even though it is harder for us to grasp in the modern age because we are taught that our minds are entirely explained by cells and tissue, and as a consequence the great mystery of the mind as somehow a small drop of a universal Mind is lost. But in fact so many deep thinkers from Plato to Maya Angelou would agree that our thoughts are continuous with 'Something' Higher, and that quite literally everything we think and everything we do―because what we do is a continuation of what we think―are prayers. So as it is said, be careful what you think, and be aware of the power of thoughts to create the path before you." ―Stephen G. Post, author of God and Love on Route 80 "This fabulous new book by Sam and BJ is a great resource to help you discover the connection between your faith and your finances. If your goal is freedom―freedom from want and freedom from fear – this book is for you! ―Chellie Campbell, author of The Wealthy Spirit and From Zero to Zillionaire "BJ and Sam's marvelous new book reminds us all how to live rich, wonderful, fulfilling lives―as prayers." ―from the Foreword by Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager " Your Life Is Your Prayer is a beautiful book that offers deep wisdom and guidance on how to empower your life with prayer for every occasion and situation.
