Prayer to the Angel of Rebirth



I came across this Lovely Prayer while clearing my desk today (trying to anyway), immediately I thought of my Friend and then I thought of sharing it with everyone...It is from The book
"The Angelic Year
Healing Through Angelic Meditation" by Ambika Wauters...


It is Addressed to the Angel of Rebirth on the subject of Spiritual Growth.

Growth is something we all experience, especially after learning a great lesson... It is through this Spiritual Growth that we look forward to rebirth as we trust that we will grow in the company of Goodness...

As each new stage of life or Re-Birth is approached we grow ever stronger, nourishing others with our Goodness; like the fallen apple feeds its Master, the Tree...

One day we open our eyes and see a Pure, Heavenly Light, and with it comes the Strength and innocence that one can only get when surrounded by the purest of Love...

Eden's Spirit...




Prayer
O, Angel of Rebirth, Awaken us to
the awareness that life is eternally
reborn and that our soul's expression
is itself the elixir of Life...

We Celebrate and accept our 'Selves'
at each stage of life...

Show us what is permanent, and what
remains unchanged...

Let us be aware of the living spirit within,
and that we emerge Re-Born in each
cycle of Life...

Amen...

Morning has broken

St Francis Prayer for Peace


The prayer of St. Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred…let me sow love...
Where there is injury…pardon...
Where there is doubt…faith...
Where there is despair…hope...
Where there is darkness…light...
Where there is sadness…joy

O Divine Master Grant that
I may not so much seek

To be consoled…as to console
To be understood…as to understand
To be loved…as to love
For it is in giving…that we receive
It is in pardoning, that we are pardoned
It is in dying…that we are born to
eternal life....

AMEN

The Creation of the Firefighter


The Creation of the Firefighter was written as a memorial to the 9/11 victims...It is a very touching story, please read on...Eden


When the Lord was creating Firefighters, he was into his sixth day of overtime when an angel appeared and said, "Your doing a lot of fiddling around on this one."


And the Lord said "Have you read the specification on this person? Firefighters have to be able to go for hours fighting fires or tending to a person that the usual every day person would never touch, while putting in the back of their mind the circumstances. They have to be able to move at a second's notice and not think twice of what they are about to do, no matter what danger. They have to be in top physical condition at all times, running on half-eaten meals, and they must have six pairs of hands."


The angel shook her head slowly and said, "Six pairs of hands...no way."


"It's not the hands that are causing me problems, " said the Lord, "it's the three pairs of eyes a Firefighter has to have."


That's on the standard model? " asked the angel.


The Lord nodded. " One pair that sees through the fire and where they and their fellow Firefighters should fight the fire next. Another pair here in the side of the head to see their fellow Firefighters and keep them safe. And another pair of eyes in the front so that they can look for the victims caught in the fire that need their help."


"Lord" said the angel, touching his sleeve, " Rest and work on this tomorrow."


"I can't, said the Lord, "I already have a model that can carry a 250 pound man down a flight of stairs and to safety from a burning building, and can feed a family of five on a civil service paycheck."


The angel circled the model of the Firefighter very slowly, "Can it think?"


"You bet," said the Lord. It can tell you the elements of a hundred fires; and can recite procedures in their sleep that are needed to care for a person until they reach the hospital. And all the while they have to keep their wits about themselves. This Firefighter also has phenomenal personal control. They can deal with a scene full of pain and hurt, coaxing a child's mother into letting go of the child so that they can care for the child in need. And still they rarely get the recognition for a job well done from anybody, other than from fellow Firefighters."


Finally, the angel bent over and ran her finger across the cheek of the Firefighter. "There's a leak", she pronounced. "Lord, it's a tear."


"What's the tear for?" asked the angel.


"It's a tear from bottled-up emotions for fallen comrades. A tear for commitment to that funny piece of cloth called the American Flag. It's a tear for all the pain and suffering they have encountered. And it's a tear for their commitment to caring for and saving lives of their fellow man!"


"What a wonderful feature Lord, you're a genius" said the angel.


The Lord looked somber and said "I didn't put it there."

Political Assylum


I found this Piece of poetry today, it brings home
the harsh reality of Human sacrifice...
I do not know why this happens, maybe
it is because of total disregard for life...

I want to thank the person who wrote
such a moving piece,but cannot because
I know not their name, so I shall
thank the Lord for opening my
Heart and eyes to such words...

Please let their be Peace...

Political Assylum

North Korean refugees are survivors,

Otherwise known as political defectors, in North Korea.

Reports of 300,000 refugees escaped to China.

There they are killed, sold into slavery, or returned to the

Home land and detained in “re-education camps” to be executed.

Korea divided into North and South

On July 27, 1953 and the North became the Democratic People’s

Republic of Korea with Kim IL Sung as their beloved leader.

Everyone in the South won their freedom and the liberties shared by

All in the United States of America.

Now Kim Jung IL is the president of North Korea.

Revolutionaries are persecuted under Kim Jung IL’s fascist regime;

Even people seeking political asylum.

Freedom and hope for a kinder leader and a better way of life

Under these cruel and unjust circumstances seem impossible.

Given all that we know about China and North Korea, it has been

Estimated that 7-million North Koreans have died in political camps, were

Exiled, or starved to death from famine and disease.

Since the Holocaust, there hasn’t been a more horrific account of genocide.

Never again should such a travesty be part of our history.

Each representative of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees need to

Express the urgency for World Action and take back the powers that leave its people

Defenseless, uneducated and abused.

United we stand on Human Rights. This

Solidarity for World Peace rings tonight.

Who will be brave enough to grant their wish?

Buddists Prayer for Peace

May all beings everywhere plagued
With suffering of body and mind
Quickly be freed from their illnesses.
May those frightened cease to be afraid,
And May those bound be free.
May the powerless find power,
And may people think of befriending
one another.
May those who find themselves in trackless,
Fearful wildernesses-
The children, the aged, the unprotected-
Be guarded by beneficent celestials,
And may they swiftly attain Buddhahood.

Native American Prayer for Peace


Oh Great Spirit of our Ancestors, I raise my pipe to you. To your messengers the four winds, and to Mother Earth who provides for your children. Give us the wisdom to teach our children to love, to respect, and to be kind to each other so that they may grow with peace of mind Let us learn to share all good things that you provide for us on this Earth.

A Prayer for our Children of the Earth



God our Father, You see Your children growing up in an unsteady and confusing world.

Show them that Your ways give more life than the ways of the world, and that following You is better than chasing after selfish goals.

Help them to take failure, not as a measure of their worth, but as a chance for a new start.

Give them strength to hold their faith in you, and to keep alive their joy in your creation.

Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen

Count your blessings

Count your blessings instead of your crosses;

Count your gains instead of your losses.

Count your joys instead of your woes;

Count your friends instead of your foes.

Count your smiles instead of your tears;

Count your courage instead of your fears.

Count your full years instead of your lean;

Count your kind deeds instead of your mean.

Count your health instead of your wealth;

Love your neighbor as much as yourself.

Native American Prayer For Humility

The prayer you are about to read makes me realise that there are too many generations of our people who have forgotten where we truly come from...

Listen to the ones who are not followers of fashion but of Mother Nature, The Universal Father and the Spirits of life...

The Natives are truly connected to Spirit for they own Humility, something that is so rare to find in our Modern society...

Listen to Mother Nature and Follow Your Heart...Not Fashion...It's what the Natives do, they understand and listen where we tend to be too busy to listen to ourselves let alone anyone else...

It's time to slow down and listen to the voices of Goodness... We do not need fictitious, pretentious happiness, which is what most Moderners have...Every one seems to be want want wanting, but they are wanting the wrong thing...

Want for Happiness, Peace and Loving Relationships...Do something now about your Wanting before it is too late...Listen to the Natives they are Wise, Connected and Peaceful Loving People...Eden's Spirit



PRAYER FOR THE WHITE MAN

And now, Grandfather, I ask you to bless

the White Man.

He needs your Wisdom, your guidance.

You see, for so long,

he has tried to destroy my people,

and only feels comfortable

when given power.

Bless them, show them the peace we understand,

teach them humility.

For I fear they will someday destroy themselves

and their children,

As they have done so Mother Earth.

I plead, I cry.

After all, They are my Brothers.......

Native American Indian Prayer for sStrength



Great Spirit Prayer

Oh, Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the wind,

Whose breath gives life to all the world.

Hear me; I need your strength and wisdom.

Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.

Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice

Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people.

Help me to remain calm and strong in the face of all that comes towards me.

Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock.

Help me seek pure thoughts and act with the intention of helping others.

Help me find compassion without empathy overwhelming me.

I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy

Myself.

Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes.

So when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame.

Footprints

One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking
along the beach with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene, he noticed two sets
of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life
there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest
and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him
and he questioned the Lord about it.
Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when I needed you
most you would leave me.

The Lord replied,
My precious, precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you.

A Prayer for those who Hate


The Music of Karl Anthony



A TRUE EARTH ANGEL WHOSE SONG A PRAYER FOR PEOPLE WHO HATE IS ONE NOT TO BE MISSED...

This Prayer is sung by Karl and Jeanne Anthony, Jeanne is singing in ASL.

ONE PRAYER


by Karl Anthony

If I had one prayer, I'd pray for people who hate
Maybe I'm out of my mind ...or deep in my faith
A man grows old ...when his souls in pain
Only love can loosen that chain

But if I offer you grace, will it cause any change
And do I appear weak, if I calm my rage
I think of revenge, but will I become
The thing I despise, when a heart goes numb

I'll say a prayer, hoping it finds ...people who hate
I send it now, to heal the hearts ...of people who hate

If only one song ...could silence hate
And end all the war ...before its too late
If a cold mind ...could begin to feel

Then the fear in our world ...has a chance to heal

I'll say a prayer, knowing it finds ...people who hate
I send it now, to heal the hearts ...of people who hate
......pray for people who hate


All of our thoughts ...can set the stage
For the power of love ...is larger than rage
When we take revenge ...we will become
The hate we despise ...as our soul goes numb

I have One Prayer ...for the world to hear
It's a cry for mercy ...the last of our tears
Let hate dissolve ... let the past reveal
That love has shown us what is real

Angels above, quiet the pain ...in people who hate
I'm sending One Prayer, to heal the hearts ...in people who hate

One prayer.....Pray!

(May all be loved, may all be blessed, may all feel peace....pray for people who hate)

I'm sending love to people who hate

I must be out of my mind ...or deep in my faith
