Prayer

Prayer is not asking for something.  That's something else, but not prayer.  Prayer is appreciation.  Prayer is being appreciative.  Prayer is knowing that you already have "it," and being appreciative of this fact.

This is the secret of the magic.  This is the magic behind the secret.  This is the paradox.  You already have what you want.  You just need to choose to TUNE to it.  

Express your appreciation from the now, in the present tense, since it already is.  If you express your prayer in the future, it denies that it is here now and again, paradoxically, it cannot ever come.  Because there is no future.  There is only now.
