Let There Be

“The creation story is built on a prayerful phrase: ‘Let there be…’  Not: ‘There will be,’ or ‘Dear God, make it be.’ There was no suggestion of effort, strain, or anxiety. Just, letting. The Kingdom that is within us is a finished kingdom, and that for which we pray is done even before we ask.”
​– Eric Butterworth, The Creative Life
Affirmative prayer: Today, in faith and confidence, I know that my prayers are answered before I speak the words. This holy decree manifests as guidance, healing, resolution, and abundance. It’s love. It’s love made visible in my life and in the lives of those for whom I pray. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
