A healthy dose of “questioning” is a great tool for developing an understanding of what we believe & know. When we think we know it all or are not willing to question what we believe, or are not willing to ask what it means when someone feels their prayers have not been answered, we are no longer in alignment with being “Open at the Top.” Let’s engage the process of inquiry on as many levels as possible and see how far through the rabbit hole we can venture!
There is no room for doubt in a prayer treatment. Realize that you treat with your understanding, through the Law. Meditate upon the spiritual significance of the statements you make, until you induce within consciousness a definite concept of an already established fact, even though the fact may not have become objectified. (SOM, P.586)
Faith is built up from belief, acceptance, and trust. Whenever skepticism enters our thoughts it destroys faith. Since every thought is a prayer, we have to carefully monitor our thoughts so that our faith is not compromised. We must continually feed our faith with supporting input. As Will Rogers once said, “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
