Prayer

The Law

Thou criest out that thou didst ask
And yet didst not receive,
And now thou sayest in thy heart
There is no law of good.
But hadst thou kept the law of good,
Or didst thou, asking, doubt?
Nay, nay, 'twas not the law that failed'
Twas thou who trustedst not.

Is law for Me alone to keep?
Nay, thou must do thy part.
Thou art to ask for naught but good
And asking, never doubt.
That is the law that thou must keep ---
Seek good, and e'er believe.
When thou hast kept this law of good,
Then ask; thou wilt receive.

Linda Buntyn Willie (circa 1915)

In prayer for a change in condition, physical, mental, or financial, for yourself or another, bear in mind that the fundamental necessity for the answer to prayer is the understanding of the scientific statement:

“Ask, believing you have already received,And you shall receive”

“Your Invisible Power” Genevieve Behrend , 1921
