Lieber Gott,
gib mir die Gelassenheit,
Dinge hinzunehmen, die ich nicht ändern kann,
den Mut,
Dinge zu ändern, die ich ändern kann,
und die Weisheit,
das eine von dem andern zu unterscheiden.
Reinhold Niebuhr
Dear God,
Grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage
to change the things I can,
and the wisdom
to know the difference.
Reinhold Niebuhr
PRAYERS TO THE ANGELS FOR HELP
Angels are always very happy to help you. You only have to ask them and they will spring into action, as long as it is in accordance with God’s Divine Will. There is a spiritual law, which says that angels are only allowed to help you if you ask them. Otherwise it interferes with your free will. So please ask the angels.They love it when you communicate with them.
BITTGEBETE AN DIE ENGEL
Engel sind immer sehr glücklich wenn sie um Hilfe gebeten werden. Ihr braucht sie nur zu fragen und sie kümmern sich sofort um eure Bitte. Die Bitte muss jedoch immer nach Gottes Willen sein. Ein spirituelles Gesetz besagt, dass Engel euch nur helfen dürfen, wenn ihr sie darum bittet. Ansonsten würden sie in deinem freien Willen eingreifen. So bitte fragt die Engel. Sie lieben es, wenn ihr mit ihnen redet.
A PRAYER FOR PROTECTION AND GUIDANCE
My dear Great Spirit,
I thank you for your Divine protection and guidance.
I thank you for your Divine protection and guidance.
I thank you for your Divine protection and guidance.
PRAYER FOR PROTECTION
The Light of God surrounds me
The Love of God enfolds me
The Power of God protects me
The Presence of God watches over me
Wherever I am
God is
And All is well.
(by James Dillet Freeman)
ARCHANGEL MICHAEL DECREE, GUARD, GUARD, GUARD US

By the lightning of thy love!
Guard, guard, guard us!
By thy Great Self above!
Guard, guard, guard us!
By thy secret power of light!
Guard, guard, guard us!
By thy great and glorious might!
And seal us safe forever
In thy diamond heart of light!
PRAYER TO ARCHANGEL MICHAEL
Archangel Michael - Protector Angel and the most appropriate of his angels and helpers.
I ask You now to surround me with a sphere of White Light
from the top of my head to the tips of my toes.
Fill that sphere of White Light with Protection, Love, Harmony and Healing.
Keep that sphere of White Light free from any negative energies.
Expand that sphere of White Light to the space that I am in, at all times.
May this White Light shine unconditional Love and Healing
to everyone around me.
May the most appropriate helpers from the Universe
Be with me in everything that I do today.
And all days to come.
Thank you.

AN OLD IRISH BLESSING
May soft be the grass you walk on,
May fair be the skies above you,

May dear be the hearts that love you.
A PUEBLO INDIAN PRAYER
Hold on to what is good,
Even if it is a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe,
Even if it is a tree that stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do,
Even if it is a long way from here.
Hold on to your life,
Even if it is easier to let go.
Hold on to my hand
Even if I’ve gone away from you.

I’m sorry
Please forgive me
I love you
Thank you
Please read the following Ho’oponopono books to find out more about this prayer:
Zero Limits by Joe Vitale
At Zero by Joe Vitale
Ho’oponopono by Ulrich E. Dupree, a Findhorn book.
MORRNAH’S PRAYER
You can listen to Joe Vitale saying this prayer at: www.guitarmonks.com/morrnahsprayer/
Jo Vitale tells us in his book "At Zero" that this is a cleansing prayer, given to us by Morrnah. He recommends us to say it out loud four times.
It is also good for cleansing antique and second-hand furniture, jewellery, etc.
THE PROPHET DANIEL’S PRAYER
Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever;
Wisdom and power are his.
He changes the times and the seasons;
He removes kings and sets up kings.
He gives wisdom to the wise
And knowledge to the discerning.
He reveals deep and secret things;
He knows what lies in the darkness,
And the light dwells with him.
I thank you and praise you, O God of my fathers:
You have given me wisdom and power,
You have made known to me what we asked of you,
You have made known to us the dream of the king.
The Bible, Daniel, 2,20.
PSALM 23 THE GOOD SHEPHERD A PSALM OF DAVID
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death; I will fear no evil:
for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff
they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies:
thou annointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
for ever.
THE WATER PRAYER
Look at your glass of water and before you drink it say:
Dear Spirit of the Water,
Please make me pure inside.
I drink you with gratitude and love.
If you are going to a doctor, dentist or hospital you may ask God and the angels to send good energy there, to bless the doctors, nurses, rooms, medical instruments, etc. and the patients.
If your boss or someone at work is cross with you, send them lots of love and good energy. You will be amazed what a difference it makes! The situation will change dramatically for the better! Do this every day until the situation improves.
Know that it is possible for everyone to communicate with their Higher Self (their Divine Soul), with their Spirit Guide and their Guardian Angel. Pray that you may manage it as soon as possible. Continue to meditate and pray to be guided to the right spiritual books.
