Matthew delivered the great news, "Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive" (Matthew 21:22). In other words, it's recommended that we enjoy the feeling of expectancy as we anticipate the answer to our prayer. Former United States Army Green Beret Sgt. Larry Broughton, CEO of Broughton Hotels, drops in to read and discuss today's Daily Word®, "Healing." Click here to download and listen.

Belief takes you where you want to go with the speed of jet propulsion. Doubt an disbelief take you just this far in the opposite direction. Belief always magnetizes; disbelief demagnetizes.
You know something of the efficacy of prayer. What is prayer but the expression of a heartfelt, earnest, sincere want or desire? The Great Master said: "What things so ever you desire, when you pray believe that you receive them, and you shall have them."

"The Kingdom of God is within you." When we become conscious of our Oneness with Universal Good, beliefs in evil, sin, sickness, limitation, and death tend to disappear. We shall no longer "ask amiss," supplicating as though God were not willing, begging as though He were withholding. –Ernest Holmes, Science of Mind, Pg. 150.
Daily communion with God demonstrates my humility and provides me with the realization that an entity more powerful than I is willing to help me if I quit trying to play God myself. –Daily Reflections, Alcoholics Anonymous, July 12.
Divine Love now dissolves and dissipates every wrong condition in my mind, body and affairs. Divine Love is the most powerful chemical in the universe, and dissolves everything which is not of itself! –The Game of Life, Florence Scovel Shinn
When we surrender our need to be in control, we are more open and welcoming of the good things that come our way. –Touchstones Daily Meditations For Men, Hazeldon, July 12.
I Am Supplied from the Substance of God
Every good gift...cometh down from the Father. -James 1:11
It is the nature of God to give, and it our nature to receive... God has not failed humanity... This is why Jesus told us we must believe that we really have received the gift before we see its evidence. This is an active faith, but it should be a faith built on the sure knowledge, a certain foundation, the positive conviction, that there is something that responds to us, gladly, readily, willingly, joyously, and without limit.
Today I am living in the quiet and joyous expectation of good... God is not only the Giver, He is the gift. This gift I receive in joy, with gratitude, and with a complete sense of security. I expect everything I do to prosper. I expect new and wonderful experiences to come to me. I am living in complete confidence that the Kingdom of Heaven is here and now and that I am prospered in everything I do. –Ernest Holmes, 365 Science of Mind

For thousands of years, healers have used the power of prayer to rejuvenate the mind, body, and spirit. Today, while we have many scientific remedies available, prayer remains a vital part of healing.
Every day, I affirm my truth: Perfect health is my divine inheritance. I may repeat this many times a day, as Unity co-founder Myrtle Fillmore taught us to do. As I meditate, I envision God’s presence as a warm light flowing in and through me, renewing and restoring every cell of my being.
Part of healing is forgiving myself and others for any thoughts, words, or actions that caused hurt. Prayer and meditation make forgiveness possible. Thank you, God, for the renewing, healing power of prayer.
Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive.—Matthew 21:22

From Karen Bressner,
I am writing today to recommend the poetry of Mary Oliver. I think that some of her writing might resonate with you. The work is easy to find online, in libraries, etc. Here are some examples:
the poem, 'Messenger' which begins with
"My work is loving the world . . . "
also, from the poem 'When I Am Among the Trees':
And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say,
“and you too have come
into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled
with light, and to shine.”
(book entitled Thirst)
Keep up the great work!!
Sincerely, Karen Bressner
