When we don't know exactly what to pray for, we can always turn to the "Swiss Army Knife" of Practical Prayer, and invite the Highest and Best unfolding with Love and Ease, for us, the person asking for prayer, and all involved. This is from "Praying for Others" - Episode 156 of the Practical Prayer podcast. It was recorded live. A Practical Prayer follows the specific set of steps found in the most effective prayers from spiritual traditions and religions all over the world.

This is a prayer we can do regardless of whether we know what the person asking for prayer wants or not.

This is a prayer for highest and best unfolding with love and ease,

For the person requesting the prayer,

And all involved.

Whatever highest and best unfolding with love and ease means to everybody involved in this,

That's what the prayer is geared on creating.

And it will work all the way up to the edge of each person's belief system,

As good as they can believe it possibly gets,

And maybe even a little tiny bit better.

So it's working within the framework that we have,

And doesn't require that somebody else tell us what they want.

Or if Aunt Sadie is on her deathbed,

We can pray for Aunt Sadie experiencing her highest and best unfolding with love and ease,

And not have to define what that is.

Maybe that's Aunt Sadie slipping away quietly while nobody's in the room.

Maybe it's Aunt Sadie being there and have everyone be present while she makes her transition.

Maybe it's Aunt Sadie having a miraculous spontaneous recovery and living for another three years.

We don't know.

We don't know what's highest and best for Aunt Sadie,

And we're not going to claim that.

We are simply going to claim that whatever it is that's unfolding is highest and best unfolding with love and ease for everyone involved.

And the prayer is simple.

We turn our attention away from the stuff that's going on around us.

There's certainly lots of details in the world.

And open our awareness to that infinite creative power,

That divine presence,

That one love,

That limitless creative force that creates everything,

That infinite intelligence that knows all things,

That divine creative presence that has created everything that exists everywhere in this manifest universe by sharing itself as its creation.

Everything is that one taking form in its own particular way.

Everything is that divine presence unfolding in its own way.

That includes me.

That includes each one within the sound of my voice,

And that includes all of the circumstances and experiences for which we would desire prayer.

It is all that one power and presence,

And it's right here,

Right now.

And knowing that it is all one,

That that creative power that creates everything is always active,

And it's active now,

I now place this claim upon that creative law and know without any question that it is unfolding as the highest and best with love and ease for everyone involved,

For each one within the sound of my voice,

For each one who is the focus of their intention and their prayer,

Highest and best,

Unfolding in the most graceful and joyous and uplifting way possible,

Maybe even a little more so,

For everybody involved.

I know that it's showing up as health and vitality,

As comfort.

I know that it's showing up as peace of mind and an experience of harmony and balance and equilibrium.

I know that it's showing up as prosperity and an experience of enoughness.

It's revealing itself as love and connection of ourselves,

Those around us,

And everybody we're engaged with.

I know that it's the opportunity to be creative and share our experience and our talents and our gifts with the world in a way that brings uplift to our lives and to others.

These are all the things that are coming together in different ways for each of us,

But the same process unfolding for all of us,

Highest and best,

Unfolding with love and ease for each of us and for all of us.

And I'm grateful for it.

I'm grateful for the way that this goodness is coming about.

I'm grateful for the stories that we get to tell,

And I'm grateful for the awareness of this infinite creative power.

And so with a feeling of thanks for all of this good,

I speak this word and release it into that same creative law that creates everything.

And I know it is now creating an experience of highest and best,

Unfolding with love and ease for everyone listening.

And so I let it be.

And so it is.
