Why then, do our prayers go unanswered????
Answered prayer does not always mean that we get what we want. I do believe that sometimes God says no to our prayers because He knows what is best for each person. It is beyond our human understanding to know what is best as we can't see the big picture. In saying that I do believe that we receive what we need for our soul growth and life lessons that we have come to earth to learn and sometimes it is for our loved ones highest good that our prayers seem to go unanswered. While this can be extremely hard to accept, believing this does help to let go of some of the anger that we can sometimes feel towards God. I prayed with such intensity for Zoe's healing that when the doctor's told me that she wasn't going to make it, I didn't believe them. I always thought that she would be healed physically. I had enormous trust and faith in God that He would heal my daughter as I could not bear to think of the alternative. Lea was so supportive during this time and actually gave me a tiny mustard seed as a sign of our faith that we both had for Zoe's healing. At first I felt extremely betrayed by God and the Angels, but on my quest for answers I have learnt that healing has many levels and healing can sometimes be on an emotional or spiritual level and maybe this was the case with Zoe. Acceptance is never easy and my heart still aches with the pain of separation. What helps me is that I believe that her earthly work was done and it was time for her to go on to do her heavenly work. I still pray because I believe that God does hear our prayers, but now my prayers are for my loved ones highest good believing that there is a Grand Design or plan that is far beyond our human understanding and I trust that all is being taken care of. I ask, believe, say thank you and let it go asking for a sign that all is well.
A Prayer of Trust and Gratitude
"Dear God, I trust that no matter what happens in my life, it is for my highest good. And no matter what happens in the lives of those I love, it is for their highest good. From all things you put before us, we shall become stronger and more loving people. I am grateful for all the beauty and opportunity you put into my life. And in all that I do, I shall seek to be a channel for your love." Amen

A Prayer for Healing
That is carried from God by Michael, Thy Archangel
Pour out, Thy Healing Angels,
Thy Heavenly Host upon me,
And upon those that I love,
Let me feel the beam of Thy
Healing Angels upon me,
The light of Your Healing Hands.
I will let Thy Healing begin,
Whatever way God grants it,
Amen.’

I thankyou and I praise you.'
I also have a Healing Journal containing photos of loved ones, Holy pictures and prayers. I send distance prayers and healing energy to my loved ones, whilst surrounding them with rainbows.
