“The monster in your closet is really in your head, as is every fear you hold onto. The closet the monster is hiding in is the same closet Jesus told you to go in and pray. It’s no wonder people don’t spend time praying; they’ve got monsters keeping them busy! Fear is a thought of “What if…” but it is still only a thought. What does the answer to a prayer look like? It looks like your thoughts, filtered through the screens of your belief systems, amplified by the amount of faith or love you put into that particular desire, and built out of the things you allow into your life – and in the context of the environment that you have created for yourself.
These are not limitations to the ways prayers can happen; these simply seem to be among the obvious influences which color the answers you receive. Your thoughts are prayers – all of them. Your prayers are answered – all of them.”
Pete Koerner, in “The Belief Formula”
