Book of Silent Prayer

First published in 1969, Unity’s Book of Silent Prayer quickly became a cherished companion for generations of Unity members.  A rich and thoughtful compilation of Unity prayers, reflections, verse, Biblical readings and affirmations for different occasions.
 
Although the book is now sadly out of print,  we present here a short selection of some of the best prayers from the original, in the form of eight short YouTube videos. The words are read by Steve Gough, Sheila Ross and Patricia Rosser – and accompanied by restful natural images and sounds.

Monthly Reflection for June

June Prayer Service

STAY STRONG ALIVE AND ALERT!  BY MAY ROWLAND

You are wonderful because God created you to be wonderful! You are very important to God because God created you as a perfect expression of divine life. God created you as a living soul and continues to breathe into you the breath of life. The next time you feel run down and at the end of your rope, try giving thanks to God as the source of your life and energy. You will feel a refreshing stream of life renewing your mind and body.
 
Jesus came to show us the true character of life. Remember, He said, “I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly” (Jn. 10:10). He did not indicate that He was preparing us for a future life, but for our present abundant living. We sometimes think that the truths Jesus talked about were just for His immediate followers and that they have nothing to do with us. But Jesus taught eternal truths. The mission of Jesus Christ is to show us that we are eternal beings.
 
A good starting point for renewal and healing in the body can be found in Paul’s words, “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? ... So glorify God in your body” (1 Cor. 6:19-20).
 
Life is a gift of God to each one of us. It is absolutely unlimited, except in our concept of it. We sometimes say that life is consciousness. Our consciousness is made up of what we constantly think, feel, and believe. We express life on the level of our consciousness. This becomes the overall picture of our life’s expression. What we sow into our consciousness every day about life can either help us feel strong, renewed, and well or hinder us by suggesting that we are getting weak and that life is passing us by.
 
Our bodies are willing and loving co-operators with out thoughts and words. As we think about ideas of life and meet in agreement with them, we take them into our subconscious and put them into expression.
 
When we recognise the importance of taking positive ideas into our consciousness, words come to us that are important to our progress. These words came to me, “I am healthy, strong, and beautiful. My body knows it, and my body shows it.” This simple thought has helped strengthen my feeling of eternal life and health.
 
Life constantly renews itself. As we become conscious of the truth that God is the origin and the source of the life within us, we develop a different feeling about what we call life. We realise that this life, which has its origin in God, is everlasting, eternal. Right now is the time to get a clear concept about life and to sow the seeds of life into our body consciousness. Charles Fillmore said that we carry the body in the mind as an idea. So let’s carry the idea of a perfect body in our minds.
 
Let the idea of yourself as a spiritual being become the dominating idea in your mind. As you learn to pray with an idea of your spiritual nature, you will release powers, energies, and forces that will heal and renew your mind and body. Think of yourself as robust, energetic, vigorous. Think of every atom of your body as alight and alive with the life of God.
 
Life is continuous and eternal. The life you feel at this moment is the eternal life of God, flowing in and through you to renew you completely!

Thank you for your prayers and words of comfort. Thank goodness I am feeling very much better from the recent illness… your support has been of great comfort to me.

Joy

From feeling so alone and troubled, the peace I was longing for, and the comfort from knowing I was being enfolded in prayer, came back to me, and is still with me. Thank you for all that you do and give, it helps one so much. Thank you for continuing to hold me and my loved ones in prayer, which you have done for many years now.

Dear Silent Unity,
I phoned last week for prayers to be said for my husband and son. I am very happy and grateful to say that my husband is getting better every day and my son has already been offered a job he likes. Thank you for putting them on your list of prayers. We thank God for the blessing our family always. We thank Unity for their spiritual support and we deeply appreciate your help. Thank you for the kind letters and support you gave us. It is always a pleasure to receive your letters and excited to read them as well. Your letters always give me some peace of mind and draw me closer to God.
