The Enchanted Lover's Prayer
I am a student of the Course in Miracles which is a self-study spiritual thought system. It is my anchor in a world that has lost it's way. It is also my primary tool in maintaining my beautiful relationship with "El Guapo." Since I can remember I have been tortured endlessly by the emotional pain in relationships. It was not until a few years ago I said to myself "There must be another way." This is when I began to see that the turbulence I experienced in relationships was really about the turbulence that existed inside myself. I just brought this drama to each new man. In order to grow and heal I realized I needed to find something greater then myself to put my faith into. This new relationship with my higher power was the healing I needed and the missing piece to help me navigate my relationships and emotional pain. It does not matter what your belief is (God/Universe/Jesus/Allah/Buddha), it only matters that you be connected to something deeper then another person. This will create the foundation you need to cultivate real intimacy and love because you will not depend on another person to heal you. You will not need to control and demand that your beloved be and do a certain thing so you will feel love. You will already have love from your relationship to the divine. This will make you less needy, controlling and angry. A man is very attracted to a woman whose primary connection is to something bigger then him. He senses that you are a woman that will bring peace and love to the relationship. This makes a man want to step up and cherish and give to a woman. Find this strength in any way that feels right to you and enchanted love will find you. See author, Marianne Williamson's prayer below from her book, Enchanted Love.
Much Love,
Malena

The Enchanted Lover’s Prayer
Dear God,
I want to be lovable
And prepared for a beloved.
Please remove the walls
From in front of my heart,
And take from me the games I play
To deny myself the joy of life.
Please make me new,
That I might know an enchanted love at last.
Then send to me my heart’s delight.
Please open up the skies of heaven
That love might flood my soul.
Amen.
