“The correct prayer is therefore never a prayer of supplication, but a prayer of gratitude. When you thank God in advance for that which you choose to experience in your reality, you, in effect, acknowledge that it is there…in effect. Thankfulness is thus the most powerful statement to God; an affirmation that even before you ask, I have answered. Therefore never supplicate. Appreciate.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, The Complete Conversations with God

In March 2023, after reading DL Nemeril’s channeled thoughts on karma in her Your Soul Knows Why You’re Here — a vibrational level that draws the experiences needed for healing and growth to a soul — nothing more — I realized that the law of attraction describes the vibrational pulls of our soul contracts, not what we humans consciously or subconsciously emit.
