\nCan prayer help with weight loss?<\/i>
\nI believe owning a weight problem and having the courage to surrender
\nand ask God for help is the best way possible. Call it prayer,
\nspiritual communication, meditation, or simply belief–just do
\nit–because it works. Once you ask for help, you immediately feel that
\na great weight is lifted. You’re no longer all alone with your problem,
\nand you feel loved. If you could solve your excess weight problem by
\nyourself, you would have by now. We spiritual people with faith on our
\nside have great power given to us. We should use that magnificent power
\nof the universe! Tap into that Sweet Divine Love that’s always there, waiting for us, guiding us, and caring so deeply.
\nIf you are at the end of your rope, and have tried
\neverything–congratulations–you are likely to be very ready to put
\nyour faith into action. God (Jesus, or Higher Power, Spirit, Goddess,
\nNature…) is ready for you, too. Just ask through a prayer…right
\nnow. Just say, “I need help.”
