There is a Power and Presence that responds to our prayers even to the point of healing our bodies of sickness and disease. Now, most of us as creative individuals experience some form of mental and emotional sickness which is one of the major causes of our not getting what we want out of life. The following is an example of how I used prayer to heal the emotional body of my daughter, so she could release her fear of death.
My 12-year old daughter, Madeleine, was sick last week and I wasn’t able to spend much time with her because she wanted to sleep at her moms. When she came to stay with me, I could tell that she had something on her mind, so I suggested that we do something different and skip her first class to go out for breakfast. It’s amazing how when we shift things up a little and do something out of the ordinary, a doorway opens up for growth. Madeleine would usually feel more comfortable talking out her concerns with her mom, but in this case she was open to sharing with me.
During breakfast, she shared with me that she is having a hard time concentrating in school because she keeps thinking about her friend’s mom who was diagnosed with cancer. This led us into a conversation about death and I shared with her how difficult it was for me when my dad died of a heart attach in front of me when I was 8 yrs old and how I have now come to understand that death is not the end of life, because life is eternal and although our bodies die our spirit or soul lives on forever.
She shared with me that her friends at school were all atheists and she herself is becoming one due to the fact that she is confused and doesn’t know what to believe. As a side note: I think it is a shame that children these days are lacking in faith, not only in God or a higher power, but in themselves as a divine creation with the understanding that they are indubitably connected to Spirit. After discussing faith and honoring her for her belief… or non-belief in God, we talked about the fact that because her friends mom was diagnosed with cancer that it does not have to be viewed as a death notice and that there are lots of people who heal themselves of sickness and disease. I shared with her that one of our friends was diagnosed with cancer three different times and only given less than a year to live and that was over ten years ago.
Madeleine then shared that her mom told her about the movie “The Secret” and how a woman cured herself of cancer by listening to funny tapes and laughed her way back to good health. It was pretty interesting to me that she mentioned that because I gave her mom “The Secret” over two years ago when she was working through some issues and she never watched it until now… at a time when she needed it hear it I guess. It never ceases to amaze me how Spirit works in such a way that something you do for someone years ago can take that long to germinate and become ripe enough for it to bear fruit. I truly believe that all is good!
I took a huge leap in faith when I shared with Madeleine that I believe that we can not only heal ourselves, but that we can also heal others and proceeded to tell her of a time when her Grandparents were both very sick and the doctors couldn’t determine what was wrong with them. My friend, who was madeleine’s aunt, shared with me at the time that she was concerned about her mom and dad and had to accept the fact that they were both well into their 80’s and she would have to get used to the fact that they just might die. I told Madeleine that I did a prayer treatment with her aunt concerning her parent’s health and the both of them became well immediately thereafter. As a matter of fact the doctors found a blocked artery in her grand-dad and when he finally went in for the angioplasty the doctors couldn't find the blockage because it had disappeared. Madeleine was familiar with treatment because we had done them many times before when we wanted to manifest something in our life, but never connected it with using the same power to heal our bodies and free them from disease.
When I left her off at school she was really quiet and I asked her if she wanted to do a prayer for her friend’s mom and she shook her head. I began to speak the word for her friend’s mom, recognizing the perfect wholeness that existed within her body temple, and then proceeded to unify her in consciousness with the perfection of Spirit Itself. When I was done with the prayer, and kissed my daughter goodbye, her smile told me that she had released any concern about her friend’s mom and I know that she left the car in complete faith that our prayer had been answered.

Affirmative Prayer
If we are to connect with all of our “Good” and create all of the things necessary for us to experience success in our life as a creative being, then it is imperative that we learn how to Pray Affirmatively. Affirmative Prayer is an alternative to pleading with God, or Spirit to hear your prayers, and is much more effective in bringing the things you are praying for into your life. When we approach prayer in this way, something profound happens in that the things we are praying for instantly appear in our life. It is measured according to our belief is what the Master taught over 2,000 years ago. Affirmative Prayer or "Speaking The Word" as it is sometimes called, is prayer that comes from the belief that whatever we ask for is already given and through our faith in the infinite Power and Presence of Spirit to bring it to us, we open up a channel for it to appear in our reality.
Affirmative Prayer is not something that comes easy to people who were brought up with the belief that only some of our prayers are answered and only when Spirit feels moved to do so. I remember a time when I would “make deals” with God, that if "He" answered my prayer I would believe in Him and would follow His ways. That seemed to work for a time only I wouldn’t often hold up my end of the bargain and would fall back into feeling not worthy to ask for anything else. How silly is that?
I now realize that God, cannot be defined or even imagined because the more we try to pigeon hole God into our personal view of "It", the further we get from knowing the true Spirit of All That Is. A clearer understanding of God and one that works for me is to look at the nature of God and the principles under which It operates.
One of the principles that I would like to discuss and one that is key to applying affirmative prayer is the belief that we are surrounded by an infinite Intelligence, which I refer to as the mind of the Infinite Filmmaker, which knows Itself to be all that I AM and doesn’t hold back from expressing Itself in my (our) life. If you can imagine that you are living in a movie that is being created by God, the Infinite Filmmaker, and as a character in this universal movie… you are a reflection of this Infinite Filmmaker in much the same way that a filmmaker in the physical world puts some aspect himself into every character he creates in his movie. He can’t help but to create his characters with some aspect of his personality, character, and nature into his film and so it is with God, the Infinite Filmmaker when He created you as a character in this universal movie called “Life”. We are not praying to something outside of ourselves to do something for us… we are praying to something that we are indubitably connected to that is already doing for us what we asked for. By praying affirmatively we opening ourselves to receiving that which is already given in the mind of the Infinite.
When you speak… your word goes to the place in Infinite Mind where the thing that you spoke of exists. It is as if your word is the direct connection to the thing that you prayed for allowing it to show up in your life. There was a time when I believed my prayers were cast out among the stars and randomly they would be answered depending on the mood of God. But now I see that all our prayers are answered before we even ask them. As the Master said, “ask and it is given, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened.” We just have to act as if we already have what we pray for and it will appear in our reality. This is where the ingredient of faith comes in. We just have to believe that the eternal gift is given, act as if it were already there and then give thanks for receiving it and it will appear… it is as simple as that. There is a very effective method of praying affirmatively that was taught to me when I studied at the Agape Spiritual Center that is a 5 step process and is what is commonly referred to as a treatment or affirmative prayer. I do treatments on a daily basis for everything from healing myself and others when we are sick to bringing people and things into my life that I need to move forward in my vision to teach these spiritual principles to creative individuals in the entertainment industry. It is very powerful prayer and it works! To learn more about treatments and affirmative prayer I invite you to register as a member of The Infinite Filmmaker website. You will be updated on my upcoming classes and events that teach these powerful principles.

Listening to Intuition
I often speak about a “Higher Intelligence” that governs our lives and how important it is to connect with this intelligence and learn to listen closely to It’s direction. In my Infinite Filmmaker teachings, I refer to this Intelligence as The Infinite Filmmaker who is creating this movie called “Life” in a perfect, whole and complete way.
Now if we are to experience this movie of our life in the way that the Infinite Filmmaker intended it to be, we are going to have to listen closely to the direction of this divine intelligence and one of the ways that we can do this is to lsiten to our own intuition. It is through our own consciousness that God, The Infinite Filmmaker communicates with us. I refer to this listening to our intuition as the “Still Small Voice” that aligns us with Higher Intelligence.
Last night I was fortunate enough to be able to listen to that “Still Small Voice” and it invariably opened a door to my vision of teaching my metaphysical classes at Film Festivals all over the world.
I had planned on attending the 8th Annual Downtowners of Distinction Awards last night with my girlfriend Jennifer, who is a commissioned artist that paints watercolors of Downtown buildings. She wanted to use it as a networking opportunity and although I didn’t think it would be a great networking opportunity for me, I wanted to attend to suport her work as an artist. As it turned out I didn’t get off work until after the event already started and didn’t expect to arrive there until it was almost over. I called Jennifer and explained that I wouldn’t be able to meet up with her and would just see her when she arrived home.
My rational mind was telling me not to attempt to make it to the event on time, and yet my intuitive mind was telling me to just go and support Jennifer even if I was going to be late. Luckily, I learned to listen to my intuition, knowing that it is Higher Intelligence speaking, so I decided to head downtown and see how far I would get in the rush hour traffic. When I hit Wilshire Blvd., suddenly the traffic opened up and I made it to the awards program just as they were giving out the award to Henry Priest, the director of the 1st "Los Angeles Downtown Film Festival" for his work in bringing the film community to the downtown area.
Now some may call this a coincidence, but I believe that when we follow through on our intuition, the earth just opens up and the Universe brings to us just what we need to create the life we desire. I have always wanted to teach my metaphysical film classes at festivals all over the world and was waiting for the right time to pursue this dream. I believe that my meeting Henry Priest at the award program last night is a message from the Infinite Filmmaker that that time is now!

One with the Infinite Filmmaker
In my last Blog I spoke about the Omnipotent nature of the Infinite Filmmaker and eluded to the fact that it is us and not the Infinite Filmmaker, that is blocking all of our good in this movie called "Life." In this Blog we will examine some of the principles that the infinite Filmmaker uses to create everything in this universe in such a perfect way including our lives. We will learn about the law of cause and effect and discover how to apply this law to create prosperity, abundance and success in your life as a creative individual. "Your life is created in the exact same way that the Divine creator creates everything in the universe... from the infinite solar system to the birth of a child it is all created in the same way. There is a law behind all creation and just as physical laws, mathematical laws, and scientific laws can be understood and then utilized, so too can spiritual laws be used for creating everything in your life in such a perfect way. Up until now most of you have been using these same laws to create lack, limitation and disharmony in your life. It's the same law, only different results. We will learn to use these laws for the purpose of tapping into the Infinite Power of the universe to create positive results in our life's movie."
Contrary to what one may think, we are not subject to the causes around us and do have control over the results that we experience in our movie called "Life." We live in a world of causes and effects and yet we can choose to set the causes in motion that will create the effect that we desire. We are not at the mercy of an inconsistent filmmaker who chooses to create havoc in this universal movie
There is one great cause behind everything in this universal movie and everything is an effect or result of this one great cause which I will call The Infinite Filmmaker for the purpose of this blog. Nothing can exist without this one cause for everything is a reflection of this One Cause and just as you cannot separate a wave from the ocean, or the gold from a gold pen, the gold is the gold pen and so too are we and everything we experience in this movie called life... one with the Infinite Filmmaker. Wherever we are the Infinite Filmmaker is there also. We cannot be seperated from the source no matter how hard we try and this is the second principle that we must understand in order to create change in our life. When you are looking at yourself you are seeing the Infinite Filmmaker and all is just as it should be.
Each character in this movie called "Life" is a unique individual expression of the Infinite Filmmaker. There are no two characters alike in this movie and there is something that each one of you can do that no one else can do. Just as we being creative artists have this need to express ourselves in our films by creating characters that are some aspect of ourselves, so does the Infinite filmmaker have this need to express Itself In and as our lives. We are made of the same substance of the Infinite Filmmaker and everything that the Infinite Filmmaker can do, which is limitless, It can have Its characters do also. Each individual character is created in the image and likeness of the Divine Filmmaker and how can it be otherwise? How can It create something that It is not, since It is everything? Each individual, you and I, in this movie called "Life" has in us the potential to become anything and experience everything that the Divine Filmmaker can think of without limitation, because there is no limit in the mind of the Infinite Filmmaker! We can and do experience everything that is held in the mind of this Divine Filmmaker and that is why life is so rich with experiences and there is no limit to those experiences. Think about this, we are in this movie called "Life" and experiencing whatever it is that the Divine Creator can imagine us experiencing and nothing is being held back. Now let me ask you something the same thing that I had to ask myself many years ago? If God, The Infinite Filmmaker is not holding back anything from Its creation of this movie called "Life", then who is keeping us from being all that we were meant to be. Who is keeping us from experiencing success in this life? Who is keeping us from fully expressing our unlimited selves? Does anybody have an answer? Of course we are and we are doing it through our consciousness, whether we are aware of it or not.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
What you will learn in my workshops is that there is nothing to keep you from creating success in your life. As a matter of fact the original script that was written for your life by the Infinite Filmmaker, has success written all over it. What you will discover in these workshops, is that you are supported by an infinite Intelligence that is everywhere present, and is just waiting to reveal itself in and as and through your life as an Infinite Filmmaker and it does so through our consciousness.
Please come back next month and I will tell you how to get a hold of the script that was written by the Infinite Filmmaker for that perfect life that you were meant to be experiencing. Till then start to look within and there you will catch glimpses of the Infinite Screenplay.
