 Hi, this is George Cowell. So the other day I was walking here in the park and I'll just kind of show you around the park here beautiful beautiful park now I Wasn't wearing a jacket because it was a warm day like today, and I was just carrying my keys in one hand and It's walking my dog playing with my dog and then at some point. I noticed that the keys were gone I had lost the keys and the reason I'm showing you this scene is because Well, I was walking all over the reservoir I mean literally I was I was walking up and down these these steps. I was walking down there. I Was walking of course all around you can't you can't see but this the park goes all around I was walking all around and I was just so nervous because that those are those are my those are house keys PO box keys mailbox house mailbox keys and so I started praying really hard to say you know God it's time to time to show yourself and You know angels spirit guides, please please please help me if it's God's will you know find help me find these keys help me see them and You know, I was even going up there just playing with my dog at some point and I'm just really praying hard just really just really focused on it and at some point What happened was as I saw another dog's name was lucky and say hi to them And then surely after as I was walking along I Well, okay, see if I can see if I can find it now. I was walking along and I found my keys But now they're where are they now? Okay, walking along right you can see that it's it's not it's not at all obvious, but my eyes knew where to look and I found my keys Right there, and so I guess this in this short video I just want to I Want to talk about whether prayer works I Don't know what your beliefs are, but I believe that we are always being Protected and guided by by good spirits that see a lot more obviously than than we can and They do the will of the Creator the Great Spirit God might say or the loving force in the universe and We often forget to ask for the help of of these spirit guides Even though they're with us all the time and You might say George, you're crazy. You know, there's no scientific proof for any of this Well, there's some interesting proof that I'll include in the notes of this video I've studied a lot. I well probably more than most people on this stuff and I've come to believe and So so I guess what I'm trying to say this interesting story is that I didn't find the keys Until after I'd been praying or even though I'd been looking for half an hour And then I started praying hard and then I found the keys and also I didn't find the keys until after I saw The dog called lucky because this is a neighborhood dog And it's like lucky and then literally half a minute later I found the keys and I've always found it interesting. I think in my life I've never experienced anything supernatural you might say that this was supernatural But I've never really experienced anything paranormal supernatural and yet I believe and I feel like that's maybe like my life path is to believe Without personally having experienced anything supernatural. I've done the research. I believe that there's there's enough scientific evidence for it, but It's interesting that it wasn't after if I found the dog lucky until I found the keys I was like, okay, this could have been seen as luck or this could have been seen as prayer And or this can be seen as diligence just like walking the park until I found the keys Interpret it how you will but That's the thing about spirituality is that and that's the thing about faith is that for most of us we are not lucky enough to experience anything paranormal or supernatural and Maybe get our heart and their spirit is calling us to believe and I'll just want to say you know Even if you're don't believe in anything even if you're secular the benefit of prayer is That it focuses your mind on the task It focuses you on what is higher than because I was praying, you know, if it's God's will Let me find the keys. Let me see where they are in this big huge park If it's God's will and if I didn't find the keys Thanks to my faith, I would say, you know what I tried I prayed and I looked so it's the old saying, you know Believe God but tie your camel. It's like God wants you to do things Yet believing and still trusting that whatever happens is God's will right so if I didn't find the keys I would have been fine. I would have been I would have had peace in my heart knowing that you know what I guess it wasn't God's what I'd really tried I circled three times if it wasn't God's will I would have you know, I didn't find the keys. Maybe I'll ask my wife later to help me find it, but I would have had peace and I would have kept having a higher perspective that there's something good that will come out of this even though it was it was a Temporary inconvenience. I probably would have we would have probably had to change the locks as we're in the neighborhood here and so I'm gonna encourage you the takeaway from this is if you have faith I I Hope that this will get you to pray more again and Pray that if it's God's will to have something out but to really pray pray hard pray focus that kind of would really love For this to happen if it's your will and if it doesn't happen I know that it's not your will and that I need to be at peace with it So I hope this is encouraging. I know it's kind of a long story, but until the next video I wish you I wish you faith in the path that you feel called to walk
