Book Description
At age 30 Evan Moffic became the leader of a large congregation. He had great success. But he couldn't find happiness. Then he found a 2000-year-old prayer. In it were hidden elements of Jewish wisdom. They became a part of his life and those of his congregation and transformed them and him. What if we had a clear path to follow when life disappointed us? What if we had a time-tested guide for a life of deeper meaning and happiness? That is what Rabbi Moffic discovered in an ancient Jewish prayer. Based on ten practices any person can follow, the prayer has helped thousands of people-couples, teenagers, empty nesters struggling with loss, divorce, and ruptured relationships-find renewed meaning and purpose in their lives. Moffic discovered the power of the prayer when he was called to become the youngest rabbi to lead a large US synagogue at just thirty years of age. The prayer became his guidepost, providing him with the wisdom to lead beyond his years. By incorporating the power of this prayer into his life and using it to guide his congregation and community, he became known as "the smiling rabbi." In the tradition of Rabbi Harold Kushner, Rabbi Evan Moffic opens up the Jewish wisdom tradition with insights for today. Drawing from interactions with thousands of congregants, as well as his own experience; relating stories of real people; providing accessible commentary from contemporary psychologists; and sprinkling in warm humor, this rabbi of a new generation reveals the means and meaning of joyous living that will appeal to everyone.

Prayers for Happiness
Author: Revd Elijah Turner
Publisher: Tiny Shoe Media
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 19
Book Description
In this eBook, you will find a collection of prayers designed to guide you toward happiness, peace, and joy. Happiness is something everyone seeks, but sometimes it feels elusive. We look for it in achievements, possessions, relationships, and even in fleeting moments. However, true happiness is not something that can be found outside of ourselves. It is within, waiting to be discovered. It is through prayer that we can access this inner joy, connect with our higher power, and cultivate the peace that comes from within. The power of prayer has been a source of strength and comfort for centuries. Prayer allows us to pause, reflect, and invite spiritual energy into our lives. It is a way to express our desires, to seek help, and to offer thanks. When we pray for happiness, we are not simply asking for external circumstances to change, but we are asking for guidance and strength to cultivate joy within ourselves, no matter what life brings. Throughout this eBook, you will explore different themes of happiness—how to embrace the present moment, how to find joy in our faith, how to let go of negative emotions, and how to cultivate love, peace, and hope. Each chapter will focus on a specific aspect of happiness and will include a prayer to help guide you along your journey. It is important to remember that prayer is not about a perfect set of words or a specific ritual. Prayer is a conversation with the divine, an intimate exchange of thoughts, hopes, and desires. Each time you pray, you invite God, the universe, or your higher self to intervene in your life. It is an opportunity to open your heart, reflect on what truly matters, and receive the guidance you need to create a life full of joy. We begin our journey of happiness with the understanding that happiness is a choice. It is not something we wait for or search for in the future—it is something we can create right now. Every prayer in this eBook is a tool to help you recognize the many blessings in your life and to encourage you to live fully, embracing every moment with faith and gratitude. As you read through the following chapters, take your time with each prayer. Don't rush through them. Allow yourself to be present in each moment, letting the words resonate deeply in your heart. Prayer is not just about asking for something but also about feeling the gratitude, peace, and love that already exist in your life. When you pray with an open heart, you invite more goodness into your life. This eBook is not just a collection of prayers but a reminder that happiness is already within you, waiting to be nurtured.
