Novena
 
I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the popular novena to St. Jude? It has supposedly never been known to fail...

I'm not really much of a religious person, I've pretty much developed my own set of beliefs, but I am curious about this. If anyone is interested, I would be glad to type it up and post it here.

I'm a firm believer that whatever you believe deep down is true. It's different for every individual and this is why religion works for some and not others. What it all comes down to is that individual consciousness is the ultimate creator of every aspect of a persons life. Therefore, if you believe wholeheartedly that the novena will work, then it probably will.

I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this particular one?

WE, as people, have the power to make things happen...A strong belief that something CAN and WILL happen lights a fire in us that gets it done

You can't just sit on your ass, do nothing, and wait for some outside influence to change your life....If you do nothing, nothing will be done

Logic

Exactly what I think, but I do feel that having some level of spirituality is beneficial. Do you like to read?

I see. If you want some good recommendations in the metaphysical category, let me know.

I never got much into astrology, maybe I will start checking that out. If you ever get a chance, read "The Nature of Personal Reality" by Jane Roberts and "The Self Aware Universe" by Goswami. Really amazing stuff.
