Maybe It’s Time to Pray for Love

Last night, I had a dream that didn’t feel like a dream. It felt like instruction.

A quiet voice — steady, certain — said to me:

Pray for love.

It stopped me. Because for a long time, my prayers have been different.

I prayed for clarity. For opportunity. For growth. For clients. For money. For progress.

For all the things that build achievement and ensure stability in the world we live in.

Love rarely made the list — not because I dismissed it, but because I wasn’t sure I trusted it.

Love can feel unpredictable.

It can ask us to soften when we spent years learning to be strong.

It can open doors we don’t feel ready to walk through.

And yes, it can hurt.

For women and men who have built themselves, who learned to stand without leaning, who survived not by being delicate but by being determined — love can feel like a risk we don’t always want to take.

But that dream made me stop and look at the truth:

I was praying for the symptoms of abundance, not the source of it.

Because real wealth is not simply success, or clients, or recognition, or momentum.

It is emotional expansion. Safe relationships. A peaceful nervous system.

A regulated heart. A soft place to land. A brave place to rise from.

Love is not a distraction.

Love is alignment.

Love is the quality that influences every outcome: how we lead, how we speak, who we attract, how we show up, and how deeply we allow ourselves to receive.

Love deepens intuition.

It strengthens discernment.

It refines standards.

It opens doors that force never could.

And it brings a different kind of success — one that does not cost your nervous system, your softness, or your soul.

Wealth without love is survival.

Wealth with love is expansion.

So today, I choose to pray for love.

Not as romance alone, but as a state of being:

Connection. Openness. Inner calm. Mature warmth. Grounded trust.

A heart that can hold more, not just manage more.

I heard the nudge.

I acknowledge it.

And I am answering it.

What are you praying for?

And more importantly — are you brave enough to pray for what might change you?

Blessings,

Dana
