Personal Retreat
MY AWARENESS OF GOD GROWS IN THE SILENCE.
In my spiritual practice, I may need to move away from the crowd and find time alone with God. Whether I go to a formal retreat center, take a walk in nature, or create a few hours of quiet time at home, I find solace in my time with God.
I let this be my retreat from the activities of the world, a time to cleanse my mind and be nurtured by Spirit. In the Silence, I find a place of serenity where I know the Truth—the spirit of God dwells in me.
In the midst of my personal retreat, my awareness of God is magnified. I affirm God’s power, I am enfolded by God’s love, and I am guided by God’s light. Refreshed and renewed, I return to my activities with joy and enthusiasm.

For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.—Psalm 62:1

Synchronicity
DIVINE LOVE IS CONTINUALLY REVEALING ITSELF TO ME.
As I align my heart and mind with Spirit, I become increasingly aware of amazing events in my life that might be called “happy coincidences.” Perhaps an old friend calls unexpectedly and tells me exactly what I need to know for an important assignment. Or maybe I meet someone special at an event I hesitated to attend.
I am grateful for divine synchronicities. They remind me that I am connected to everyone and everything. Aware of my kinship with all of life, I feel immense love and joy. Nothing happens by chance; all is in divine order.
Synchronicities may be viewed as glimpses of Divine Love’s presence, which brightens my day and illumines my way.

We know that all things work together for good for those who love God.—Romans 8:28

Possible
ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE.
Sometimes my mind may fix on lack or insufficiency—“I don’t have enough”; “There isn’t enough time”; “That idea is impractical.” But I need not limit my vision of what is possible. Just because something was not part of my past does not mean it cannot be part of my future.
Thoughts of doubt and insecurity are simply remnants of an old paradigm that obscure my view. I am grateful that outdated patterns of thinking can be changed once they are acknowledged. I release thoughts that have limited me in the past and open to divine ideas, which are ever-present.
Greater healing, prosperity, and success are mine to claim as an expression of God. A new life is possible for me now.

For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all things are possible.—Mark 10:27

Guidance

SPIRIT GUIDES AND NURTURES MY SOUL.
I am always divinely directed. If I don’t know what to do or say, I remember there is an inexhaustible source of guidance in my soul.
I free myself from any belief of ignorance. I release any fears of insufficiency or inability, and return to the inner stillness, where wisdom arises. I stay quiet and murmur a prayer, “God, speak to me.”
I cultivate the custom of turning to God every time I need direction. In my daily practice, I ask Spirit to speak to my soul. I open my heart, wait patiently, and listen to the sweet whisper of my inner voice. I gratefully receive what is mine to do today.
God’s infinite wisdom is always available for me to draw upon. It guides me in loving ways.

For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.—Matthew 10:20

Heaven
I DELIGHT IN ALL THE JOYS OF HEAVEN, RIGHT HERE AND NOW.
I would never want to postpone my good or delay the manifestation of heavenly blessings. Heaven is not a future destination; heaven is everywhere present. Heaven is a state of consciousness in harmony with God.
The spirit of God is alive and active in me. This Spirit is not only the source of all good, but good itself. Space and time cannot separate me from my good. Here and now, I enjoy all the good there is to enjoy. The blessings of heaven are poured out upon me and I am receptive to their manifestation.
I give thanks that I am blessed with peace, health, and plenty. I am blessed by the grace of God.

Nor will they say, “Look, here it is!’ or “There it is!’ For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you. —Luke 17:21

FAITH FILLS MY HEART AND MIND.
It takes great faith to bring a baby into the world. For Mary, two thousand years ago, who was told she was carrying a child of infinite potential, it must have taken great faith indeed!
As Jesus grew and began his ministry, he taught that we are each filled with infinite potential. He said that with faith, “nothing will be impossible for you.” We unleash this potential when we believe in ourselves and trust in the divine within.
As I move into this sacred season of Christmas, I celebrate my Christ nature. With faith in my heart, I embrace the divine potential that is in me.

If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, “Move from here to there,” and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.—Matthew 17:20
