Love is The Word
Joining family, friends and my community in this season of love, I feel a generosity of spirit. Divine Love connects us to one another. It encourages cooperation. As we share God's love from within, we express appreciation and respect for each other.
I love and accept myself, and I love and accept others. Love brings forgiveness to strained relationships and healing to old hurts or misunderstandings. Love transforms conflict into harmony.
When I see with the eyes of love, I see possibilities for good in all people and circumstances. The more love I give, the more love grows in me. I am filled with joy as I express love with a happy heart.

Do not Worry by A.W. Pink-Anxiety
Booklets and Pamphlets
by A.W. Pink
Anxiety
"Be anxious for nothing" Philippians 4:6
Philippians 4:6
Worrying is as definitely forbidden as theft. This needs to be carefully pondered and definitely realized by us, so that we do not excuse it as an innocent "infirmity." The more we are convicted of the sinfulness of anxiety, the sooner are we likely to perceive that it is most dishonoring to God, and "strive against" it (Heb. 12:4). But how are we to "strive against" it?
First, by begging the Holy Spirit to grant us a deeper conviction of its enormity. Second, by making it a subject of special and earnest prayer, that we may be delivered from this evil. Third, by watching its beginning, and as soon as we are conscious of harassment of mind, as soon as we detect the unbelieving thought, lift up our heart to God and ask Him for deliverance from it.
The best antidote for anxiety is frequent meditation upon God’s goodness, power and sufficiency. When the saint can confidently realize "The Lord is My Shepherd," he must draw the conclusion, "I shall not want!" Immediately following our exhortation is, "but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be made known unto God." Nothing is too big and nothing is too little to spread before and cast upon the Lord. The "with thanksgiving" is most important, yet it is the point at which we most fail. It means that before we receive God’s answer, we thank Him for the same: it is the confidence of the child expecting his Father to be gracious.
"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought (anxious concern) for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?" "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." (Matthew 6:25,33)

I am uplifted by the grace of God.
The early followers of Jesus set an example of how to move through the world with infinite grace. When I am in a tense or stressful situation, I call upon the Christ in me to help me respond with grace and understanding. In doing so, I experience the delight of graceful expression.
When I remain in a peaceful state, my heart opens wide and I create a force field of loving energy. Acting from the Christ within, I allow others to be where they are without judging them, or myself.
I am inspired to be more gracious and accepting, to love myself and others fully and completely. By allowing the grace of Spirit to move through me freely, I help create a world that is loving, kind and compassionate.
Stephen, full of grace and power, did great wonders and signs among the people.--Acts 6:8"

Touching God is The Joy of Jesus
In hallowed moments, I am one with the Divine.
Often we are separated from objects considered too valuable to touch--artwork, sculpture, relics from antiquity--but communing with the truly sacred is an experience of touching the Divine.
I close my eyes, take a gentle breath and leave the clutter and clatter behind. I remember a holy moment full of love and oneness. I rest in the quiet chapel of my mind and heart.
In the stillness I feel the presence of pure Love. Enfolded in this Love, my heart opens ever wider until there is no "me and Love," there is only "Love." Time stops and I am ageless. I am Love and every possibility of Love. I rest in this hallowed moment until a thought stirs me back into the world.
O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell, and the place where your glory abides. --Psalm 26:8"
