All about Love

Home | Daily Word: "TRY LOVE
The supreme love of God knows no defeat.
Love is the solution to virtually every problem. Many of our human disturbances show evidence of a lack of love. When love is brought to bear upon a problem, we soon discover the solution.

If I find myself fearful or hostile toward another person or situation, I turn within to the supreme love of God that knows no defeat.

Perhaps I feel sick or tired, frustrated or concerned. If so, I try love. I fill my mind and body so full of love that there can be no place for dis-ease to linger. The swift flowing current of God's healing love purifies my body, mind and affairs.

Trouble cannot prevail against the power of divine love. When solving a problem seems impossible, I try love.

Let all that you do be done in love.--1 Corinthians 16:14"

When The Journey Gets Tough

We should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead. —2 Corinthians 1:9
In August 2009, Blair and Ronna Martin lost their energetic 9-year-old son Matti when he was dragged to his death by a family cow. I had a chance to meet this Kenai, Alaska, family and share in their grief. And I know how tough this tragedy has been for them.
I also know that they are seeking God’s care and comfort for their pain. An observation made by Matti’s mom is valuable for anyone walking through one of life’s valleys. During one of her down times, Ronna was reading 2 Corinthians 1:9, which says that “we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead.” She felt as if Jesus were telling her, “Ronna, I know the journey has been too much for you, and you are bone-weary. Do not be ashamed of your exhaustion. Instead, see it as an opportunity for Me to take charge of your life.”
When the journey gets too tough to navigate, 2 Corinthians 1:9 is a reminder to us that we don’t travel alone. We have the help of the One who showed us His power in the resurrection, and who will demonstrate His power again when He raises believing loved ones of all generations to eternal life. “My strength and my hope have to be in Christ alone,” Ronna said. That’s a truth we all need as we travel the journey God has for us. —Dave Branon
When life’s journey gets so difficult
That it feels too much to bear,
Just remember, we don’t walk alone—
Our almighty God is there. —Sper
The storms of life remind us to take shelter in the loving arms of our Savior.

The Joy of Living Dr. James A. Lee

Home | Daily Word

JOY
I am the joy of Spirit in expression.
Energized by the change of seasons, I put aside indoor activities when I have the chance to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine of the outdoors. Whether I tend my garden, take a long walk, or sit in the sun at an outdoor cafe, I rejoice in my surroundings.
Yet I can be a joyful person wherever I am, on any day. To prepare the way, I sit quietly, contemplating the presence of Spirit within me. Lingering in the presence of God-essence for a few moments, I feel my mind and body awaken to pure life and joy. I am ready to share the joy of my spirit with everyone I meet.
Spirit within fills my soul with joy. As I open the window of my soul, I let that joy shine out to the world.
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice.--1 Chronicles 16:31

Are You Looking for Peace

Home | Daily Word

JUST BE
I am relaxed and present to this moment.
If I've been speeding around from place to place, task to task, project to project, Igift myself with the experience of being present in this very moment. I set aside any thoughts or concerns about what needs to be done. I relax my body and mind, freeing myself to enjoy just being. Yes, I can just be!
Awareness of the rhythmic flow of my breath ushers me into a relaxed state. I needn't do anything, just be. Whether I enjoy an extended time in the silence or just a few quick moments, I derive the blessing. I am revitalized. The benefits from my time of rest encourage me to take time every day to just be. Be quiet. Be still. Be at peace.
I give thanks for moments of pause and peace that nourish me. Renewed, I embrace the activities ahead with enthusiasm.
One does not live by bread alone.--Luke 4:4

Doing Well

Home | Daily Word

WELLNESS
I am well in mind, body and spirit.
As I focus on wellness--whether mental, physical or spiritual--I become healthier in every area of my life.
Affirmations of Truth promote my mental well-being. I affirm: I am wise with the wisdom of Spirit. I am guided by the light of God. I am one with Divine Mind. I am well.
To care for my physical body, I get adequate rest, eat healthy food and keep my body moving with vigor and enthusiasm. My actions are expressions of faith. I am one with Divine Life. I am strong and I am well.
Prayer and meditation nurture my spiritual health. In the silence, I listen for instruction and guidance. I experience the total well-being that flows from God's presence in me. I am well in mind, body and spirit.
He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."--Luke 8:48

Think about God

Home | Daily Word: "DIVINE MIND
I am one with Divine Mind, the essence of all that is.
Unity co-founder Charles Fillmore said Divine Mind is "the one and only reality," and the mind of an individual can be one with Divine Mind. Everything that exists and everything I experience--the past, the future and the present moment--are aspects of the infinite mind of God.

In prayer, I connect with Divine Mind and listen deeply, opening my mind and heart to what will enlighten, guide and inspire me. If an idea comes to me, prayer and meditation allow me to explore the idea and discern its wisdom. By learning to listen deeply and consciously, I connect with the essence of all that is, the full perfection of the universe.

I give thanks for the presence of Divine Mind within me and within all creation.

Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.--Genesis 1:3"
