Inner Peace

I CENTER MYSELF IN THE PEACE OF GOD.

Within me is a deep and profound peace that I may draw upon when challenges seem overwhelming. I may stand in the midst of chaos, but as I connect with this wellspring of peace, I am centered and calm. Peace radiates from me to quiet any surrounding storms.

The peace of God is within and all around me. I feel it when I share a smile or hug with a friend. I hear it in a kind word or light-hearted laughter. I experience it as I relax, releasing tension in my body. I connect with inner peace as I fill my mind with thoughts of gratitude and love.

I remain centered in the peace and love of God night and day.

My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.—Isaiah 32:18

Let Go, Let God

A GOD-INSPIRED TRANSFORMATION IS TAKING PLACE IN ME NOW.

If I place a package of flower seeds on the shelf instead of planting them, I will retain the seeds, but never see them grow into beautiful, fragrant flowers. Keeping the seeds may give me a sense of control, but I will never enjoy them fully until I plant them and watch as they grow into their full potential.

I take note of times in my own life when I hold on too tightly. If I cling to problems and concerns, they become my focus. No solution arises when I am fixated on lack and limitation. But as I let go of worry, I allow God to work freely in and through me, and my full potential blossoms. As I affirm: I let go and let God, I stop the cycle of worry. I focus on the power of God within and my opportunities expand.

I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.—Matthew 11:10

GOD IS THE SOURCE OF MY WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING.

At times I may feel unable to fully understand or cope with a situation or dilemma in my life. I may have forgotten that God—the Source of all wisdom and understanding—is constantly available to me. I needn’t rely on my human understanding alone. Solutions appear as I turn within to God’s wisdom.

My mind is one with God-Mind, and divine intelligence activates all my thought processes. When I am faced with a perplexing situation, I do not erect barriers by thinking it is too difficult to resolve; instead, I open to divine guidance and feel assured of right resolution. As I become receptive to God’s wisdom, ideas begin to flow and my mind becomes clear and alert.

Who has put wisdom in the inward parts, or given understanding to the mind?—Job 38:36

Beautiful

I AM BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT.

Surrounding myself with beauty soothes and nourishes my soul. I can add beauty to my home by adding fresh flowers or updated furnishings. I may beautify my appearance with stylish clothes.

Yet there’s an inner beauty deeper than I can see. At any age, inner beauty radiates out through positive words and intentions. I stand before a mirror and affirm: I am beautiful inside and out. To beautify my outlook, I focus on the upside in every situation.

The more I focus on inner beauty, the more I attract beautiful expressions in my life. From this elevated awareness, I convey genuine peace and balance. My world is enhanced with grace and beauty.

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who announces peace, who brings good news.—Isaiah 52:7

Create

I HAVE THE POWER TO CREATE A HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL LIFE.

I am creating my life one thought, one feeling, one response at a time. Creation begins in mind as a divine idea. Flashes of insight and inspiration, dreams and desires, manifest into thoughts and words. As I take action and proceed in faith, divine ideas take form in my life.

Through the creative power of imagination and faith, I use my spiritual qualities and gifts, building a life that is secure, prosperous, happy and healthy.

Whether it is a new career opportunity, an innovative approach to overcome a challenge, or an enhancement for the lives of others, I have the God-given power to create a happy, successful life through the creative power of my thoughts, words and actions.

But be glad and rejoice forever in what I am creating.—Isaiah 65:18

WE ARE ALL GOD’S LOVE IN EXPRESSION.

I have been blessed by many teachers in my life—in school, in my family, by books and by circumstances. Nature is also my teacher. For example, as I learn about pollination, I see the inherent harmony and cooperation among species. The flowers provide nectar for the bees; the bees collect the pollen and cultivate even more flowers.

While other people may focus on what seems wrong with the world, I notice what is right with the world. The diversity of people and the divergent environments on planet Earth enrich our lives in myriad ways. As we commit to living in harmony with others, we express divine harmony and love. God is love, and God created the world as a home for all. Let us live in peace.

And now, my children, listen to me: happy are those who keep my ways.—Proverbs 8:32
