DIVINELY INSPIRED, I CREATE A WONDERFUL LIFE.

I cherish my capacity to receive inspiration from Spirit, to create and use the power of my thoughts, words, and actions to manifest my good in the world.

At the center of my being is an all-­knowing guide. This divine source contains the ideas and answers I need to create a wonderful life. My job is to design that life and call on the wisdom of divine guidance to create it in the physical world.

Through prayer, I ask Spirit to show me the way. I listen carefully and discern what is mine to do. I trust my intuition and realize I am here to live in happiness and joy. I deserve to be inspired by Spirit. I deserve to have a beautiful life.

O you who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice; let me hear it.—Song of Solomon 8:13

Comfort - Tuesday, May 27, 2014 | Daily Word

THROUGH UNDERSTANDING, I AM COMFORTED.

If I am bewildered or distressed by the challenges I face, I turn within in heart and mind for divine understanding. From my human perspective, life may at times appear unjust; but from a divine perspective, every experience has a higher meaning.

Difficult situations are like the trips and falls of childhood—even through occasional tears, I learned and improved. As I look back now, I realize that these challenges were my greatest teachers.

I am comforted and strengthened as my understanding deepens. I stand strong through times of doubt and keep my consciousness open to the larger truth.

My mind and heart are at peace as I trust in the eternal goodness of God and the unfolding wonder of life.

O comfort my people, says your God.—Isaiah 40:1

WITH GRATITUDE, I REMEMBER MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO HAVE SERVED.

In prayer today, I send heartfelt gratitude to veterans who lost their lives in service to this country. I affirm peace and well-being for those still serving and pray that their families sense the all-encompassing love and comfort of Spirit.

In Truth, we are one—eternally united in God. Every gesture of faith and deed of courage affects us all. Every demonstration of loyalty, act of service, and expression of kindness imprints itself on the whole of humanity.

I give thanks for all who have served, all who are serving, and all who will serve a greater good in our world. Nothing that is of God—of good—is ever lost, wasted, or forgotten.

We do not live to ourselves, and we do not die to ourselves. If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord.—Romans 14:7-8

Inner Peace - Sunday, May 25, 2014 | Daily Word

IN THIS MOMENT, THERE IS ONLY GOD, ONLY PEACE.

Peace alone is real. As I meditate on this affirmation, I shift my vision from the external world and enter into conscious oneness with God. Abiding in the Presence, I remember that no persons, challenges, or situations can disturb my peace-filled soul.

As a center of peace, I am able to meet the pressures and tensions of the outer world with grace and ease. Even in tumultuous circumstances, I turn to the Christ within and maintain my calm.

In this moment, there is only God, only peace. No matter what events take place in the world or in my life, I am a steady center of spiritual strength for all those whose lives meet mine.

Those of steadfast mind you keep in peace—in peace because they trust in you.—Isaiah 26:3

Faith

MY FAITH IS STRONG AND ACTIVE.

My faith is a vital, vibrant part of my spiritual life. Through faith, I know that I am whole and well, no matter the situation. Through faith, I recognize my life overflowing with God’s good and blessed with prosperity.

Faith implies action to boldly step forward, move on, or stand strong, regardless of the challenge. If my faith wavers, I turn within in prayer. A brief reconnection with God brings me the assurance I need to continue on.

I energize my faith through prayer and meditation, staying centered in the Power that is always with me, directing my steps. My faith is steady and strong.

By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible.—Hebrews 11:3
