Fearless

THE PRESENCE OF GOD WITHIN FREES ME FROM FEAR. I AM COURAGEOUS.

Fear is overcome through a consciousness of Truth and courage. When I see my life in its true light, I discover there is nothing to fear. The issues in the external world, the persons and situations that are stirring up fear in me, are part of a world of illusion. There is no truth in the belief that these situations have power over the presence of God within me.

Anytime I feel frightened or confused, I rise above fearful thoughts and become conscious that God is in the very midst of me. With God, I can face anything. I can handle any situation. As my courage increases, my fear diminishes. I abide in a consciousness of courage and Truth.

So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?”—Hebrews 13:6

Harmony

I AM PART OF THE HARMONY OF THE UNIVERSE.

Sometimes I am surprised by the pairing of colors in a painting or fabric. What I thought might clash is actually harmonizing.

Love is the great harmonizing power that weaves all things together. God is love and the entire Universe is created out of love. Nothing—not a star, not a person, not a creature on earth—is excluded from this love.

The power of love within me brings harmony to my life. I allow love to show me the path to peace in all my relationships. Whether this brings me to greater understanding of others, or invites me to release what no longer serves me, peace is the outcome. As an expression of God’s love, I am part of the harmony of the Universe.

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

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

Understanding - Tuesday, October 16, 2012 | Daily WordUnderstanding

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
