Honesty

I FACE LIFE HONESTLY, AND I AM FREE.

At times we may feel afraid to be our authentic selves, to expose our real thoughts and feelings for fear of rejection. We may even approach prayer with this same fear. But if we hide our real thoughts, beliefs, and longings, we separate ourselves from God and from others.

We needn’t fear being who we truly are. The self that we try to hide and keep in the background is a worthy and wonderful expression of God.

When we approach prayer with trust and honesty, we find release and peace. Light shines into the dark corners of our mind and heart. Our honest prayer for guidance never goes unanswered. Our honest prayer for understanding is heard. Our honest prayer for Truth sets us free.

The truth will make you free.—John 8:32

Confidence

I TAKE ACTION TO MANIFEST MY HIGHEST GOOD.

Because I have faith in God, I have faith in myself. I have all the tools I need to achieve my dreams, for God within me is all-wise, all-knowing, all-conquering Spirit.

Through the power of God, I transcend any appearance of lack or limitation. If I feel I need more patience, more perseverance, more understanding, or if I want to become a more loving person, Spirit will reveal to me what I must do to succeed and grow.

Through prayer, I draw upon the spirit of God for answers, and I move forward with confidence. I take action to manifest my highest good.

As I keep my mind and heart open to inspiration and guidance, my faith in God increases and so does my faith in myself.

Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.—Psalm 37:5

Journey

I AM FULFILLED ON MY LIFE’S JOURNEY.

When I am at a crossroads, what do I do? Do I take the familiar path or the one less traveled? Whichever path I choose, I make a commitment to enjoy the journey. All paths lead me to, and through, new adventures.

Even when I am not making major life decisions, I enjoy my daily path. Whether I am going to work, to church, or to school, whether I am on vacation or performing a routine task, I remind myself to enjoy all life has to offer. I look around and see the good that abounds. As I do, I experience new joys I might otherwise have missed.

With each new day, I experience fulfillment on my life’s journey.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live.—Ecclesiastes 3:12

Prosperity

I AFFIRM MY DIVINE INHERITANCE AND CLAIM MY GOOD.

Being prosperity-minded means realizing the merit of my spiritual inheritance. I am abundantly blessed with the gifts of Spirit—life, understanding, power, love, imagination, and strength, to name a few. If ever I am concerned about the depth of my spiritual heritage, I tune in to the Silence and let Divine Mind lead me to my good.

I affirm my spiritual birthright and accept my divine legacy of good. I am Divine Life. I am Divine Power. I am Divine Love. These powerful declarations of Truth activate a prosperity consciousness within me, spawning a life of balance, wholeness, and well-being.

We always pray for you, asking that our God will make you worthy of his call and will fulfill by his power every good resolve.—2 Thessalonians 1:11

Tribute

I HONOR THE COURAGE AND SELFLESS SERVICE OF THOSE WHO GAVE TO OUR COUNTRY.

Many nations and cultures set aside a day to pay tribute to those who have sacrificed for the common good. With deep respect, I honor those who have served courageously to preserve our safety and security.

In quiet moments of thankful prayer, I inwardly honor those who have served our nation. I honor them outwardly by allowing their example to inspire my own endeavors.

As I pay homage to the courage and generosity of others who came before me, I also appreciate those qualities in myself and the people I care about. I am grateful for the willingness of people everywhere to give of themselves, creating a better world for all.

If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it.—1 Corinthians 12:26

Wholeness

WHOLENESS IS ALWAYS PRESENT.

I am a divine expression of God—whole, strong, resilient, and vitally alive. Made in the image and likeness of God, I have the capacity to heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

When a health challenge arises in me or someone I care about, I visualize wholeness in the midst of the situation and affirm a mighty healing. I know any illness or injury is temporary, while the immanence of God is permanent.

In prayer and meditation, I picture God’s healing energy in every cell and organ. I affirm wholeness. The life of God flows through me and through those I love. In God, we are whole and healed.

The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.—Matthew 6:22
