  • Life-giving

    Meditation Drawing 4.28 – Life-giving

    Life is given to us through Grace.

    We are able to discern this when things work out for us in unpredictible good ways.

    The power of grace is that it is unconditional.

    It happens through divine Love.

    It becomes the Light in our world, a reminder that there is a Higher Power.

    Health is part of the bestowal of our Higher Power.

    It comes to us as we release limitations as causative and embrace an unstoppable spiritual law regarding our body.

    We are motivated to seek out our Higher Power in order to experience this law.

    The life-giving power of spiritual law is observable in Nature.

    We think of it as Natural Law.

    It makes all things grow in harmony.

    We experience harmonious function in our life when we align with our heart’s desire.

    We are happier and we find wonderful new ways of doing what we love.

    This has a healing and uplifting influence in how we carry out our business.

    It becomes one of the life-giving aspects of our community.

    We naturally do things with integrity and grace.

    We bring everyone into our circle of uplifting, life-giving happiness.

    Those who want to experience what we have to give show up as clients, friends, and neighbors.

    As we tend toward the life-giving aspects of community, we participate in creating well-being for all.

    We are all worthy, beautiful, precious.

    We all have gifts, talents, and skills to contribute.

    Whatever is standing in the way of universal expression gives way before the power of life-giving Grace.

    We can emulate this grace as we provide space for all to express their gifts in our community.

  • From adversity into joy

    A Year of Joy #14 – From adversity into joy

    To move from adversity into joy, we have to create room for it.

    A pause, a deep breath, gives us a moment.

    From that moment, we decide where we want to go.

    Do we return to the adversity, or do we make that moment an opportunity to pivot?

    What do we create in that moment?

    We have the opportunity over and over again until we choose joy.

    That is the first tiny step to build a new foundation.

    Over and over again, as we make the choice for joy, we create a stronger and larger foundation.

    We collect many new experiences of joy until that becomes our constant choice.

    Then we know we have learned how to conquer adversity.

    Of course, the Universe wants us to expand even more, so we are given more challenges and more opportunities to increase our joy.

    We become more confident in our joy.

    We build ways to keep ourselves in a joyful state.

    We discover ways to live naturally in joy.

    We acquire a real respect for our new ability.

    We know how important it is to practice joy in order to keep it around us.

    We associate in joyful ways.

    We stay as full of joy as possible.

    We reflect in quietude when we need to refresh our joy.

    We stayed tuned to joy.

    We reject what is not joyful from our past.

    We celebrate our newfound skills to practice joy.

    Our joy overflows into our community.

    We feel grateful to build a community through joy.

  • Peace is mine forever.

    Pebbles of Peace Pathways 4.25 – Peace is mine forever.

    Now that I am learning how to cultivate peace for myself, I am realizing that is has always been there, but I did not know how to access it.

    I turn within many times a day to find the peace there.

    I listen for the ideas to express peacefully.

    I am generous, much more generous, in my thoughts towards others.

    I do not know what they are dealing with, but it can’t be good if they are so unhappy.

    I take three deep breaths (www.takethreedeepbreaths.blogspot.com) to remind myself of my place within the world.

    I sing myself a little song, one of many which I invent, to help me appreciate myself.

    This helps me establish the peace from within so that I can express it around me.

    The peace that I find feels like it has been flowing forever.

    People through the ages have written about peace by sharing their thoughts as poems or paintings.

    They have always been able to draw on their rich resources of peace.

    I am learning to do that, too.

  • Powerful

    Meditation Drawing 4.27 – Powerful

    What is the power in our life?

    Is it from within or without?

    Do we have power within us or our we at the mercy of all the power struggles around us?

    I choose to exercise the power within me through inner listening.

    This power is consistent and it is really close to me.

    It affects how I see the world.

    When I get disturbed by the images which are brought to me by the news, I turn away from them.

    I reestablish my inner peace many times each day.

    In my peaceful, powerful state, I gain clarity.

    I know what to do and when to do it.

    I maintain my hold on the inspiration which comes to me.

    As I let it permeate my being, it describes my day.

    I am able to use my power to take my tiny, uplifting steps.

    These add to my powerful foundation of peace.

    I engage in uplifting conversation.

    I refer to my inner power to maintain my poise.

    I use my power to refute fear and dread by remembering that we all have access to what is within us.

    We are guided by clarity as we maintain our peace.

    We feel our powerful wholeness instead of being fragmented by doubts.

    We cannot be divided from the peace we know to be true in the Infinite.

    We have unlimited resources through our relationship to the Infinite within us.

    We are able to respond to our inner Guidance instead of reacting to noisy disturbances.

    We are most powerful when we reflect on what is coming to us from within.

    This maintains us in  a consistently powerful stance.

  • Joy in everything

     A Year Of Joy #13 – Joy in everything

    There is joy in everything.

    There is beauty and harmony and balance in every part of earth’s creation.

    There is joy, even in adversity, as we learn how to meet it and transform it.

    We build on all the tiny steps we take.

    We build toward joy.

    We are meant to live in joy.

    We are given the tools and ability to make the transformation when we need it.

    This may happen quite often until we become good at it.

    It is a wonderful skill to be able to build joy, to be able to create it.

    I create joy for myself by discovering what I love to do and then doing it.

    I add joy to my life bit by bit.

    I create more joyful experiences for myself.

    I create a standard of joy for myself.

    I find new ways to express joy.

    I love to see my joy expand and overflow into the lives of others.

    When I feel joy draining away from me, I pause.

    I rest.

    I withdraw to a peaceful place within.

    I take the time to refill my joy.

    I value the opportunity to renew myself and my joy.

    There is value in being quietly reflective.

    There is joy in quietude.

    Quiet action is joyful.

    Joy draws companions of like mind.

    Joy loves to be shared.

    We can increase our joy and share it.

  • From Within, All is Well

    Pebbles of Peace Pathway 4.24 – From Within, All is Well

    The only way to find lasting peace is to find it within.

    Even with this goal, we have to remind ourselves over and over again to return to our safe haven.

    From within, in deep peace, we can listen for and find solutions.

    I have had simple solutions come to me, like remembering where a lost item is, or more complex solutions, like finding a new job, or a new house.

    When I truly expand my thought from within, ideas come to me for larger enterprises, along with each next step when I am ready to listen even more deeply.

    All the steps, all the solutions come from the desire to serve in such a way as to uplift society and civilization.

    It may seem like a ridiculous and preposterous desire to uplift society and civilization, but each one of us, doing our part, adds either to uplifting or depressing our own situation and therefore the larger state of the world.

    When our work comes from the deep peace within, it is truly pure.

    This Universal Source is deep within each of us.

    It is unlimited and available in every situation.

    We can return to it over and over again, and it is always refreshed.

    We have access to an unlimited supply of very relevant ideas which always act in such a way as to bless and uplift society and civilization.

    Because we are not dealing with outside factors when we go within, our solutions are not partisan or destructive in any way.

    From within, all is well.

    We can rely on it and others can as well.
