  • Joy-filled day

     A Year Of Joy #2 – Joy-filled day

    My joy-filled day begins as I go to bed the night before.

    I write my list of joyful moments and events and tiny steps into my “A Year of Joy” Weekly Journal.

    I start my day with expectancy of joy.

    I listen for inspired and uplifting ideas before I get out of bed.

    I give gratitude that I am being led to align myself with my highest values throughout my day.

    I willingly do excellent work.

    I see myself and my colleagues in our highest light.

    I participate in uplfiting conversation.

    I take my deep breath of peace whenever I feel myself becoming agitated.

    I wrap myself in a cocoon of peace.

    I find my joy.

    I know that I am loved, cherished and adored.

    I notice moments where I can be kind and generous toward others.

    I find my flow.

    I create peace in my work.

    I let my peace expand to include my team.

    Together we find the best solutions and work harmoniously to implement them.

    We recognize each other’s strengths and the value of our work together.

    We value the purpose and benefits of our project.

    We let others know we value them and their contribution to the project.

    I spend a moment in quiet as I contemplate the next step.

    I feel my connection to Spirit.

    I know that I am fulfilling my purpose where I am right now.

    I know that I will always be moved in the direction of my highest purpose and capacity.

    That fills me with joy.

  • Hidden Forces

    Pebbles of Peace Pathways 4.13 –

    Hidden Forces

    We are discovering the hidden forces within us.

    We are discovering that they have been there all along.

    We have been feeling their influence through intuition and inspiration for a long time.

    Through becoming aware of a deep quiet place within each of us, we are able to listen consciously for guidance from within.

    More and more of us are discovering this place of calm and guidance.

    Some are finding it through meditation.

    Some are finding it through the influence of spiritual writers.

    Some are just noticing the little nudges that come to thought.

    We each receive our own direction and guidance and inspiration.

    We come to some of the same conclusions and find ourselves in the association of others of like mind.

    We are building up to a tipping point where some kind of action or even thought-action will guide the whole planet in its compassion to provide for and take care of all of us.

    Since the planet has been doing this always, we, ourselves, are the ones who are joining our awareness with that of the planet.

    It will become unthinkable to consider some people more important than other people.

    It will become necessary to do all we can to take care of every one of us.

    Such is the great guidance of love and compassion that is coming to more and more people all over the planet.

  • I am willing to do the work I am given and to experience its rewards.

    Life-Path Story Mazes – #52 I am willing to do the work I am given and to experience its rewards.

    I have been given new work to do.

    It has nothing to do with my training.

    It has to do with being inspired.

    It comes from being moved out of depression and anxiety and hopelessness and despair.

    It comes from finding a new footing in a Universe Which Loves Me.

    I have discovered I am loved and cherished and adored.

    This is an actual fact.

    Since it is true about me, it is true about you, because you also live in a Universe Which Loves You.

    You move into this Universe as you listen within and take the tiny steps.

    You experience more order and you release confusion.

    You no longer chase after someone else’s way of doing things.

    You have sure and certain direction from within.

    You live a life of substance and conviction.

    You are not distracted by the commotion and chaos around you.

    You become a center of calm and peace.

    It is noticeable to those who are searching for it.

    They hear you and see you.

    They feel the impulsion to join you.

    They feel the desire to put their feet on firmer ground.

    They are willing to learn to listen within and to take the tiny steps.

    They are willing to join together in cooperation to share this practice and message.

    This is my life’s work.

    Let us join together to share inspiration and peace.

    Let us create a life of well-being for all.

  • My Happy Energy Dissolves Unhappiness

    Pebbles of Peace Pathway 4.13 –
    My Happy Energy Dissolves Unhappiness

    My happy energy dissolves unhappiness and the places it resides in me.

    If I am feeling ill or unsettled in any part of my life or body, I know that a dose of authentic happiness will revive me.

    To make it a habit, I now cultivate happiness energy.

    The strength of overcoming hidden negative influences naturally leads to the cultivation of positive and happy ones.

    I cultivate or invent happy memories.

    I make them up or create imaginary positive events and place myself in a prominent place in them.

    It’s healthier and way more fun than reviewing old negative settings.

    I know that my divinity and infinity have access to all the spiritual resources I could ever need.

    This is a fun way to play with them.

    Another great game is following up on intuitions.

    In a happy frame of mind, I see them everywhere.

    Just doing one little thing in the direction of an intuition rewards me for listening to it.

    I am so happy and proud of myself.

    I took a step in a positive direction.

    I consciously cultivated it and made a move toward it.

    That lightens my load and helps me increase my energy of happiness.

    Overcoming such an old and heavy background makes me appreciate all the tools and techniques I can discover for myself, as well as the excellent directives by truly inspired writers.

  • I embrace the messages which tell me I am loved, cherished and adored along my life-path.

    Life-Path/Story-Maze #51 – I embrace the messages which tell me I am loved, cherished and adored along my life-path.

    The messages which tell me I am loved, cherished and adored come from the Universe of infinite possibilities.

    They counteract any negative messages.

    These messges inspire the tiny steps which move me into a life of abundance and prosperity.

    The effect these messages have had in my life impel me to share them.

    It is possible for all of us to feel loved and cherished and adored.

    When we listen within and take the tiny steps consistently, they lead us into a more secure life.

    Our more secure life allows us to share the possibilities through cooperation.

    We are led to do uplifting community projects.

    We are led to improve the skills of those around us.

    We are inspired to take a stand for the untapped talents within all community members.

    Our spirit of cooperation leads us to become a leader.

    As we bear witness to the power of the Infinite in our own life, it is a call to action for so many others.

    As we move out of negativity through the power of listening within and taking tiny steps, we see its’ effects around us.

    We see its’ effects in the inspiration we create in the lives of many more.

    Being loved and cherished and adored is a reality.

    It became a possibility when I questioned the direction my life was going.

    That question opened me up to a new Universe.

    This new Universe had a different message for me.

    A compassionate message.

    A message which gave me hope.

    A message which continued manifesting itself until I moved myself into a different way of living.

    There is a way to live in the Universe Who Loves Us.

    When we listen within and take our tiny steps, it becomes  inevitable.
