Release

I release; I am in the flow of life. 

We use the POWER of ELIMNATION to release, let go, and renounce. All living things release in one way or another; Without release, there is no life.

Just as I would not fill my closet with clothes that no longer fit, I do not fill my life with beliefs and ideas that no longer reflect who I am and who I’m becoming.

Releasing is also a powerful way to live my faith. I trust I am moving in the right direction. I release items from my past with ease, grace and gratitude.

Release creates space in my life for new things. It is my way of remaining open to possibility, welcoming new opportunities, and keeping myself in the flow of life. Release is an important aspect of my spiritual practice.

I release; I am in the flow of life.

Comfort

I find comfort in loving memories.

There may be days or even weeks on the calendar when I find myself mysteriously feeling melancholy or blue, only to realize the anniversary of someone or something I have loved and lost is approaching. Even when I don’t realize it outright, a part of me remembers and responds. As I honor my feelings, I honor the people and places that have helped me evolve and from whom I have learned.

Welcoming my feelings brings deep and abiding comfort. I carry those people and places I love in my mind, heart, and the things I do. I keep their memory alive in me. Gradually, I find smiles within the sadness. Revisiting treasured memories reveals the love within the loss. The awareness of my DIVINITY is found within each moment. I find comfort through my grateful heart.

I find comfort in loving memories.

Secure

Because of my DIVINITY, I am deeply secure.

There is only one POWER and one PRESENCE in the universe and in my life. GOD is PRINCIPLE consisting of OMNIPOTENCE, OMNISCIENCE, OMNIPRESENCE, and so much more. GOD, PRINCIPLE, is my innate DIVINITY.

As I realize these TRUTHS in my heart, I feel calm and secure. The circumstances of the world and the people around me have no lasting impact on me. My DIVINITY is unchanging, timeless, and unending. Therefore, my DIVINITY is more enduring than anything I may face. No one, no thing, no situation or event has any power over my consciousness.

I can and do access POWER and PRESENCE at any time. As I pray, I assert DIVINE STRENGTH and POWER are mine. In renewed faith, I use these DIVINE POWERS and OTHERS to move beyond that which may scare or intimidate me.

Because of my DIVINITY, I am deeply secure.

Mother’s Day!

I am grateful for and bless all mothers.

There is nothing quite like a mother’s love, so nurturing, caring, and warm.

Today I bless all the women in my life who express this love in all they do. Whether it’s my biological mother who raised me or any of the other women who so generously shared a motherly love with me. I have felt their care through their tender touch and encouraging words. Over the years, I have grown strong and confident under their kind direction, re-direction, and have relied upon their wisdom.

Mothers express their DIVINITY using their humanity to share loving words and caring hands. They effortlessly express motherly love. I bless and am grateful for them in my life. I remember they are 100% DIVINE and 100% human as they have shared themselves so generously with me.

I am grateful for and bless all mothers.

Free!

I synchronize my humanity with my DIVINITY; I am free.

When I think of freedom, I imagine a bird in flight, soaring above the earth. As the bird glides, it moves through the air instinctively overcoming the force of gravity. The same is true when it flaps its wings, moving upward and forward.

Likewise, I open my mind and heart and perceive the freeing presence of my DIVINITY. I wisely use the PRINCIPLES that make up my DIVINITY to be powerful and peaceful. As I do, I overcome stifling feelings of stress or doubt. In my humanity I trust my DIVINITY as I move forward and upward with renewed purpose and confidence.

Just as a bird overcomes gravity to fly with purpose, in my humanity I overcome the challenges and circumstances of my life. I find my purpose and live more consciously when synchronized with my DIVINITY.

I synchronize my humanity with my DIVINITY; I am free.

Simplicity

I pause to appreciate life’s simplest pleasures.

Today I am grateful and feel appreciation for the simplest pleasures that I respond to with a smile followed by a warm feeling in my heart. A simple hug from a friend, a cuddle from a grandchild, or stroking the soft fur of a beloved pet fills my awareness with love and joy.

The sudden lift I give myself when seeing a favorite person’s name in my inbox or the thrill of spotting a rainbow after a cleansing rain are catalysts toward lasting happiness in my heart.

These things and more remind me that true contentment is found in life’s smallest moments and the everyday treasures that comprise daily life that remind me of my DIVINITY.

I focus on these simple things and grow in gratitude for my life’s many pleasures.

Praying with Others

My prayer sets in motion GOD-QUALITIES in your life and mine.

I am honored whenever someone asks me to pray. Whatever the prayer request, my responsibility is always the same: recognizing that all QUALITIES of GOD are fully present in everyone regardless of circumstance. These “GOD-QUALITIES are potential forces waiting to be set in motion through the thinking-feeling functions of our consciousness” (adapted from Charles Fillmore’s Atom-Smashing Power of Mind, p. 93).

When asked to pray for healing, I release all thoughts and feelings of illness as I affirm total well-being. I know DIVINE LIFE and INTELLIGENCE are active in every cell.

When asked to pray for abundance, I give no power or importance to thoughts and feelings of lack. I set in motion the PRINCIPLES of ABUNDANCE, DISCERNMENT, UNDERSTANDING and LOVE as active forces in the person with whom I am praying. They make wise prospering choices.  

My prayer sets in motion GOD-QUALITIES in your life and mine.

World Peace

I live my vision for a peaceful world.

To bring about peace in the world, I focus my attention to my first reaction when I feel I have been treated unjustly. I do not deny my feelings, but neither do I allow anger, envy, or other negative feelings to take control of my response. I feel my feelings as I remain committed to living the TRUTH I know.

Regardless of behavior, every person is fully DIVINE expressing their humanity from their DIVINTY. I draw upon my DIVINE FACULTIES of LOVE, FAITH, STRENGTH and the PRINCIPLE of PEACE to guide my next steps. No matter how another responds, I remain ever centered in my inherent DIVINITY.

My efforts make a difference. Peace between individuals creates peace within families, in communities, and among the nations of the world.

I live my vision for a peaceful world.

Rise Up/ Easter

I rise up using the POWER of CHRIST, my DIVINITY.

I resurrect myself into a brimming new life. I have rolled away the stones of defeat and limitation. I am free and unlimited.

Throughout my Lenten journey, I heeded the call from deep within to recognize the stones in my consciousness. I removed them and awakened more fully to the INFINITE POTENTIAL within me.

I now rejoice in the shimmering light of awareness with an open, joyful heart. My faith is strong, and I am ablaze with my SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING. I rejoice that the eternal, in dwelling PRINCIPLE of LIFE is permeating my mind, heart, and body.

Hope never dies. Jesus transcended death and demonstrated life is eternal. With a grateful heart, I rise up and claim the PRINIPLE of LIFE anew. It’s a new dawn, a new day, a new beginning. I have risen in consciousness.

I rise up using the POWER of CHRIST, my DIVINITY.

Palm Sunday

I celebrate my DIVINITY.

Just as the crowd welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem with a spirit of celebration, I engage that same energy today for Palm Sunday. I do this by opening my heart and mind to the DIVINITY that is within me and others whom I meet each day.

My DIVINITY is identical to the DIVINITY in everyone. While in our humanity, we are wondrously distinct.

This welcoming attitude changes me at depth.  Making the commitment to behold the DIVINE in myself and each person I meet, I am symbolically placing palm branches before them, greeting them as Jesus was greeted. 

This celebration of the DIVINE in everyone lays a path of spiritual freedom.  From perfect peace within, I shout “Hosanna!” as my jubilant soul celebrates. 

I celebrate my DIVINITY.

(Note – My gratitude goes to Rev. Kelly Isola for her collaboration this week!)
