Through God I Have Inner Peace

I am one with Divine Presence. I am at peace. 

When I see rain softly falling on my window and hear thunder in the distance, I feel a connection with something greater than myself.  The air is being cleansed and the ground and other animals quench their thirst and plants are nourished.  I am content knowing that each drop of water has a purpose.

I can remember in 1998 the tornado came through.  It was a horrible storm but the next morning the sky was clear, blue and beautiful.  It was an awesome day.  The earth is designed to replenish itself no matter what man does to destroy it.

I take a breath and become aware of the activity of Spirit in each element of nature.  As I sense its beauty and symmetry, a feeling of inner peace fills me.

I love going to the beach and sitting watching the waves come in and out on  the shore. I know that this is a creation of God.  Not man made.  Waterfall's are also beautiful creation of God's magnificence.

I go within to reconnect with Divine Presence; I experience a feeling of spiritual balance, a calm peace in my soul.

Doing Gods will is where Peace is for me. If I am anxious, or heavy hearted I now I can stop what I am doing and invite God in to restore peace.

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways.  The Lord be with all of you.  2 Thessalonians  3:16

Trusting in God

I place my trust in God.

A Unity author wrote these practical words of wisdom:  "As your unity with God grows, your immunity to fear grows as well."  God is always with me. If there are times when I am fearful, I can quiet my concerns by focusing on divine love and power.  I remember I am always cared for, provided for and protected.  No matter where I am or what I am experiencing.  God is here.

God is always with me. All I need to do is invite him in.  he is always in the solution.

I know this truth for my loved ones. As well visualizing them protected and guided always whether at home, at school, at work or taveling across the globe, they are in God's care.  I place my trust in God and see them happy, healthy and enjoying life.

I have  wonderful friends and family.  They are positive an uplifting.  The  ones who aren't are not in my life. Some have been totally removed.  I am so blessed all because I invite God into my life.

You who live in the shelter of the Most High will say to the Lord, "My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.. Psalm 91:1,2

World Peace

As I know peace within my heart, peace prevails in my world.

I love the connection and clarity I found with God.  I am so glad to be growing spiritually day by day.  I am headed to a spiritual retreat that will fill me up and empower me to be the best person I can be.  Peace begins with me.

Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me.  These words remind me of where to begin when I pray for wold peace--within myself.

Not much of anything takes me away from peace.  I am almost always at peace except when I am driving.  I am remembering to stop and accept the situation as being in my best interest.

When I pray, I am making a difference.  My thoughts and prayers have the power to affect me and those around me in positive ways.  As I affirm peace, I feel peaceful in mind and heart and I express that peace to others.  MY expressions of peace create a chain reaction that travels from one person to another, opening minds and hearts to the blessing of love, compassion and understanding--attitudes that help create peace in the world.

What energy I put out is what comes back to me.  If it is negative, I get negative.  If it is positive I get positive .  I can choose peace at anytime.  All I need do is ask.

Today I do my part in establishing world peace by holding positive thoughts and expressing the indwelling peace of God.

The old Donya did not know peace. Just chaos.  If I talk about some person, place or thing while in chaos I am spreading ego's will.  I always want to do God's will.

As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world  John 9:5

Let It Shine

I let my Divine light shine


Where there is light there can be no darkness.

Is shyness, self-criticism or any other personality trait is interfering with my enjoyment of life, it may be that certain characteristics no longer serve me.  I am free to adopt a new way of being.  To accomplish this, I begin by noticing qualities in others that I admire and wish to adopt.  I observe anothor's light and magnetism. I look for someone who models self-acceptance and confidence.  I appreciated how they carry themselves with this beautiful presence.

I have always been told "stick with the winners."  I find spiritual people to hang with.  I practice being truthful and making integrous decisions.  this makes me a better friend, coworker and family member.

Because these are qualities I admire, they are also qualities found within me.  By recognizing my inherent value, I begin to let my light shine bigger and brighter.  I express the indwelling Spirit in unique and beautiful ways.

Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and vive glory to your Father in heaven  Matthew 5:16

God Pilots This Plane

I let Divine Love guide my thoughts, words and actions.

God is my pilot. I only get off course when I try to take the wheel. Today I turn my will over to you to guide me every moment I breathe.

I may feel either excited or apprehensive about upcoming events.  Whether I am hosting a party myself or attending a family, or work gathering, I wish to remain peaceful, centerd and joy filled.

I get excited and apprehensive in my everyday life.  Throughout the day I stop and ask God to guide me so I do his will.  His will always flows smoothly and effortlessly and I will always have the tools I need to do my part.

Letting go and letting God is how I release any anxious feelings I may have.  As I let go of concern and let Divine Love guide my thoughts, words and actions, I experience the presence of God in my activities and relationships.

Today I am anxious about passing out my resume asking for more challenges. I want to use more of my skills and upgrade my position. I know God only wants the best for me and will open the best door.  If it is in  my best interest all will flow smoothly.  I will never be given more than I can handle or learn to handle.

I participate joyfully in all gatherings because I am letting God express fully through me.  My expectations and attitude are positive as I share love, appreciation and joy with others.

My only job is to suit up and show up and give and receive unconditional love.

For the sake of my relatives and friends I will say " Peace be within you."  Psalm 122:8

Faith In God

I have faith in God and I am blessed.

Many words come to mind as I try to define faith.  Faith is a belief, a feeling, an impetus or an insight.  When I have faith, I believe.  I believe that I am a spiritual being, that I am never alone, never separated from God.  In faith I feel divinely protected and directed.  I am led by Spirit along every step of the my life's journey.

Faith is when I practice staying in the moment waiting for directions from God.  The my job is to suit up and show up.  He is always holding my hand and walks with me through every solution.

When I have faith I am inspired and energized.  I experience an impulse to do more and be more--to spread my spiritual wings and fly.  Ideas flow freely and easily, unhampered by fear or anxiety.

Having a connection with God is sure a great feeling. No matter how hard something may seem I always have God to get me through.

My faith in God transforms my life--mentally, physically and spiritually.  Through my faith I am blessed beyond measure.

All it takes is faith the size of a mustard seed.

Let us approach with a true heart in full assurance of faith. Hebrews 10:22

Creating World Peace

The world awakens to peace--one person at a time.  Today I choose peace.

Today I am peaceful knowing I am exactly where I am suppose to be.  I am at a job I love, have two jobs that pay my bills and five me extra money to do things with.  I have an abundance of friends and family.  The real test is to be at peace when turbulent times hit.  This is when I truly practice peace through my faith.

World peace begins with me.  My peaceful presence affects the peace in my family.  The peace in my family affects the peace in my neighborhood.  The peace in my neighborhood affects the peace of my community.  And on it goes--until peace unites our world.

We are all connected through Christs energy.  this is where we are all the same. Many people are not conscious of this connection and choose to live turbulent lives through ego.  They still have Christ within them and only need to invite him into their daily lives.

I choose peace with every decision I make.  When I come to a crossroads, I make the peaceful choice.  When I make decisions with Spirit--with a desire for peace--I fell grounded and secure.  I move confidently forward with a peaceful heart.

I practice choosing peace in all my decisions.  I don't argue a point if someone else is in debate mode.  I don't say things that are hurtful for others.  I calm myself down as soon as i realize what I am doing.  If I send out peaceful positive energy I will receive the same.

As a proactive peacemaker, I never wait for others to determine when it is time to be peaceful.  The light of peace begins with me.

We can always be in peace even when it feels like the house is falling down all around me as long as I invite God into the moment.

Mark the blameless and behold upright, for their is posterity for the peaceable.  Psalm 37:37

The Perfection Of God

I am a joyful expression of Spirit.  I was created in joy.  At the moment of my creation, the Universe sang a new song and I am that joyous refrain. Each of us is a unique expression of one Spirit, a delightfully different outpouring of God's creativity.

I was born in perfection.  That perfection is still within me and this is where I connect wit God.  I also learned I have an ego and this is of the world, it is my humaness.

I begin the day in prayer, connection with the pur joy of my being.  During the day, joy bubbles up through me in laughter, compassion, gratitude and a sense of well being.  I share my joy for I know that Spirit has chosen me to be a joyful presence int he world.  Joy is my testimony of the living, loving Christ Presence in my life.

The only request God has of me is the see the Christ in everyone.  Offer unconditional love. This is who God is.  This is where we are all one.

However the day unfolds, at night I turn once more in prayer and thank God for the opportunities to be and experience joy. 

My  job is to stay in the moment and to give and receive love from every person, place or thing put on my path.

My heart and my flesh sing for joy o the living God Psalm 84:2

Clarity Through God

My mind is clear, my heart is open, I am at peace.

I love being at peace.  Everything is great. The old ego says "Watch out, something bad is going to happen right around the corner.

When I sense that my thoughts are turbulent and unfocused, I am best served by closing my eyes and taking a few moments to catch my breath.  With each deep breath, my thoughts begin to clear.  I soak in the love and peace of God.  I take in this moment of serenity.  As my mind stills and calms, I ask for guidance and direction, and I experience the fog lifting.

All I need to do to get peace is to invite God into my every breathing moment.  No matter if it feels like the house is falling down all around me thru God I can always find peace.

With a clear mind and heart I make myself available to divine guidance.  I no longer strain to find the answers, but rather allow them to surface in my mind and heart.  What I need to know comes clearly into my awareness.  Peace settles in and wisdom is revealed. I know what direction to take.

Even when I am not meditating or praying God gets instructions to me through other channels.  People, places and things. Meditating and being still after I pray and listen is God's desired way to connect.

Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his presence continually -- 1 Chronicles 16:11

Staying in Peace

Centered in Spirit, I am free.

In the midst of a health challenge or a troubled relationship, I may feel limited, burdened or out of control.  These situations however, give me a chance to consider another way.

So many times my fear is caused by "feeling out of control." Truth of the matter is I never have control. Either God or Ego is working through me. Ego chooses from humanness.  My human thinking always comes from fear. Ego lives from fear. It does not know the bigger picture, and it does not embrace change.  God comes from total love and is always there to hold my hand no matter what I am going through.  I can always choose peace.

When I remain centered in Truth, the love of Spirit flows through me, healing my body easing my mind, and quieting my heart.  I do not focus on "can't," "shouldn't,"  or "won't." Through the lens of Truth, I see possibilities; limitations fall away.

God is all knowing of my abilities.  He never give me anything that he wouldn't hold my  hand through. All I need do is to invite him in at all times.

What I previously viewed as lack or impossibility no longer seems so.  I am free to make choices and decisions that support my highest good.  Joy fills my soul and blesses my heart.

When God is holding my hand I can have peace even if it feels like the house is falling down all around me.  When I get out of my limited perception and see God's step by step plan I have peace and joy again.  I will always have the right outcome.

You were called to freedom, brothers and sisters.  Galatians 5:13

Seek Positive Connections

Oceans of spiritual substance flow into my mind and I see prosperity everywhere.

God wants only the best for us and there is always a door or window I can open no matter how challenging a situation may appear.

Knowing that the very substance of God Mind underlies every good thought, I keep my mind open and receptive to divine ideas. No thought or appearance of lack can linger where God is recognized as supply.  Therefore I keep my thoughts uplifted.

What I focus on expands. I can focus from my God source or from ego.

I realize that I cannot help a single soul by seeing a world of suffering from injustice, cruelty and lack.  therefor I see with the eye of faith the good that God provides.  By faith I see plenty and prosperity in ever circumstance.  I see hearts, homes and nations enriched and blessed by the presence of God.

God is the loving side of my dual self.  When I am in the moment and doing his will I am blessed and I can pass that gift on to others.

I have faith in God as my support and supply.  As a child of God, I am rich--rich in consciousness, active in service, sustained in all goodness substance and satisfaction.

I practice direct consciousness with God when I speak at spiritual meetings, journal, talk to God, be a spiritual mentor to others.

God, our God, has blessed us.  Psalm 67:6

Building Relationships

I am blessed by the people in my life.

I am very blessed to have an abundance of friends and family in my life.  I guess this happened because I am a good friend and a good family member.

I interact with many people each day, from friends, family and co-workers to sales people, fellow drivers and passersby.  While some relationships may not seem especially significant, they provide opportunities for me to positively impact the lives of others.

I am a very positive person and smile, speak and wave to passersby. I am not so good at driving. I get irritated and leave peace.  I now catch myself and say something like "Donya, calm down.  There is a reason this person is in front of you !!"You could be in an accident if you were not being held back by this person.  Then I feel the peace start to return.  I am very competitive and I am learning to be competitive with myself and not others.

I might be the only one to show another person kindness and consideration today.  A simple caring gesture or acknowledgment can bring light to their day.  I choose my words carefully and let my connection with others be a blessing in their lives and mine.  We all share this life experience together.

When I am asking for God's will to be done I am sharing the right thing to the right person.  This is my job and we both grow when I remember to invite God in.

Through my relationship with others I also nurture my relationship with God. Because God is in all I choose to see god in all people.

I try my favorite thought. The Christ in me sees the Christ in you. This is where we are alike.  When I remember to practice this one sentence I am always doing God's will.

So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all -- Galatians 6:10

Strength Thru God

Aligned with divine mind.

The mind of God is the composite of all good thoughts.  I am strengthened as I align my thoughts with Divine Mind.  I begin with a time of prayer, acknowledging that God and I are one.  I accept that all the strength I need is already withing me.

God holds my hand and walks with me through every step of my human life.  He never leaves me and I am connected to him through my soul.

If I notice an area of my life that does not appear to be working, I pause to examine my thoughts.  Do they reflect the truth of God in me?  Am I centered in Divine Presence?  Gently correcting my misalignment I feel the strength of God surge through me once more.

When door shut and I am banging my head up against the wall I am living from ego.  Ego fears losing something or not getting something I think I can' live without.  I judge myself about the chaos at home. If I would forgive the chaos I will stop getting a knot in my stomach and I can change it.  I could practice 15 minutes on a regular basis and the chaos will be gone.

In faith, my mind is lifted to the realm of Divine Mind.  From here I receive strength.  It may come in the form of mental, physical and spiritual strength, and I rely on it to fill every need.

When I am not doing God's will I am going blind.  My humanness does not know the bigger picture.  Only from my connection with God do I make right choices.  Sometimes I am not sure if I am doing God's will or not.  I only have to be  patient and find the open door.  then I need the courage to walk thru the unknown.  That takes all the faith I can muster up sometimes.  I always know God is holding my hand.

In quietness and in trust shall be your strength - Isaiah 30:15

Success through God

With Spirit as my guide I am successful.

True success involves joy in my work, a sense of achievement and material prosperity.  If I wish to succeed or advance in my work, I begin today to let Spirit guide my steps.

God opens doors for me every step of the way.  After I lost my job I only needed to borrow $1000 and paid it back withing 4 months. God sent me work ever since I gave up the unemployment mentality. Part time worked turned into full time.  At my other job I could set my own hours.  At the new job i work from 7:00-4:00. Love the hours. I have the money to pay my bills, buy healthy food, have a trainer, and buy things I want or take vacations. I spiritually connect with God on a daily basis. Life is great and getting better all the time.

I bless the work I am doing and give thanks for it. I bless my colleagues and customers by cooperating willingly and lovingly.  I turn often to the spirit of God within for wisdom in using my talents and developing my untapped abilities.

I am full of gifts God has given me.  My job is to suit up and show up when he puts opportunities in front of me.

If I feel that some person or condition is impending my progress, I release this thought from my mind and affirm, as an expression of God, that nothing can stand in my way.  Working with Spirit brings me opportunities, new power to achieve and new happiness in my work.

My work is more than just my job. God is teaching me about unconditional love.  It is my job to share this with the people, places, and things he puts in my life.

You shall be successful. Joshua 1:8

Guidance

I am conscious of divine direction and follow it's guidance.

I know to do God's will I simply need to stay in the moment, look for the opportunities he puts in front of me and love unconditionally.

Many thoughts float across my mind each day I may have difficulty discerning what is right for me to do in any particular situation.  Stepping aside for a moment of silence, I rest my awareness on the wisdom of my soul.

God connect through my soul. If I am not living from there I will miss his will for me.  I would love to say I do this regularly but I don't.  When I recognize I have left this place I immediately return and ask for clarity to do his will.

In the silence, the chatter of my thoughts begins to fade.  Error thoughts have no power.  In the silence there is clarity and I am conscious of divine direction, revealing the next step for me to take.

I don't know why I won't meditate more often and get still.  I know this is a direct connection to God.  I promised myself I would start in 2011.  It is the end of February and I have not kept my promise.

Whether the path ahead appears easy or challenging I trust everything needed has been and will be provided.  I walk a spiritual path of unfolding good and in faith I am guided each step of the way.

God never gives me an opportunity that he will not always be there for me.  With God s my guide I will always get through life's ups and downs.  I can now do this with moments of peace.  I am working on walking through situations from peace. That is sometimes a big order.

When you turn to your right or when you turn to the left, your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it." Isaiah 30:21

Comfort

I am comforted by the awareness of God's presence.

Like the comfort I feel from the warmth of a fire on a cold winter day, I feel comfort in allowing the peace and love of God to calm and comfort me.  There is but one presence, one power and one love and that love lives in me.  Life situations are temporary.  The love of God is eternal.

I am very fortunate to have found my connection with God.  I know I am never alone and when I get scared or worried all I need do is pray.  " Surround me God, I know you are there."

I see the love of God revealed in myriad ways.  I see it in nature as earth recovers and regenerates after a natural disaster.  I find it revealed through the inspiration of sacred writing, poetry and song. I witness it in everyday acts of kindness and compassion.

When the hurricane hit Duluth in 1998 the morning after was a beautiful crisp day.  The sky was as blue as the pictures on puzzles.  The temperature of the air was moist and fresh.  It was amazing how beautiful it was even though there was so much destruction.  God was in the solution. Everyone around me lived.  I love to read and journal.  God comes through my mind to my pen and on to the paper.  I always try to smile when I meet someone or someone passes me.  You never know when you can change someones day and make it better with a smile.

No matter what I am facing today, I am forever sustained by the love of God.

God always has my back.  No matter what problems I create for myself. He will hold my hand while I walk through the challenge

Even though I walk through the darkest valley I fear no evil; for you are with me - Psalm 23:4

Gentleness

I treat myself with gentleness.

I try to remember to take good care of myself but sometimes I work to hard and don't say no when I need to have time to rest.

A new born baby needs gentle and tender care of a soft hug, a soothing touch, a cozy blanket.  A crying baby calms as his needs are met.  As a child of God I treat myself gently and tenderly. If I feel overwhelmed or anxious, I see myself as a tiny newborn or an innocent child, and I gently ask, "What do I need?"

Many things bring me peace.  Relaxation and not beating myself up over something I did or didn't do. I can meditate, journal, call a spiritual mentor or just take a nap and rest.

Perhaps I need a short break, something to eat or a catnap.  I may need a walk outside to stretch my legs, a conversation with a friend, or a few moments in the silence where I can feel God's gentle presence enfolding me.

My job is to stay in the moment.  Not try to fix tomorrow or change my past. The opportunities are in the present moment.  I will miss them if I stray from this moment.

Taking tome to be gently with myself shows that I value myself. I am a precious child of God worthy of love and care.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gently and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  Matthew 11:29

Vitality

I am well, nourished, healthy and filled with energy.

I am so grateful I have the money to work out. I also buy healthy food to fuel my body.  Thank you God for being in my solution.

I am created in the image of wholeness, strength and vitality, in the image of God.  This is the truth of my being, the blueprint of perfection at the core of me.  I consciously focus my thoughts, words and actions on the Truth and align myself with my true potential.

I was a soul before I was a body. This part of me is unconditional love.  This is where I am created in God's likeness.  When I live my life from this place I am living God's will for me.  Giving and receiving unconditional love.  To accomplish this I must stay in the moment.

Visualising myself moving freely and easily I praise my body and show it respect and appreciation.  Living from a consciousness of well-being and wholeness, I am continually in the flow of divine, life sustaining energy.  I am forever grateful for abundant life, health and guidance in the care of my body. I thank God for creating me to thrive and to flourish.

I love the fact that my bodies cells  replace themselves. Univera helps this and I will soon be assisting and participating in a healthier new me.  I can't wait to hear from Dick Humphrey.  This is going to start a new journey.  I can't wait to build a healthy dynasty.

The Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your needs in parched places...and you shall be like a watered garden.  Isaiah 58:11

Staying In This Moment

I am living an abundant life now!

My life is very abundant in every way.  I am growing healthy, spiritually and financially.  I know God only wants the best for me and he has goals much more abundant than I think I deserve.

Living full in the present moment, I make adjustments, changes and choices that enrich my life and prepare me for success.  I am stress free as I ease through my day, grateful for every experience and the blessing it holds.

As I do God's will I grow spiritually and make right choices in the here and now. My future is so bright I 've gotta wear shades.  When I set a goal and follow through the results show up.  I am ready for a beautiful new home decorated just like I want it to be.  It is big enough for Kelly, Kurt and the babies to stay over.  I am blessed.

Each moment that I am fully present to the spirit of God is a moment when I am conscious of the ways in which I express my highest potential.  I am learning from the Creator and realizing my dreams.

Soon I will financially be able to pay off debt from the past. All of it.  I will also be able to help family and friends to live a more comfortable life. I will start my Univera business and build another empire. This time it will come from unconditional love. I will be able to help others who normally could not start their own business. Life is good today.

Living in the now I am not inhibited by time.  I let my present experiences flow as if they were taking me on a journey.  Every turn offers me another amazing perspective on abundant living.

Life is not a race, it is a journey.  Slow down,stay in the moment, and enjoy the ride. My motto for this year.

See now is the acceptable time; see, now is the day of salvation.  2 Corinthians 6:2

Loving My Community

I behold the Christs presence in all people.

An age-old proverb reminds us that, "it takes a village to raise a child."  With love and encouragement from members of the whole community, a child succeeds and thrives.

We have lost contact with the village for people today in my part of the world.  Most of us don't even know the last name of the neighbors.  As we read in motivational material, smile at someone today.  Pay it forward.

So it is in my spiritual community.  As I honor and support he people around me and love my neighbor as myself, I help create a space for all people to realize their Christ potential.  My neighbor is not just the person who lives next door, but everyone in the world.   I behold the Christ presence in each person and open my heart through compassion and understanding when I see through the eyes of love.  I help others and our world be all they can be.

Yesterday when I was walking a gentlemen caught eye contact with me and I said hello.  I try to be complimentary to all the people in my office on the phone or wherever I am.  We are all God's children and i am to extend unconditional love to them all.

For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment "You shall love your neighbor as yourself " Galatians 5:14

Designing My Life With God

I design my life in cooperation with the Divine

What do I truly love to do?  What makes my spirit soar? Maybe it's dancing, singing or playing the guitar.  Perhaps its drawing, painting or woodworking.  Whatever the activity, I set the intention to add it to my daily or weekly routine.

Reading, hanging with friends or family, the beach, mentoring women, practice spirituality, journaling and so many other things feed my soul.  I can't wait until I can live on the beach full time.  That is my ultimate goal..

Creative expression lifts my spirits and energizes my life.  As I allow my creativity to shine I have a renewed zest for life.  My mind and body are recharged and fully engaged as I tune into the creative power of Spirit.  I let this power radiate through me in new ways.

I am always in peace and joy when I let God's energy flow throughout me.  It is a positive unconditional love and is 10X's more powerful than negative judgment.

I enjoy rich and abundant living as I open to the continual flow of divine ideas that spring forth from within me.

He has filled him with divine spirit, with skill, intelligence and knowledge in every kind of craft.  Exodus 35:31

I Believe

There in only One Power and One Presence, God the Good.

God is present in all and through all.  God is present in me and my loved ones.  We are never alone.  There is no challenge or opportunity that is beyond the presence of God.   Trusting in the presence, I am free of fear and apprehension.

While in human form my first reaction to things that appear harmful and scary is fear. So many times I forgot to include God.  Now I stop the fear by inviting God into my life immediately and ask him to show me his will for me.God promises to never give me anything I can't handle as long as I am using his help.  Sometimes I am confused and then fear quickly sets in.  I am getting better at recognizing it and remembering unconditional love.  That is always God's choice for me.

There is only one Power in the universe, It is God, the Good. No entity, person or situation has the power to negate the goodness of God in me. Knowing this is true, I am strong and resilient.

I know God is always with me.  No matter what goes on outside of me I am still connected to God's love.  He always wants the best for me.  All I need do is connect with his power and invite him in.  He is always waiting for me to ask when I move into ego.  Sometimes I don't realize I am living from ego until I start butting my head up against a brick wall. Ego is sneaky. It can trick me by using what appears to be a spiritual solution and it is not.  I recognize it when the solution is not flowing.  Then I re-invite God in and ego is silenced.

As I acknowledge and affirm the presence and power of God in my, in others and in every circumstance, I tap into the allness of God that is continuously bringing forth blessings.  I live life with certainty and enthusiasm.

This year I am focusing on what I am doing right not what i did wrong.  I learn from my past and move forward.

Overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the leader of the synagogue, "Do not fear, only believe.  Mark 5:36

Choosing God's Will For Me

I choose wisely and co-create a world of beauty and peace.

When I chose and live from unconditional love I am co-creating through peace and beauty.

As a mason builds a wall he carefully chooses the next brick, the one that will fit most precisely, lend the greatest strength to the finished produce and contribute to the desired result.

God and I chose the right bricks for my foundation.  Reading, journaling, church, meeting and spiritual mentors.

I am the mason of my own life.  I choose the building blocks of strength, stability and endurance.  Daily, I learn from the master builder how to recognize the thoughts works and actions that create the design I desire.

God offers me choices. I can choose to offer unconditional love or live from ego.  My wish is to always choose God's will.  When I daily do things that make deposits in my spiritual bank account my life flows smoothly.  Sometime life on life's terms may kick me down but I can have peace through it all.

The choices I make today affect me and those around me. I consider the impact of each choice and trust divine wisdom for direction.  As i listen to spirit within, my decisions become clear.  I choose wisely and cocreate my world with God and others.

When I am judging I can't hear God's guidance.  My  job is to listen, stay in the moment and recognize God's will for me.  If I am unsure I ask for a clear visual aid.

Like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation...Each builder must choose with care how to build on it.  1 Corinthians  3:10

Listening to God's Guidance

I trust my God-given inner wisdom.

When I am connected with God's will for me I have "the wisdom to know the difference." (serenity prayer)

Through my ind I have contact with the mighty wisdom and intelligence of God, which governs all things by perfect law.  I needn't try to solve problems on my own. I trust my inner wisdom to reveal to me the exact steps to realizing my good.

I wish I could say I do this all the time but I don't.  Many times I spring into action as if I am doing God's will for me just to find out it was Donya's ego.  When things do not unfold effortlessly and easily I know I am not in God's will.  Many times my only job is to be patient.  That is very hard when I have a time table in my mind.  God's time not yours Donya.

Turning within, I release any uncertainty and affirm my oneness with the mind of God.  I let it direct and guide me.  Looking continually to God as the governing power in my life, I know what to do and when to do it.  Infinite wisdom is mine- I only need to turn to it and be receptive to its voice.

I love the knowledge and peace that comes when I turn inward to God's word.  His will for me always turns out to be way more rewarding than I ever imagined.

Conscious of god's directing wisdom, I find joy in working to bring forth good.  Being true to inner wisdom, to the voice of God within I trust and follow the guidance I receive.

Even when it looks like nothing is going to help me I still suit up and show up to the best of my ability.  In God's time all is revealed.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart.  Proverbs 3:5

Always With Respect

I have respect for myself and the people in my life.

I wish I was perfect at being respectful but I do find myself gossiping from time to time.  I now know to stop it and send positive energy their way.  This changes my perspective.  Progress not perfection.

Sometimes I find myself focusing on imperfections in myself or in others, particularly if I am feeling unsure of myself or drawn into a disagreement.  This kind of judgement  is simply a lower level of consciousness, but I can choose to rise to a spiritual perspective.

I am improving living from a higher consciousness and getting much better at it.  I know this is God's will for me so arguing or getting mad at a person is not God's will.

Taking a higher view immediately changes my attitude and emotions.  I carry myself with dignity and grace.  Respecting my divine nature and that of other people, I connect in a new way.  I stand erect and communicate with confidence and ease. Finding common ground with others becomes second nature to me.  With each exchange I demonstrate respect in all I think, say and do.

While I am older than my managers I still honor the with "yes sir or no sir." I respect people and the fact they too are on their own journey.  i don't know what their journey is so I am not qualified to judge.  My only job is to love unconditionally.

No good thing does the lord withhold from those who walk uprightly - Psalm 84:11

Divine Order

I live in the divine order of peace and love.

When I stay in the moment and love unconditionally I am living in God's will.  I am in divine order.

Today I claim my truth.  The presence and d power of God work in, through and as my life blessing others and blessing me.  I recognize the interconnectedness of all human beings and trust every situation and person has the potential to contribute to my life in a positive way.  I create order in my life and seek only the good, assured that as I seek so I shall find.

Everyone is on their own journey learning there way back to their creator.  I am not to judge.  I am to monitor my own judgement and negativity and decided not to participate when others are not living in God's will for them.   When I love unconditionally I will see the opportunities God puts in front of me.

Through divine order, my life is transformed.  Every cloud has a silver lining.  Every apparent problem brings with it a divine solution.  Every solution held in minds brings a greater expression of divine love.  Divine order is always present and active in my life allowing me to live in peace and love.

By getting up every morning and asking God to guide me throughout the day to do his will.  This creates divine order in my life and along comes peace.

Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble.  Psalm 119:165

Celebrate New Birth

Birth is about the expression of new and unlimited potential.   Jesus taught and fulfilled this potential in his life. Jesus teachings remind me to look at my life in new ways.  They reveal that my faith can make me well, that prayer brings me a clearer experience of God and that one person can and does make a difference in the world.

I may only be one person but I have gifts and unconditional love to give.  I don't want to be in the company of negative judgemental people, places or things.  Even through I still find myself going there I stop-refocus and start again.

I have unlimited potential because I am made in this truth, and it is his example that inspires me to fully express my divine possibilities.

Jesus was a human who understood his connection with God.  He was a pure spiritual being.  He came to show us what abilities we too have.  We don't seek a connection directly to god like Jesus so we are filled with judgment and expectation.

Whether I am reflecting on the birth of a child, the birth of an idea or the birth of a major change in my life, I am filled with hope and faith for the unlimited potential for good.

I can't do anything big and beneficial to others unless God is my pilot.

The child to be born will be holy; he will be called the son of God. Luke 1:35

Integrity, Grace And Honesty

In envision only the best for my life.

God's vision for me is so much bigger and better than my thoughts are.

Just as a child imagines opening gifts on Christmas morning, my imagination is the springboard for creating my reality.  as i imagine an activity, a goal being accomplished or a positive encounter with another person, I set the stage for results that bless me and build the life of my dreams.

When I set a goal ( getting a permanent job) I spoke it, I journaled it, I felt it happening. I was excited when it came through with a raise.  The same with where I live, and manifested it and a new car.  With God I am a wonderful manifester.  With my car I give Genia a ride to choir.  With my home I created a place to rest and renew myself.

Since doubt and worry are a misuse of my power of imagination, I choose instead to expect the best from myself and others. I envision life bringing good.  All the good I need and enough to share.  I live in a world of infinite possibilities.  Visualizing a positive reality.  Spurred be the power of my imagination, I make my dreams come true.

How can I go wrong with God on my side.  I have everything I need and a lot of what I want. I am taken care of by my father, God.

For all the land that you see I will give to you, Genesis 13:15

Today I pray to live from integrity, live by your grace and honesty in everything I do. I will not send negative energy to anyone or anything.  When ego starts I can stop my thought process and refocus it on positive energy and send unconditional love.

It's A New Year

I enter this new year with enthusiasm.

I wasn't enthusiastic or negative about the new year. It feels like I am right where I am suppose to be doing what God wants me to do.

This is a new day at the start of a new year, and I choose a new way of being.  I choose to be fee of limiting thoughts of the past and to not allow outworn habits or beliefs to control my life.

I have a choice every moment.  I can either find the good in people, place, or things or judge.  Judging is of ego and its negative energy in my space and to all the people around me.  I choose to drop my old beliefs that no longer serve me and practice unconditional love. I know this is god's will for me.

Perhaps I am guided to try something I have not tried before or go somewhere I've never been.  If so I open my mind to divine direction and guidance, and I accept these new experiences as loving gifts.  I look for and find the blessings they bring.  Blessings of new relationship, hidden talents and the fullness of success.

God wants an abundance of prosperity and peace for me.  He has more in store for me than I can every imagine.  He puts opportunities in front of me and my job is to participate coming from unconditional love. I am God's success.

I am excited about this new beginning.  Through presence of God in me, my life is brimming with unlimited possibilities for good.

This new beginning has lots to teach me. The two most important things I can build on is being able to practice unconditional love in all that I do and know that no matter what I can be at peace in my life. Fasten your seat belt Donya we are going on a wonderful ride.

He put a new song in my mouth, a song of peace and praise to our God.  Psalm 40:3

Healing Powers

I am infused with healing power.

Jesus came down to teach us that we all have the power to give unconditional love. Through faith we are powerful enough to heal or move mountains. Literally. Through spiritual healing and growth can we begin to realize the gifts we have.  Meditation will help me with knowing the gifts I have and what God wants me to do with them.

The healing power of Spirit works in and through me.  Illness is not who I am, and I am not defined by a diagnosis.  I am one with Spirit, and the life force of god is at work, both inside and outside of me.

When it is my turn to return to my creator I will willingly, no matter the diagnosis is or if in an accident be ready to go on my spiritual journey.  I evolve with each new growth spurt of faith I experience.

I consciously open myself to receive God's life-giving energy in mind, body and spirit.  During prayer and meditation, I visualize myself harnessing this energy.  I see God's healing light lovingly infusing every cell, every organ of my body.

I am full of God's light.  Every fiber of my being is where God is.  He is no part of my flesh that is man made.  He is where the soul resides.

I deny anything that stands in the way of accepting God's healing light. I affirm that I am completely whole and healed.  Reaching out to others, I ask for support and provide love and complete acceptance to those who need healing power.

I can either judge or accept a healing.  When I judge I am sending negative energy to the soul. No matter what diagnosis I may receive I know I am exactly where I am suppose to be.  We are all going to lay down these human body but the being in me will return to my creator.

All in the crowd were tyring to touch him for power came out from him and he healed all of them  Luke 6:19
