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
