I am open to whatever God has in store for me today. God works through me to reach the ones who do not have a personal relationship with him. I can listen, love, and accept them knowing they are a child of God. I may not choose to participate in their behavior but I can still love them.
God is always there for me as I am for the people, places or things he puts into my path. There have been times where I had no idea where the money was going to come from for food, shelter and a vehicle. Someone or something has always been there. There have been years where I made so little money that I can’t imagine how I survived but I did. Again God always put someone or something to get me through.
I no longer fear financial insecurity because I always have what I need and a lot of what I want.
God has great things planned with me and he will always give me the resources to do them. He never gives me a job that he is not there with all the resources to help me succeed. Not only do I succeed but I do it in a big way. Thank you God for walking with me and helping me in every area of my life. I pray today that I will always invite you in when I am awake or asleep. Go God!

Magnify
I have a mentor who always says, “What you focus on expands.” This is great if it is a positive loving focus but, that is not the one that kicks my butt.
The one that gets my day all messed up is when I get in a negative mindset. When I judge a person, place or thing I am not coming from love and it drops my energy level down more than I care to think about. It takes more energy to be negative than positive. Many times a day I now stop and ask myself, “What were you just thinking about, was it uplifting or tearing something or someone down. “
I had another mentor who would say “Are you lifting or leaning today.” Every day I try to lift but in human form that is not always going to be the case. I am going to forget that God only wants the best for me and is going to put in front of me his will at every moment. My job is to stay in the moment and recognize these opportunities.
I do this by daily writing 5 things I am grateful for. I never write the same one during the week but sometimes it has to be something as simple as “I breathed today.” Most of the time it is the joy of all the people, places and things that God has put in my life at this time. This helps me find the good in any day. Especially those times that feel harder than others.
By focusing on where my attention is I can catch myself dwelling on something negative faster than I use to. I can then stop and redirect my focus to the good that is always around me. A simple mind shift changes my day, my life and the people I meet at this moment. I can now uplift people instead of lean on them. This way my spirit blesses others and I am doing God’s will.
I magnify love. I am changed for the better. Go God

I Am Free And Unlimited
When I am in God’s will I am unlimited in every part of my being. I know because I am at peace.
I open myself to his wisdom because I know he loves me unconditionally and only wants the very best for me. His will always lead me to joy and peace.
Freedom is a state of being and also a state of mind. When I feel trapped or burdened I am living in ego and have left God. I can just see him sitting on the curb waiting for me to get sick and tired of what is going on in my life and come over and take his hand. I can hear him say come on my child, I have lots of love to share with you.
When I drop the inner chains I inflict on myself I am guaranteed love and freedom. I can worry or stew over a problem and ruin my day or possibly my week. Then I remember the famous saying, “If it is big enough to worry give it to God, if it is to small for God then stop worrying.” This reminds me to release the chains that hold me back from the opportunities God has put in front of me today.
This is true freedom. Being able to stay in the moment and enjoy what God has put in front of me right now is truly freeing. I don’t have to regret the past or worry about the future. I am perfect right now. Even when I make wrong choices I can be free by making a new choice and choosing new behavior.
I let go of the past right now and enjoy the freedom of my present being. I move forward into my life and know that God wants only the best for me. Even if it comes in a fearful package I can walk through anything and be free with him as my pilot. Go God

Comfort
Comfort comes in many styles, shapes and sizes. It can be a friend who is willing to listen, a mother soothing her baby’s cries, a card or note to someone struggling. The best comfort we can get is from God. He loves us unconditionally and will always be there when a human may not be.
I never have to be alone again. No matter what life throws at me I always have God’s love. God only wants me to be happy, joyous and free just like every parent wants for their children.
Today I know, no matter what I am going through, God is there for me and meets all my needs. I can get through any experience with dignity and grace. Peace is mine for the asking. God never leaves me, however I do leave him. Then I am in worry and fear. I am in ego. (edging God out) I am lifted knowing that God accepts me unconditionally. My goal is to share this will in every people, place or things I encounter.
Thank you God for lifting me up and cheering me on as I walk this human life.
Below is a meditation from the Unity Daily Word I want to share
I resolve never to be depressed or cast down by any inharmonious situation that involves me or my loved ones. God is my comfort.
If I am grieved by the actions of one who is near and dear to me, or feel a sense of loss because of the passing of a beloved friend, I at once rise out of this negative state of mind. I turn to God in the certainty of His love, and I am comforted.
Because I am a son of God I am not subject to melancholy or despair. I know that my Father is the very essence of love. He loves me with a deep and everlasting love that nothing can alter or disturb.
I express this love toward everyone with whom I come in contact. I set him free from any thought of obligation toward me, free to live the glorious life that God has purposed for him.

Togetherness
I now know God’s will for me is to always come from a place of love. This creates harmony and peace in all my relationships.
We all are wonderful creations of God and all have the ability to love unconditionally. As I grow and learn to share this gift with others I create happiness in a multitude of ways. The more I give, the more the world can learn to love unconditionally. This ripple effect could heal the world and create peace.
As I go through my everyday life I will try to practice love instead of judgment. As soon as I catch myself choosing judgment I will stop and ask "what is going on inside of me that I can change." After all I can only change me and sometimes that is even difficult.
My job is not to change others. We are all on our own journey. I remember this and allow the other person to be exactly who they are. This does not mean I keep my mouth shut when I have needs. I can communicate to the other person, place, or thing from a place of love my needs. They may or may not be able to give me what I need. God has put someone in my life to help me meet those needs. I do not force my needs on anyone. I go to God and ask for him to fulfill my needs.
I want to always be there for my fellow man if that is God’s will. How do I know God’s will for me? I pray and ask for guidance. Meditating helps me hear from God. If I miss the first answer God will get through to me even if I am a little slow in hearing his message.
Today I thank you God for all the people, places and things you put into my life to help me grow, do your will and create more peace in this angry world we live in. Go God.

Life Is A Process
Mary Casey wrote: "For all the sadness in closure, there is a new and joyful unfolding in the process of becoming."
People come and go in our lives. Some stay a long time, maybe forever, and some only for a season. Life is a process. I am not to hold onto a person, place or thing because I think I need it to be complete.
God does not open a new door until the old one is shut. Out past is not meant to re-live over and over. The choices I made in the past reflect on my reality today. If I do not like where I am change what I do today. Do not go into the past and try to re-live it. People are a process in my life.
Using my spiritual tools on each and every situation I am growing and discovering God's will for me. My journey is unlike anyone else and so is theirs. It is not my place to tell anyone how they should behave. They too are on their own journey trying to connect with Love. They are in their own process.
The pain and fear I feel today can bring me peace when I stay right where God is. In the NOW!!
I find myself not liking the pain or drama anymore. I now remember quicker than before that I can ask for a miracle. God give me peace with this situation so I can do my part. I always ask God for peace while I walk through difficult situations. I thank him before I get on the other side. I know he is with me during the process I am going through.
Then I grow even stronger in my spirituality. I learn that I find peace quicker now than I did before. No more butting my head against the wall trying to do it my way.
As I go through the daily processes of life I practice remembering to invite God in to every decision I need to make. Thank you God for giving me the insight to know you always want what is best for me. Even when I don't like where I am in the process. Go God

Things Are Working Out
Right now in my life things are unfolding. Are they unfolding like I think they should? Some are and some are not. My faith tells me that my ego questions the ones that I feel are painful. I realize I have left God's will and in fear. (False Evidence Appearing Real)
I am learning that when I stay in the moment things work as they are suppose to in my life. The universe is nudging me to follow the rhythm that my energy life force is shaping as I grow. If I miss this opportunity to grow it will be repeated just in another dress or pair of pants. (this means another person will enter my life to help me learn the lesson)
My soul will always guide me where I need to be. Then things work our smoothly and effortlessly. Where I am going is exactly where I need to be. Things are working out.
I never need to force myself with persons, places or things. I am not here to set them straight. They are also on their journey. While it may look like I know what they need it is for them to discover using their spiritual tools.
Many times I fight change. Fear sets in of the unknown. It often feels that I am in a painful place. If I ask God for his will and listen for guidance it will then be revealed to me that it was for the good all along.
For example, my car. I have been struggling with keeping it going for sometime. My dad has a solution but has not done his part yet. I am frustrated because I am restricted to where I can go and I am not living my best life. I can only drive it where I must go not where I want to go. I prayed God would show me a miracle and help me solve this situation. What came back to me in mediation was "be prepared and know I am with you always." Then I looked up a tow truck number and have an extra $65 dollars in my pocket should something happen. Things are working out.
