DAY 155
God is bigger than any limited circumstance in our past; God is bigger than any limitation that the world is showing us now. Limitations exist only as a challenge to us to mature spiritually, as we realize that through the grace of God we are bigger than they are.
DAY 156
Enlightenment is not learning but unlearning.
DAY 157
Dear God, I release to You my weaknesses and wounds, My fears and defects. Please remove them all, That I might be a pure expression Of who You created me to be. Amen.
DAY 158
DAY 159
In truth, the purpose of my relationships is that I and another experience maximal growth and joy.
DAY 160
Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we have learned here. The spiritual journey is the relinquishment—or unlearning—of fear and the acceptance of love back into our hearts. Love is the essential existential fact. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning and the purpose of our lives.
DAY 161
What I place on the altar to God is then altered within my mind.
Dear God, May my relationships be lifted To divine right order And take the form That best serves Your purposes. May all unfold, Within me and the relationship, According
Amen.
DAY 162
In the spiritual universe, we only keep what we give away.
Today I give my love to others, that I might feel more loved myself.
DAY 163
DAY 164
May I tend every part of my garden with love, that it might grow to be the most beautiful manifestation of all that is good, holy, and true.
DAY 165
DAY 166
Today I pray for a miracle. I shall allow it to happen, and not resist it. I am open to a new beginning, a life unlike the past. My relationships shall be made new. My career shall be made new. My body shall be made new, and my mind shall be made new. Not later but now, not elsewhere but here, not through pain but through peace. And so be it.
Dear God, I affirm with all my heart That in You All things are made new. May my mind and body, Relationships and attitudes, Reflect the alchemy of Your miraculous power In me and all beings. And so it is. Amen.
DAY 167
DAY 168
May I remember each instant today that I am on this earth for one reason only: to love and be loved.
Dear God, May my mind not be clouded today By confusing thoughts that lead me nowhere, Unimportant things that block the truth, Or fears that hide my love. Every instant, may Your spirit remind me Of who I am, who others are, And why we all are here. Amen.
DAY 169
I am willing to endure the sharp pains of self-discovery, in order to release the dull pain of unconsciousness that could otherwise last for the rest of my life.
Dear God, I surrender to You My fear and my resistance to finding out who I really am. I am willing to understand myself, That I might serve You more. Please send Your angels to accompany me As I journey through the jungle of my fears To the meadows of peace beyond. Amen.
DAY 170
An ancient memory of this love haunts all of us all the time, and beckons us to return.
DAY 171
Today I accept myself as God created me, so I might experience the truth of who I really am.
Dear God, Please heal my fractured sense of self. I am prone to feeling flawed, Not good enough, Or otherwise less than you created me to be. I need a miracle to set me free Of my false beliefs about myself. Thank you, God. Amen.
DAY 172
That which is eternal is the truth of who we are—changeless, loving, and immortal.
I surrender my mind for healing today, that I might be part of the mass awakening that is lifting all of us out of our nightmares.
Dear God, May I not be tempted today To believe in the illusions Of suffering and loss. May I rather see through them to the possibilities for healing And be used by You to bring the healing forth. And so it is. Amen.
DAY 173
I need only be patient and wait for a perfect universe to make right again any paths that have gone wrong.
And all setbacks are temporary.
DAY 174
will try to be conscious of even the tiniest demonstrations of the miracle of life.
Dear God, May my eyes be opened wider today, That I might see more Of Your awesome creation. May I not be tempted to focus elsewhere Than on the truth of You. Even when I bear witness to that which is wrong, May I remember that in You there is always a way To make things right. And so it is. Amen.
DAY 175
People who are always telling us what’s wrong with us don’t help us so much as they paralyze us with shame and guilt. People who accept us help us to feel good about ourselves, to relax, to find our way. Accepting another person doesn’t mean we never share constructive suggestions. But like everything else, our behavior is not so much the issue as the energy it carries. If I’m criticizing someone in order to change them, that’s my ego talking. If I’ve prayed and asked God to heal me of my judgment, however, and then I’m still led to communicate something, the style of my sharing will be one of
