“This is your resistance to love and freedom. The lingering darkness within you is resisting happiness.”
resistance to love that keeps us in the dark. This resistance is the reason we stay stuck in patterns that keep us from thriving. You may have found that you regularly experience relief with meditation, prayer, positive affirmations, therapy, or any other type of personal growth, only to sabotage that great feeling with a limiting belief, negative comment, or addictive pattern.
We carry an unconscious belief that in order to stay alive, we must hold on to our protection mechanisms, no matter how great love may feel.
That’s because the primary reason for our unhappiness is startlingly simple: we are resistant to being happy.
To truly say yes to the love of the Universe means you have to look at your resistance and give up a thought system that you mistakenly identified as safety, security, and the foundation of your life.
UNIVERSAL LESSON: TO BE FREE WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE OUR RESISTANCE.
We must recognize that while we have a loving miracle mind-set within us that wants to be at peace, we also have a wrong mind that says, “I don’t want to be free. I don’t want to gi...

The more you’re reminded of what you want, the more you’ll embrace your capacity to receive it.

the Universe has your back.
I remember this experience as if it were yesterday. It was the moment I realized I had the power to connect to a loving force of energy far beyond my logical mind and my physical sight. It was the first time in my life that I felt truly safe.
My relationship to this energy is the most important thing in my life. Without it I lose my power, my purpose, and my connection to love.
UNIVERSAL LESSON: OUR HAPPINESS, SUCCESS, AND SAFETY CAN BE MEASURED BY OUR GENUINE CAPACITY TO TUNE IN TO THE LOVING VIBRATION OF THE UNIVERSE.
Joy is our birthright.
The way back to love begins with understanding how we disconnected in the first place. We all disconnect in our own unique ways. In some way or another, we deny the love of the Universe and choose the fear of the world. We choose to hook into the fears on the news, the fears in our classrooms, the fears in our households. We separate from the love of the Universe by giving purpose to pain and thinking power comes from outside sources. We deny the power of love, and we save our faith for fear. We forget love altogether.

The moment you realign with love and stop relying on your own strength, clear direction will be presented. The presence of love will always cast out fear.
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace! That where there is hatred, I may bring love. That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness. That where there is discord, I may bring harmony. That where there is error, I may bring truth. That where there is doubt, I may bring faith. That where there is despair, I may bring hope. That where there are shadows, I may bring light. That where there is sadness, I may bring joy. Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort, than to be comforted. To understand, than to be understood.
To love, than to be loved. For it is by self-forgetting that one finds. It is by forgiving that one is forgiven. It is by dying that one awakens to Eternal Life.
that when we surrender to the power of the Universe, we will always be guided to exactly what we need.
Synchronicity, guidance, healing, and abundance are available to us all the time. All we need to do is tune in to the energy of the Universe so that we can get into the flow with the supportive, loving energy. When we’re in alignment with this energy, life becomes a happy dream.
UNIVERSAL LESSON: WHEN WE SURRENDER OUR WILL TO THE POWER OF THE UNIVERSE, WE RECEIVE MIRACLES.

“Thank you, Universe, for helping me heal this. I forgive this thought, and I choose to see love instead.”
Energy flows where your attention goes. My focus and attention had been so negative that I cut off the possibility for love. Then the moment I said my prayer, I opened up my consciousness to receive new information. This was my way out of the fearful projection.
UNIVERSAL LESSON: YOU SEE THE WORLD THAT YOU HAVE MADE, BUT YOU DO NOT SEE YOURSELF AS THE IMAGE-MAKER.
Step 1: What is the fearful movie you’ve been playing?
Step 2: What’s the positive movie you’ve been playing?

When you dwell in an energy of positivity and power, you become a magnet for miracles.
“I witness that I’m out of alignment with my power. I choose to see peace instead of this.”
UNIVERSAL LESSON: YOUR PRESENCE IS YOUR POWER.
Remember that your intentions create your reality.
Power lies in knowing how your positive presence expands your outer life.
I witness that I’m out of alignment with my power. I choose to see peace instead of this.
Meditation and prayer open you up to the power of the Universe.
The presence of fear shows up when you’re not relying on the Universe. Your projection is your perception. Become aware of the fear-based stories you’ve been projecting on your internal movie screen. Your presence is your power. Be mindful of how your thoughts, words, and energy disconnect you from the Universe. And know the difference between what it feels like to be connected to the presence of your power versus what it feels like when you’re not.
When you notice yourself disconnect from the presence of love, say this prayer to come back to peace: “I witness that I’m out of alignment with my powe...
