Meant to be

It is easy just once a day, imagine the life you dream of. Believe that it can be yours in this world of magic and miracles. Choose to live as if you know of its inevitable manifestation. Don’t compromise. Don’t worry. Don’t look for results. And as surely as spirit crafts one moment after another, so too will it fuse together the life you now lead with the life of your dreams as if they were two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, destined to become one.

This alone determines what’s “meant to be.”

My Words and Actions are Inspired from My Heart

When I feel someone has not been honest or sincere about their feelings, I may feel that an opportunity has been missed. How cheated I feel.

Yet how exhilarated I feel when I share from my heart my honest and sincere feelings. My soul is lifted. I set the stage to be with someone who is open to listening and to talking about what comes from the heart and soul. That is participating in the communication of life.

What joy I feel when I allow others to know me and when I get to know them! I feel truly alive because I am more aware of the spirit within me. I am in tune with the heartbeat of the universe. How refreshed I feel to be aware that I have been touched by the heart of God.

Seventh Step Prayer

“My Creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me the strength, as I go out from here, to do your bidding. Amen.”

Fear and Desire

Fear and Desire are controllers ,

You must choose but one of the two.

One will keep you from winning,

The other will help get you through.

 

Fear keeps you where you’ve always been,

Then fear will lock the door.

Desire unlocks new ways to win,

Then helps you become so much more

 

Desire and fear are factors

 That determine how you live.

And only you can choose 

To which the power you’ll give.

 

Choose fear and you’ll go no farther.

You’ll give up on your dreams and just stop

 

Choose Desire and you will keep on climbing,

Making your way to the top

The Presence of My Higher Power is My Constant Source of Peace

During a crisis, I may wonder if I will ever again be free of worry and stress. Then, as I become quiet and allow my total focus to be on the presence of My Higher Power, I experience the peace and the immediate relief that my awareness of this peace brings to me.
What I have discovered is more than just a few moments of peace during a difficult time. I have discovered that peace is my constant reality because within me He is my constant source of peace.

I don’t want to think about what would have happened if I had not taken that moment to connect to my inner peace on a conscious level. I do want to remember what happened because I did take that moment. The experience was one of instant relief that helped me make it through a challenge.

May we all find Peace in this New Year
