How Live Abundantly…

Life in abundance comes only through great love. Elbert Hubbard

love

How filled with love is our life? How about our pursuits, desires and even mundane activities? Consider how much greater any relationship is when it’s based on love. How much do we look forward to our day when our job is truly fulfilling? Which can only happen if we love our job. What if we were in love with life itself? How would that make our day, week or whole year? Here’s the problem though, we can’t easily love external objects and beings if we’re not comfortable in our own skin, if you don’t appreciate our own self, if we don’t love self.

Love is the currency of the universe, it’s the underlying reality of it all. Live in love and we’ve figured out one of life’s deepest mysteries! Love it up!

affirmations

I AM loving it up today! I remember that love is the true essence of life. I remind myself to love when I feel fear or depressed. Life really is good.

St. Teresa’s Prayer…

May today there be peace within
May you trust your highest power
that you are exactly where you are meant to be….

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith
May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you….
May you be content knowing you are a child of God….
Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your
soul the freedom to sing, dance, and to bask in the sun….
It is there for each and every one of you….

Prayer of St. Teresa

daily

Daily we must remind ourselves of the Truth in this prayer. May we never suffer, never fear and always feel the love that God has for us…

affirmations

Today I AM settling this prayer into my ‘bones’. I know I AM a child of God. I AM safe and I AM loved.

How To Be A Positive Person…

Be a light, not a judge. Be a model, not a critic. Be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Stephen R. Covey (Seven Habits of Highly Effective People)
