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

How To Find Eternity…

God exists in eternity. The only point where eternity meets time is in the present. The present is the only time there is.  – Marianne Williamson

now!

All we have is now. All that we do, can only be in the present moment. And for that reason when we’re thinking and processing in our minds, we can’t really be doing anything else. We can’t be smelling the roses, we can’t really be listening to another, we can’t even listen to the signals our own body or soul might be sending our way!

Let’s pay attention to all the thoughts we’re processing, all day long. As we bring our attention to that constant activity, it will begin to slow down. We then create spaces between our thoughts that allow for peace, intuition, joy and direct perception possible. We start living a richer life.

affirmations

Today I AM present here and now. I AM with God. I know peace and joy. I AM content and peaceful.

How To Generate Peace…

There is no peace without forgiveness.  – Marianne Williamson

forgive!

How many resentments can we harbor? We pay a price for each resentment that we make our own. We can never truly rest or be peaceful until the psychological baggage of any resentment is resolved. And that transaction is completed only when we truly forgive.

Here’s a secret. God’s love and forgiveness can’t be felt in our heart until we can completely forgive all those who might have hurt us in anyway. It makes for a major spiritual block. Try this right now, in your mind find someone who irritates you or who you haven’t forgiven yet. Now visualize them and completely forgive them if you can. If you do, you’ll immediately feel a very palpable peace (a lightness) descend into your heart.

Forgiveness is the first step to peace, even to effective meditation. Ideally we should forgive daily.

affirmations

Today I AM forgiving everyone and everything that ever bothered me! I AM a forgiving machine. I feel lighter. I feel loved. I AM safe.

Why Be Quiet?

The quieter you become the more you can hear. Ram Dass

it’s all good

True silence can do wonders. True silence is that of the mind not that of the audible kind. As we become more still, we can observer better, we listen more intently, we perceive a lot more and our sense of intuition flowers! Inspiration and creativity is heightened when we let our mind settle down naturally.

How do you do that?

Watch yourself. Watch as thoughts arise, notice their origin, and where they lead you. Observe how you act or react to any incident. Get to know yourself intimately, in this fashion. Your effortless watching of self leads to a quiet alertness that connects you to the essence of all that is. A peace beyond understanding, a joy inexpressible, then emerges!

affirmations

Today I AM still. I AM peaceful. I AM connected. I AM joy.

When Winter Comes…

In the depths of winter, I finally learnt in me there was an invincible summer. Albert Camus

winter

Winter is here, but hope springs eternal. All courage, hope and light is within us. Will we tap this light? Will we be open to the Divine inside us?

affirmations

Today I AM hopeful. I AM open to divine guidance. Love and hope are my North Stars. I want for nothing…
