What A Butterfly Reveals!

Leave a comment

…Expecting nothing, am always full of thanks for moderate goods.  – Ralph Waldo Emerson

expectation

We all know that expectation is at the root of most suffering. We want things to happen a certain way, they don’t, we suffer. We want others to be one way, they don’t comply, we like them not. Why do we do this to self?

butterflies

We can decide to be like a butterfly. We are exuberant and colorful. We alight where beauty resides and partake of the nectar that’s freely available. We expect naught and experience joy!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM a butterfly!

How Never To Be Lonely…

Leave a comment

No God-knowing mortal can ever be lonely in his journey through the cosmos, for he knows that the Father walks beside him each step of the way...  – The Urantia Papers, (117:6.27)

god-knowing

God-knowing simply means accepting God’s presence in our lives. And recognizing that God is the ultimate author of reality and therefore our own existence.

acceptance

Acceptance of this Truth sets us free. We can roam the playground that is our planet with full confidence that it ‘all works out’ and that ‘all is well’. We truly should not be worried in life. No wonder Jesus always said ‘Be of good cheer’ and ‘Fear not’! God himself walks with us constantly…

How To Find Peace…

There is a silence into which the world cannot intrude. There is an ancient peace you carry in your heart and have not lost…  – A Course in Miracles – ACIM

stillness

The center is always available. It’s nestled just under the turbulent storm that our thoughts create. As we become more aware of our thoughts and learn how to dive below that surface, we can be acquainted with this soothing haven.

remember

We must remind self that this wellspring exists. Access to it becomes easier and natural when we do that. Even if it feels that way, God hasn’t left us without assistance on this confused planet of ours…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM aware of that quiet center…

We can only be free when we’re attentively relaxed and fully present. In this vast space there’s a distinguishable peace. Once we arrive we get to taste ambrosia and it’s heavenly! Why would we want to be anywhere else?
