I'm So Thankful

I rejoice and give thanks for this day and for knowing that as I recognize the Presence of the Spirit in my life that everything is in perfect Divine Law and Order. My mind is relaxed as I accept the ideas that Spirit has for me today. I am never anxious or frustrated as I know that there is always and answer and a solution to every seeming problem. I give thanks for the opportunities that come to me to reveal my faith and awareness of G-d's infinite good expressing for me, through me. I have a deep conviction that I will always have plenty and some to spare. I give generously of that which I receive, knowing that I am giving from an infinite Source which always meets my every need. All that I do, I do with joy and enthusiasm, for I know that it is mine to do. I give thanks for my realization of these truths as they express effortlessly in my life now. And so it is. Amen.

Complete Faith In God

I have a complete faith in God, Infinite Spirit. I sustain this faith by listening for that "still small voice" that speaks to me of love, of peace, of harmony, and happiness. I depend on this guidance and support as I move forward accepting and enjoying a greater experience of success in all things that I do. My faith in always focused on the Good, that which affirms life, and that which increases and expands the greatest Good for all. I am always living in faith for my trust is in Almighty God, Infinite Presence. Nothing outside of me disturbs me for I know that All Power is in God ... the Good. I move forward each day with enthusiasm and confidence always assured that my Good shall be revealed in all things. I am always so very grateful for the Good that is revealed in my life for I know the source of my Good is God. I align myself with the ever-present Spirit and in quiet confidence I affirm that life is good all the time. Nothing can shake my faith in this Truth that permeates my consciousness, comes forth in the words that I speak, and is permanently impressed upon my subconscious. My complete faith in God is all that I shall ever require to guarantee that my life reflects the best that I can imagine for myself. I know this is so ... I let it be so. And so it is.

Keep the faith!

April 11-12, 2008 & Thanking God

I rejoice and give thanks that I am willing to "wait on the Lord" .. the "Law of my mind" to bring forth into my experience the Greater Good that I accept as mine. I know that my relationship with God is one of unity, and therefore, I can know and know that I know, that God-in-me agrees with the Good that I choose for myself. I foster and nurture the Truth that God is forever and ever giving to me that which is for my highest and greatest Good. There is nothing whatsoever that is withheld from me. My Good is here and now, for my God is here and now. My deep gratitude and innate generosity attract to me the best of times and the best of everything ... now. And so it is!

Keep the faith!

March 26, 2008 & Thankful Heart

I rejoice and give thanks that I have achieved the awareness of thankfulness. Knowing that God is always right where I am, within and without, I know that everything that comes to me, comes to me for my highest and greatest Good. I give thanks for every opportunity that comes to me to strengthen my relationship of Oneness with the Divine. I know and believe that everything is a reflection of my very own consciousness and so I accept that I have the power and the opportunity to change my world each and every moment, one thought at a time. My belief and acceptance that God is All there Is, keeps me motivated to rise in consciousness to a greater and grander acceptance of Good. I know and believe that I have an affluent consciousness, devoid of lack and limitation. I know that abundance is the Truth and poverty is but a sad illusion of separation from God, the Good. I feel blessed. I am blessed. I am thankful. And I rejoice that this is so. And so it is.

Keep the faith!
