Knowing that the Infinite has instilled within me the intelligence to choose, I choose health, peace of mind, and freedom. I am free in the Spirit and this Spirit dwells within me. My health is an expression of God-in-me; perfect, whole, complete. I am relaxed and my mind is filled with peace as I know the truth about health. I know that God is Life and I am part of this Life which is God. I know that every part of my Being is animated and alive with the Spirit of God. I know that there is nothing that obstructs my health, my peace of mind, or my freedom to express life physically, mentally and emotionally in a state of complete, whole and perfect health. Every part of my Being is healthy; mind, body, spirit. Nothing shall enter my consciousness that does not demonstrate health and peace in my experience. I fully accept that I am expressing God's infinite health and peace as me, for me, and through me. I know that it is God expressing all these things through my consciousness of acceptance and gratitude. I surrender all things unlike health and peace of mind to God, Infinite Spirit, knowing and trusting that everything that concerns me is harmonized into the Good; health, peace, joy. And so it is.
Keep the faith!

Bless This Day
There is one Power, one Presence, and one Life, and I am blessed by this Power, this Presence, and this Life today and always. I bless the Spirit of God within me and within all people. I know that I am blessed to give and to be given to, and so today I accept the good that is mine and I share it generously and lovingly. Everything and everyone in my experience is blessed by my conscious awareness that God is All and All is God. I go through this day with a song in my heart knowing that I am supported and sustained by the Power of the Almighty Living God. I believe and know that this Living God lives in me, works through me, and is present with me at all times. I am blessed this day lovingly and generously in all things. I know this is so. I let it be so, and so it is!

Dr. Joseph Murphy - Prayer for Security
"In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength." (Isaiah 30:15) I know that my inner feeling of security is based on my knowledge that God takes care of me, and I have confidence in His direction. My greatest security is that I know and feel God's Presence. I know deep down in my heart that God is the Source of all life and all blessings. God is with me and for me, He watches over me, He cares for me, He provides for me, He supports me, and He loves me. My thoughts are thoughts of fulfillment, since all of God's desires always are being fulfilled. He restoreth my soul and my thought life. His goodness and mercy follow me all the days of my life, for I have chosen to dwell mentally and spiritually with God all the days of my life.

I Live A Life Of Grace And Ease
I live a life of grace and ease for I maintain my connection with my Source; God, Infinite Spirit. I know that I am never separated from the Wisdom, Peace, Joy and Strength of my Source ... and my experiences reflect this awareness with grace and ease. I love living this life that is mine to experience. I grow ever closer to the Spirit within me as I involve God in all things that concern me. I know that Wisdom guides me and directs me in all that I do for I know that my recognition that this is so opens my consciousness to all the good that is mine. Each and every day I fill my mind with spiritual inspiration knowing that I of mine own self can do nothing without the Spirit that is my very life. I accept with deep gratitude that this life is a gift ... and I am so very grateful for it. And so it is.
Keep the faith!

I Weave A New Pattern Of Thought Through My Mind
Beginning in this moment I weave a new pattern of thought through my mind. I let the thoughts of the past be done, finished ... and I embrace in my mind a new idea of myself. This new idea that I embody today is that all that I do is successful, all that I accept for myself is good and very good. I accept the idea of me as a divine expression of Infinite Spirit filled with love, peace, joy and happiness. I accept the idea of me living a life filled with enthusiasm and passion for life, love and Truth. I accept the idea of me today living in financial abundance with enough to share and to spare. I accept the idea of me today as a living example of someone who has been greatly blessed and continues to be blessed with every good thing I can imagine for myself. I am ready to experience the good life and I begin to experience it right now in this very moment. I accept and believe that I am divinely guided and directed to realize the Good in all things and all people who enter into my experience of life. Today in this new vision and in this new consciousness, I accept that Spirit works through me, as me, and for me, to make everything possible, now. And so it is!

A Bright New Beginning
Credit to Dr. Frank Richelieu, "The Art Of Being Yourself" -
Say to yourself:
"In Spirit I live and move and have my being. Wherever I am, it is. Whatever it is, I am. Whenever I call upon it, it responds. I have but to align my consciousness to its infinite flow.
Today, I claim the consciousness that is mine. Today, I claim the joy that is mine. Today, I claim the peace that is mine. Today, I claim the harmony that is mine."
Claim these things. They are here for you. When you accept them, you are not taking from another. You are not diminishing the supply.
