G-d Makes All Things New

The Divine Consciousness that I Am is forever expressing its true nature of Abundance. This is Its responsibility, not mine. My only responsibility is to be aware of this Truth. Therefore, I am totally confident in letting go and letting G-d appear as the abundant all-sufficiency in my life and affairs, now. And so it is.

My Good Is Revealed As G-d

I rejoice and give thanks that G-d has revealed to me the good that is mine. I know I can claim this good for G-d has revealed it to me ... for me. My mind is open and receptive to all that I am to know and all that I am to do, to bring forth this good into physical manifestation. I realize that this good comes to me with grace and ease, and so I effortlessly allow it to demonstrate through my consciousness now. My faith in the Power of G-d to bring forth this good through me, through my mind, is absolute. I expect this good to be made manifest and I prepare my consciousness to receive it. As I align my consciousness with God-consciousness, I realize that success and prosperity fill my mind and there is nothing to obstruct the flow of the good that is mine, now. This good is a sacred gift from G-d, and I know that G-d responds to my thoughts of joy and happiness in knowing that I have accepted this good right here and right now. My mind is filled with enthusiasm as I imagine the unfoldment of all that is necessary for me to experience this good fully and completely. What a joy it is to know that G-d is so very, very good to me. And in love and thanksgiving, I in turn, share this good with all who are part of this tremendous demonstration of infinite abundance. I let this be so now. And so it is.

I Shine the Light

Credit to Dr. O. C. Smith, Co-Founder, City of Angels Church of Religious Science, author, "Little Green Apples: God really did make them"

I am the Light of the world. I shine the Light of truth on, in and through all false conditions, situations and circumstances that appear and present themselves to me. I am open and receptive to my true nature and purpose in life. I am willing to express myself as I am. I live fully in this moment and know that God's work is already accomplished. In consciousness, I move into the light of my true being. I see God and only God in all that I think, say, do and feel. I see God is my security. I am anchored in my divinity, and all is well. Everywhere I look, I see God. The infinite life of God is right where I am. Today I go forth sharing my light and my life with others, bringing good into their lives as I enjoy my own life. For all of these blessings I am grateful. And so it is! ... October, 2001

Living from the Spirit

Credit to Dr. Frank Richelieu, "The Art Of Being Yourself"
page 38-39:
Say to yourself today:

I am a Spirit-directed individual. I am guided and directed by the Power within me. I am an avenue of expression through which Life can flow in new and different ways. I am a today person. I do not look to tomorrow with fear and apprehension. I know when tomorrow comes it will bring with it its own special wealth of living and being. So I live today, fully, with the expectation of all good.

Delay Is Not Defeat

The Spirit of God fills my mind, my heart, and my soul, as I realize within myself that delay is not defeat. "Waiting on the Lord" is simply the process of my consciousness embodying the mental equivalent of that which I desire to experience. As I experience the good that I seek, in mind, I move ever closer to manifesting that which I choose to experience in the physical. There is no defeat in God, and there is no defeat in me. The good that I seek is mine, and I rest assured that my personal relationship with the Infinite is my God-guarantee that it is mine to accept, to receive, and to enjoy, now. My heart is filled with gratitude and great love for that which is within me that knows, and knows that it knows, that all is well, everything is working for my good, and I am blessed ... today and always. And so it is.

Treatment for Health

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.

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!
