Children of God.

Saturday, March 7, 2015

Today's thought:  Children of God.

From the writings of Paramahansa Yogananda:

"Make a resolution in this New Year to realize the truth that although as a mortal man you have certain habits, as a divine being you are free.  Affirm again and again:  "I am a child of God.  I am one with God."

We are all of us, children of God; and all of us, members of His family.

Wishing you the blessing of realizing deep within your soul that we are all children of God.  Let us act accordingly with peace, joy, and love.

Bless your work.

Friday, March 6, 2015

Today's thought:  Bless your work.

Bless your life's work, the workplace, your co-workers, and all those who come into the building.  If and when you perceive problems, view them as objectively as possible, and find calm and peaceful solutions.  Do your own work and as much as possible, mind your own business.  You are being paid a wage to do the best you can.  Keep in mind that a company is a business, not a charitable organization.  It is not there to take care of your every possible need, that is your responsibility.  Learn all that you can, do your best, and bless the work that allows you to take care of yourself and pay your bills.

Wishing you all the blessings you wish for, and interesting, rewarding work.

Peace. Joy. Love,

Zizi

I accept myself.

Thursday, March 5, 2015

Today's thought:  I accept myself.

From the writings of Henri Nouwen:

"The greatest trap in our life is not success, popularity or power, but self-rejection."

If we are to effect any changes in ourselves and our circumstances, we must first accept ourselves and those circumstances, view them objectively, and then decide on a course of action.  Whatever mistakes we may think we made were all part of the learning-and-growing experiences of our lives.  When we are able to accept ourselves, in all our humanness, we will more easily be able to accept others in theirs.

Wishing you the blessing of accepting yourself with love and understanding.....and peace and joy, always.

Food is life.

Wednesday, March 4, 2015

Today's thought:  Food is life.

Be respectful of food.  Food is life.  When shopping for food, handle it gently, with respect and gratitude that someone planted the seeds and harvested it, someone transported it to the store where you shop, someone sorted the food and displayed it so that you might make your choices, and be grateful that food is available to you and you have the means to purchase it.

Be mindful of the food you choose and all those who make it possible for you to do so.  Be respectful of your food and your body that will consume it.  Food is life and a huge blessing.  Be grateful, be respectful, and be gentle.

Wishing you the blessing of awareness of all you have, all you are, and all that you can be.

Peace.  Joy.  Love,

Zizi

Understanding

Monday, March 2, 2015

Today's thought:  Understanding

From the writings of Paulo Coelho:

"Culture makes people understand each other better.  And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers.  But first they have to understand that their neighbor is, in the end just like them, with the same problems, the same questions."

Regardless of shape, size, ethnicity, or color, we are all children of God, worthy and deserving of love and respect.  The golden rule of "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is always relevant, always appropriate, and always desirable.

Wishing you the blessing of understanding......and peace, joy and love, always.
