Today's thought: Giving and receiving.
Most of us have been taught to give to others, but seldom taught how to graciously receive whatever others might give to us.
We give because there is joy in giving, in seeing the surprise and smile on the other person's face. In order for us to experience this joy, there must be someone willing to receive. When we practice both, we will experience a greater degree of satisfaction with life in general, and our own lives in particular.
Wishing you the blessings of graciously giving and graciously receiving.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Daily Prayer
Monday, July 20, 2015
Today's thought: Daily Prayer
The following daily prayer, written by St. Francis of Assisi, was given to me by a friend and I would like to share its peace and beauty with you.
"Lord, help me to live this day quietly, easily,
To lean upon Thy great strength trustfully, restfully,
To wait for the unfolding of Thy will, patiently, serenely,
To meet others peacefully, joyously,
To face tomorrow confidently, courageously."
May you experience all these blessings on a daily basis.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Caring for self.
Friday, July 3, 2015
Today's thought: Caring for self.
To care for one's self is so important and not always encouraged. Unity's Daily Word for July 1 explains this so beautifully, that I wanted to share it with you.
"I honor God by caring for myself. As fast as life goes sometimes, I may find it difficult to stop, rest, and take care of myself. I may feel pressured to do things for others and keep a hectic pace to meet their requests I remember the lyrics of a country song, "I'm in a hurry to get things done. Oh, I rush and rush until life's no fun."
'I stop hurrying and care for myself. The most important person to focus on is me. Caring for myself is honoring Spirit within. I rest, breathe, and step away from pressures or worries. I take time to connect with God through prayer and meditation. I also take time for fun!
'Caring for myself does not take away from my ability to care for others. It energizes me and strengthens my relationship with God. I honor God by caring for myself."
Wishing you blessings beyond number.....and peace, joy, and love always.

Look for the good.
Wednesday, June 24, 2015
Today's thought: Look for the good.
They say there is a little bit of bad in the best of us and a little bit of good in the worst.
This is also true for all situations. No matter how things may seem to be at the time, there is always something good that can come from it. Make it a habit to look for the good and build on that, for whatever we focus on multiplies.
Wishing for you all the blessings that will come when you begin to look for the good everywhere.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

The power of love.
Wednesday, June 17, 2015
Today's thought: The power of love.
"Love in the human soul is the greatest power in matter. Demonstrate the power of love for one morning in your home, your shop, your office, wherever your work takes you. Demonstrate - not by telling everyone that you love them, that is not the way - but by holding a steady thought of their God-qualities, by always seeing the good in every condition, striving always for beauty of speech or action or thought."
White Eagle Weekly Wisdom
Wishing you the blessing of realizing the power of love.....and peace and joy, always.

Trust yourself.
Wednesday, June 10, 2015
Today's thought: Trust yourself.
From the writings of The Buddha:
"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense."
Trust your instincts, your intuition, your own Inner Guidance. It will reveal your own individual path to enlightenment.
Wishing you the blessing of a beautiful, peaceful, day filled with what matters most to you.....and love and joy, always.

Along the way.
Monday, June 8, 2015
Today's thought: Along the way
From the writings of Abraham:
"You can never have a happy ending at the end of an unhappy journey. It just doesn't work out that way. The way you're feeling, along the way, is the way you're continuing to pre-pave your journey, and it's the way it's going to continue to turn out until you do something about the way you're feeling."
We alone choose the thoughts we think, that turn into feelings, that turn into actions and reactions; so it is in our own best interests to choose better-feeling thoughts as much as we possibly can. A part of what we do every day is the result of habit and it can become habitual to think the worst of everything that happens in our daily lives. When we choose better thoughts, we choose better lives.
Wishing you blessings beyond your wildest dreams.....and peace, joy, and love, always.
