With every thought we think, we either summon or block a miracle. It is not our circumstances, then, but rather our thoughts about our circumstances, that determine our power to transform them.
The more you drop into your heart, the more God can drop into your mind.
God isn't a noun but a process...a continual, infinitely creative outpouring of love and light onto all living things.
The universe is intentional. It is always moving in the direction of greater love, regardless whether or not we consciously align with that love.
Forgiveness is the ultimate preventive medicine, as well as the greatest healer.
My story has been the story of my generation.
Whatever we put out, it's coming back to us. The universe keeps a perfect set of books.
Forgiveness is a selective remembering. It is a conscious choice to focus on someone's innocence instead of his or her mistakes...This serves *you*...Your body was not created to bear the burden of your overattachment to it, but was created as a container for the light of your spirit. It will more easily remember how to function perfectly when you remember the perfection in everyone.

Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
The world loves us when we choose to love the world.
The field of quantum possibility, in which love has opened doors otherwise unimaginable, is our soul's true habitat. The world of fear and limitation is not our home, and who among us is not profoundly weary of hanging out where we do not belong.
