Every change is a challenge to become who we really are.
Success means we go to sleep at night knowing that our talents and ablities were used in a way that served others.
May my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home.
Love itself compensates for any diminishment.
The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of love.
Withholding love is a form of self-sabotage, as what we withhold from others we are withholding from ourselves.
Trying to suppress or eradicate symptoms on the physical level can be extremely important, but there's more to healing than that; dealing with psychological, emotional and spiritual issues involved in treating sickness is equally important.
Obviously, our political system is profoundly corrupted by, among other things, the influence of money. But, at a deeper level, the current structure is flawed because it looks to citizens for only two things - votes and money. I don't think we will see any healing until citizens are viewed in a whole new way.
You may believe that you are responsible for what you do, but not for what you think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you think, because it is only at this level that you can exercise choice. What you do comes from what you think.
Dear God, Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send, dear Lord, the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen.
You have tremendous gifts to give; God sent them with you when you came to this earth. And while you might forget them, or doubt they exist, God does not forget and He will show them to you. As soon as your gifts are dedicated to His work, they will blossom. Chains that might have held you back for years will dissolve. And you will feel free. You will learn that your spirit is bigger than your circumstances, as soon as you put your spirit first.
When we are centered in joy, we attain our wisdom.
If your eyes were open to all the beauty in the world, you would be overwhelmed with joy.
God is the electricity and we are the lamps.
