Let Go Let God with Honesty

I face life honestly, and I am free.

At times we may feel afraid to be our authentic selves, to expose our real thoughts and feelings for fear of rejection. We may even approach prayer with this same fear. But if we hide our real thoughts, beliefs, and longings, we separate ourselves from God and from others. We needn’t fear being who we truly are. The self that we try to hide and keep in the background is a worthy and wonderful expression of God. When we approach prayer with trust and honesty, we find release and peace. Light shines into the dark corners of our mind and heart. Our honest prayer for guidance never goes unanswered. Our honest prayer for understanding is heard. Our honest prayer for Truth sets us free.
 
The truth will make you free.—John 8:32

Let Go Let God with Confidence

I take action to manifest my highest good.

Because I have faith in God, I have faith in myself. I have all the tools I need to achieve my dreams, for God within me is all-wise, all-knowing, all-conquering Spirit. Through the power of God, I transcend any appearance of lack or limitation. If I feel I need more patience, more perseverance, more understanding, or if I want to become a more loving person, Spirit will reveal to me what I must do to succeed and grow. Through prayer, I draw upon the spirit of God for answers, and I move forward with confidence. I take action to manifest my highest good. As I keep my mind and heart open to inspiration and guidance, my faith in God increases and so does my faith in myself.
 
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.—Psalm 37:5

Let Go Let God on this Journey

I am fulfilled on my life’s journey.

When I am at a crossroads, what do I do? Do I take the familiar path or the one less traveled? Whichever path I choose, I make a commitment to enjoy the journey. All paths lead me to, and through, new adventures. Even when I am not making major life decisions, I enjoy my daily path. Whether I am going to work, to church, or to school, whether I am on vacation or performing a routine task, I remind myself to enjoy all life has to offer. I look around and see the good that abounds. As I do, I experience new joys I might otherwise have missed. With each new day, I experience fulfillment on my life’s journey.
 
I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live.—Ecclesiastes 3:12

Let Go Let God in Prosperity

I affirm my divine inheritance and claim my good.

Being prosperity-minded means realizing the merit of my spiritual inheritance. I am abundantly blessed with the gifts of Spirit—life, understanding, power, love, imagination, and strength, to name a few. If ever I am concerned about the depth of my spiritual heritage, I tune in to the Silence and let Divine Mind lead me to my good. I affirm my spiritual birthright and accept my divine legacy of good. I am Divine Life. I am Divine Power. I am Divine Love. These powerful declarations of Truth activate a prosperity consciousness within me, spawning a life of balance, wholeness, and well-being.
 
We always pray for you, asking that our God will make you worthy of his call and will fulfill by his power every good resolve.—2 Thessalonians 1:11

Let Go Let God with Tribute

I honor the courage and selfless service of those who gave to our country.

Many nations and cultures set aside a day to pay tribute to those who have sacrificed for the common good. With deep respect, I honor those who have served courageously to preserve our safety and security. In quiet moments of thankful prayer, I inwardly honor those who have served our nation. I honor them outwardly by allowing their example to inspire my own endeavors. As I pay homage to the courage and generosity of others who came before me, I also appreciate those qualities in myself and the people I care about. I am grateful for the willingness of people everywhere to give of themselves, creating a better world for all.
 
If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it.—1 Corinthians 12:26

Let Go Let God in Wholeness

Wholeness is always present.

I am a divine expression of God—whole, strong, resilient, and vitally alive. Made in the image and likeness of God, I have the capacity to heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually. When a health challenge arises in me or someone I care about, I visualize wholeness in the midst of the situation and affirm a mighty healing. I know any illness or injury is temporary, while the immanence of God is permanent. In prayer and meditation, I picture God’s healing energy in every cell and organ. I affirm wholeness. The life of God flows through me and through those I love. In God, we are whole and healed.
 
The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.—Matthew 6:22

Let Go Let God with Flexibility

I am open and flexible in every situation.

When I watch trees swaying in the breeze, I am reminded of the importance of being flexible. If it were not for flexibility, the trees would break at the first gust of wind. I, too, must be flexible—in my expectations, my attitudes, and my view of the world. By being flexible, I open myself to new ideas and opportunities. I do not resist growth, progress, or change. Instead, when challenging situations arise, I bend with the winds of change and I am flexible. As I gain a new appreciation of the world around me and everyone in it, I thrive and grow. With flexibility, I sway in the breezes of life.
 
You should rather open your hand, willingly lending enough to meet the need, whatever it may be. —Deuteronomy 15:8

Let Go Let God Provide Guidance

I am receptive to infinite wisdom.

Whether I invite a particular change or it seems thrust on me, change is unsettling. “What should I do?” “What can I do?” I may ask. While advice from others may be helpful, it might also lead me to overthink until I am even more confused. I turn within to shed divine light on the subject. Going deeper than surface appearances, I become receptive to infinite wisdom. I quiet my thinking mind, and in the stillness, I allow my intuition to be awakened. I know the answers are within me, and I wait for them to unfold. With clarity and calm, I summon the courage to act on the divine guidance I receive. I am thankful for a greater good unfolding through me now.
 
You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me with honor.—Psalm 73:24

Let Go Let God Pray for Others

I pray for others, knowing they are divinely supported.

When people I care about are facing tough circumstances, ill health, or challenging relationships, it may seem overwhelming. With my mind and heart centered on God, I remember that each spiritual being is on an eternal life journey. Difficult circumstances can lead to a deeper awareness of God’s indwelling presence and power. The presence of God is more powerful than any temporary life condition. God moves in, through, and as every person. With gratitude, I affirm that my family, friends, and coworkers are divinely supported through every challenge. I affirm they are guided by God’s wisdom and enfolded in divine love. For this truth, I am grateful.
 
I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers.—Ephesians 1:16

Let Go Let God in Generosity

I give lovingly and generously.

True generosity means giving without expectation of reward. The blessing comes from the act of giving itself. Sharing my time, talent, and treasure with others is a pleasure, and I do it lovingly and generously. Being kind and friendly, being cheerful, listening with compassion, letting someone know they are not alone—these are the most generous gifts I can share. When giving is backed by wisdom and love, it is a divine blessing. As I give, I become a channel through which God’s gifts express in the world. The blessings of God are abundant—so I give without reservation, allowing God to express through me in generous and loving ways.
 
A generous person will be enriched.—Proverbs 11:25

Let Go Let God Be Free

I am free to realize my unlimited potential.

Feelings of unworthiness or self-doubt can cripple our ability to cope with life’s challenges. If I recognize low self-esteem in myself, I take back my power by changing my pattern of thinking. I realize that doubt and worry are nothing but thoughts. I imagine scooping these thoughts up with a bubble wand and gently waving them into the air. I am relieved as I watch them drift away and disappear into nothingness. Divine Love frees me from limiting thoughts. It is unconditional love, my ballast through every circumstance.
I have the power to choose my feelings and thoughts. So today, I choose peace, worthiness, and joy. I claim freedom from limitation and realize my full potential.
 
Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble.—Psalm 119:165

Let Go Let God in Harmony

In harmony of mind and purpose, our differences fall away.

Though one ant alone may be unable to rebuild a damaged anthill, the whole colony working together can move a mountain of dirt. Likewise, many people collaborating toward a common goal can accomplish seeming miracles. In the wake of a storm, we pick up the pieces together. When floodwaters submerge a community, we work as neighbors to clean up and rebuild. Nations help nations when human needs are greater than divisions or boundaries. As we work in harmony, differences fall away and strangers become friends. My earnest prayer is for harmony of mind and purpose in times of greatest need as well as times of joy.
 
I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, … that you be united in the same mind and the same purpose.—1 Corinthians 1:10

Let Go Let God with the New Dawn

I am filled with the spirit of God.

As I open my eyes to the morning light, I am rested, renewed, and ready for a new day—a day filled with hope and promise. I am filled with the spirit of God. How will today be different from yesterday or the day before? While I may travel the same roads, see the same people, or do the same kind of work, I am open to seeing life from a fresh, new perspective. I awaken to spiritual awareness. Mindful of the activity of God in my life, I am receptive to a new idea, whether it appears as a slow dawning or a flash of inspiration. I revel in divine discovery. The spirit of God guides my every step and breathes life into each sacred moment.
 
The Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you.—John 14:26

Let Go Let God in Divine Order

I open my heart to love and my life to divine order.

Though I intend to love others as myself, when I conflict with someone, I might consider him or her an adversary. I could, however, see them differently. I pause and ask myself, How else might I view our relationship? This person may be my teacher in some way. What am I to learn from him or her? I open my mind to a different possibility. I open my heart to acceptance. As I broaden my perspective, I become a radiant expression of unconditional love. I love even in the presence of conflict. No matter what the other person intended, I intend to see God’s goodness. Through this changed perspective, divine order prevails. I look for the good, for the gift. I love and I live a “divine order” life.
 
Even though you intended to do harm to me, God intended it for good.—Genesis 50:20

Let Go Let God Be Protected

In God, I live, move, and have my being.

I am sheltered by the presence of God within. The more I consciously center myself in the Presence, the more I feel safe and protected. What is there to fear when I know that wherever I am, God is? What is there to worry about when I know that God is working through me as the Spirit of wisdom, power, and intelligence? God guides me as I listen with awareness and follow my intuition. Even in the middle of a difficult situation, I trust the wisdom of God to help and protect me. God is my shield in all circumstances. In God, I live, move, and have my being, and I am safe.
 
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.—Psalm 18:2

Let Go Let God in Comfort

I am never apart from God’s love and comfort.

We cannot be where God is not. God is in the darkness and the light; at the peak of the highest mountain and in the deepest cave; in the raging storm and the gentle breeze. I may think I am separate from God—but in Truth, God is here with me. With a thought, a prayer, or the awakening of my heart, I become aware of the loving presence of Spirit. In this very moment, I am comforted as peace washes over me. I am enfolded in divine, unconditional love, safe, and protected. When I am ready, I will consider what is next; but for now, I rest in the Presence.
 
If I take the wings of the morning and settle at the farthest limits of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me fast.—Psalm 139:9-10

Let Go Let God in Joy

The kingdom of heaven within is my treasure and joy.

Everyone delights in finding hidden treasure. Whether a child discovers coins buried in a sandbox or an adult stumbles upon a priceless antique in the attic—finding unexpected wealth is joyous! The greatest treasure, however, isn’t hidden at all. It is the kingdom of heaven within. God’s abiding presence brings treasures of love, wholeness, and life. Joy comes from discovering God as my source of wisdom, strength, and joy. God’s limitless supply meets every need. This is treasure indeed! I need not search for happiness on the outside when the kingdom of heaven is here on the inside.
 
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.—Matthew 13:44

Let Go Let God Be EasyGoing

I am calm and easygoing.

Life can be busy, but rather than rushing from one activity to another, I remind myself, “Easy does it.” I remember to slow down and fully savor each moment of my life. Throughout the day, I give myself breathing space by pausing frequently for a few minutes of prayer and meditation. Bringing my awareness within, I notice my breath as it becomes steady and calm. Even in a brief moment of quiet, I sense the presence of God within me. I am enfolded in holiness, resting in Spirit. This small break helps me relax and open to the joy of being alive. I am aware, awake, and in the flow as I continue with my day in an easygoing manner.
 
Those who listen to me will be secure and will live at ease.—Proverbs 1:33

Let Go Let God Provide Healing

I am healthy in mind, body, and spirit.

Good health is important to me. I want to feel, do, and be my best mentally, physically, and spiritually. One key to my good health is prayer. In quiet moments of communion with God, I open myself to wisdom, power, and inspiration. I visualize God’s life within me as healthy cells, creative thoughts, and vital energy. The life of God animates and regenerates my body, mind, and spirit. It is the life force that keeps me strong. If health challenges arise, I meet each one with faith and understanding. Proper nutrition, ample rest, and daily prayer are all part of my health plan. I trust the spirit of God within to lead me to right actions and optimum health.
 
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you?—1 Corinthians 6:19

Let Go Let God Provide a Mother's Blessing

May all mothers be blessed with love and appreciation.

I bless mothers and all who give from their hearts to care for children. Love is essential for a child to thrive and grow, and today we celebrate and honor maternal love. With gratitude in my heart, I bring to mind my own mother or a motherly figure. I give thanks for the one who nurtured and guided me, stood by me through difficulties, shaped me into the person I am today. Connected by a love that transcends time, distance, and circumstance, we are one in the love of God, forever linked and blessed. Mothers of the world, may you be blessed knowing you are loved and appreciated. God is the source from which all love emanates, and you are an expression of God’s love as you tend to those in your care.
 
I will bless her, and she shall give rise to nations.–Genesis 17:16

Let Go Let God Provide Answers

I am open to divine ideas.

If I am struggling to find a solution to a troublesome problem, I might feel stuck with no seemingly viable options. But as Albert Einstein once said: “Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them.” To stop churning over the problem and see the situation from a higher perspective, I pause for a break; I step away to do something fun or creative. Initially, it may seem irresponsible to focus on having fun at a critical time. Yet engaging in playful pursuits can refresh and relax my mind, opening me to divine ideas. No longer tense from straining for answers, I create space for divine solutions to arise in my awareness.
 
Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path.—Psalm 27:11

Let Go Let God Envision World Peace

I envision peace, harmony, and love for all people.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu once said, “Let us come together and be one; let us be people of peace; let us be people of harmony.” These words are a gentle reminder of the importance of working together for peace. We are all members of the global community, united on this glorious planet. As part of the world community, I have a responsibility to be a person of peace. In my daily life, I listen, learn, and share with honesty and kindness. I allow peace and love to express through me as the thoughts I hold, the questions I ponder, the words I use, and the actions I take. I am an ambassador of peace in the world, affirming peace and harmony for all people.
 
Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding.—Romans 14:19

Let Go Let God Forgive

My heart opens as I forgive.

In my prayer time, I realize I cannot forgive with a hardened heart. Whatever wrong I perceive has hurt me, I know forgiveness is the path to healing. Divine Love is the great solvent. It softens all hardened conditions of mind and heart. I open myself to divine love and allow it to heal me. I begin by visualizing each of us entering the world as an innocent babe. Beneath any hurt, fear, or judgment, we are still that pure Essence of Being. Opening my heart, I connect my pure Essence to that of others. I speak a simple prayer, “May you be blessed.” I release each wound to the forgiving, healing power of Divine Love. With a softened heart, I welcome my good—the peace of forgiveness.
 
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.—Matthew 5:8

Let Go Let God with Inner Peace

I am at peace.

I am at peace. These words quiet my thoughts and soothe my mind. I speak them softly to myself, feeling their gentle vibration move through my body. Tension melts away. I am still; I am at peace. I draw on the peace of the Christ Presence by focusing inward. The true source of inner peace is always within me. Consciously attuned to this center of peace, I release any concerns about the outer world. I let go of fear, pain, and expectations of others. I drop any worry about my responsibilities, knowing I will return to them refreshed and reenergized. I willingly and gratefully accept the peace of the indwelling Christ and carry it with me throughout this day.
 
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives.—John 14:27

Tuesday, May 7, 2013

Let Go, Let God

All I need is fulfilled in God.

I may not always know where my path leads, but I can be sure that God is with me. I release my need to know every turn my route will take. I trust the indwelling spirit of God to lead me. If I am concerned about family or friends, I let it go. Worry is unnecessary. God is in every life circumstance as peace, love, wisdom, and understanding. I don’t need to comprehend every detail. I trust that hearts and minds are open to divine ideas and God’s grace. My role is to pray and have faith in right outcomes for myself and others. All we need is fulfilled in God. In prayer, I let go and let God.
 
I will lead the blind by a road they do not know, by paths they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground.—Isaiah 42:16

Monday, May 6, 2013

Let Go Let God With Faith

With faith in God, I act with ease and confidence.
 
Faith is the assurance that, even in uncertain circumstances, all is unfolding as it should. In faith, I move confidently through each day. Faith is an innate understanding that God and I are one. If I temporarily forget this truth, I turn within in prayer. Prayer revives my understanding and illumines the way to greater success. With faith, I can do all things. With faith, I am whole in body, mind, and spirit. With faith, I know that nothing is impossible. Whatever my goals or aspirations, I accomplish them through faith in the power of God within me. My faith is solid, for God is my strength, my understanding, and my constant companion.

What is seen was made from things that are not visible.—Hebrews 11:3

Let Go Let God with Expansiveness

I expand my vision to see unlimited possibilities.

I see beyond the parameters I have accepted in the past, to behold a world of unlimited possibilities. As my vision expands, I create space for more good, more love, more giving, more opportunities, and more spiritual understanding. Intellectually, I know my spirit is unlimited. As I study and practice spiritual principles, my awareness of the Christ within me expands as well. I accept and express more of my divine nature. I embrace my full potential as I navigate through life. I realize greater clarity of purpose and new ways to contribute my gifts to bless others. I am open and receptive as I journey along the path Jesus showed was possible for us all.
 
Raise your eyes now, and look from the place where you are …; for all the land that you see I will give to you.–Genesis 13:14-15

Saturday, May 4, 2013

Let Go Let God with Patience

I patiently learn what life has to teach me.

Sometimes I wish life would be like an elevator lifting me to new heights easily and effortlessly. My only job would be to enjoy the ride to the top. But life is more like a stairway—and my role is to take it one step at a time, learning and growing as I go. When an obstacle emerges, big or small, I pause and pay attention. What can I learn from this? Problems create opportunities when I am willing to explore them. Every setback or stumbling block is my teacher. I trust the process of life that expands my consciousness to new ways of understanding. I am grateful, patient, and open to learning.
 
My brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of any kind, consider it nothing but joy, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.—James 1:2-3

Let Go Let God with Kindness

Many are blessed by a single act of kindness.

When I observe someone being kind to another person, there are three simultaneous benefits. The person receiving the kindness feels cared for and valued. The person expressing the kindness feels the joy of giving, and of having a positive impact on another’s life. But there is a third beneficiary of this encounter—me! When I observe an act of kindness, love and hope spring up in me. As I watch the interaction between the giver and receiver, I, too, am blessed. With this in mind, I choose to uplift others. I demonstrate kindness, consideration, compassion, and patience—gifts from the heart—knowing the effects ripple out to bless unseen others.
 
The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness.—Galatians 5:22

Thursday, May 2, 2013

Let Go Let God with Intention

I set an intention to create the life of my dreams.

When I set an intention, I put feet under my prayers, aligning my desires and actions with the power of God within. Whether I want to reach a certain goal, nurture a new friendship, or experience inner peace, I know that by thinking, speaking, and acting with intention, the manifestation has begun. Taking my intention into a sacred time of prayer and visioning, I focus on experiencing my highest good. Positive feelings infuse my mind, body, and soul. I am uplifted by an energy of gratitude stirring within me. The foundation has been laid for realizing my heart’s desires. I use intention as a powerful tool to create the life of my dreams.
 
Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.—Psalm 37:4

Let Go Let God Be Fortunate

My fortune lies in the eternal flow of God’s love.

My fortune is not in a bank or a portfolio. It is not even in the most breathtaking view of nature or the melody of the sweetest song. Although I am grateful for every tangible gift that enriches my life, I claim an eternal fortune greater than any material good.
My fortune lies in knowing that I am one with God. This knowing is my assurance of infinite supply, ever-present healing life, and unconditional love enfolding me and those I care about. I do not fear my fortune will be lost, stolen, or destroyed for it is part of who I am. I am a child of the Divine Creator, forever in the flow of love.
 
Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.—Matthew 6:20
