Let Go Let God Bless Teachers

I Bless And Give Thanks For Teachers.

Teachers change the world by opening the minds of their students, expanding their horizons and creating new paths of possibility and achievement. Teachers sow seeds of creativity that blossom into inspiring thoughts and kindled imaginations. I bless teachers with my prayers for their patience, inspiration, and understanding. I see them supported in their efforts and appreciated for their expertise and dedication. In gratitude, I remember those teachers who helped me become the person I am, who recognized and nurtured my gifts and helped me master necessary skills. I bless and give thanks for the teachers who are guiding today’s students to reach their potential and live their dreams.

May my teaching drop like the rain, my speech condense like the dew; like gentle rain on grass, like showers on new growth.—Deuteronomy 32:2

Let Go Let God With Imagination

I Imagine And Create Wonderful Blessings In My Life. 

Throughout history, there have been many dreamers who have written inspirational novels and poetry, produced inventions that have benefited the world, and created magnificent works of art. The imagination that led those dreamers to create such works also lives in me. My capacity to imagine is boundless, giving me unlimited power to think, plan, envision, and learn. How I choose to use my imagination is up to me. It may be through words I speak or write to express myself. It may be through my hands as I plant and nurture a prolific garden or prepare a delicious meal. It may be through my heart as I make a difference in the world by serving others. The important thing is to use my imagination in fulfilling ways. The possibilities are endless.

If there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.—Philippians 4:8

Let Go Let God In Awareness

The World Feels New As I Grow In Awareness. 

Spending time in mindful contemplation increases my awareness of my surroundings. As I concentrate and focus my attention, I shut out distractions and settle my unquiet mind. My world begins to feel brighter, vibrant, and more alive as I notice the soft sounds and minute textures and colors I overlooked before. Spending time in prayer increases my awareness of God’s goodness, which I share with others when I am patient and kind, generous and forgiving. This goodness returns to me as kindness and gentleness in the people I meet and ease and grace in all the places I go. The world has not changed, but I have. My awareness of God in and as my life has opened my eyes and ears, my mind, and my heart.

Open my eyes, so that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.—Psalm 119:18

Let Go, Let God

My Steps Are Assured When I Access My Inner Guidance.

It is all too easy to become anxious while facing the unknown. I might worry about what may happen or fret over situations even after I have done everything possible to ensure the best outcomes. Fear is a natural and understandable detour on any expedition into the unknown, but if I stay there, it can block my path and keep me stuck in place. Whenever I find myself arriving at a place of uncertainty, I pause, taking an opportunity to relax and recenter with a deep, cleansing breath. Divine energy flows freely as my faith arises, readying me to move forward. Exhaling and releasing worry, new avenues of exploration become visible. I relax and let go, feeling a deep and abiding trust. I proceed with quiet confidence, my inner guidance leading me to my next best step.

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.—Psalm 56:3

Let Go Let God Share Compassion

My Compassionate Heart Blesses Others. 

I am grateful for my loving heart that prompts me to reach out in kindness and compassion to bolster the spirits of others. The more I choose compassion, the more easily it becomes a habit. My actions don’t have to be especially grand. I can open a door or pay for the order of the person behind me or at a drive-up window. Listening, holding a hand, and giving a pat on the back are also simple yet sincere expressions of compassion. In helping others, I am blessed by the reciprocal effect of giving, and good flows to me abundantly. Every act of kindheartedness, no matter how small, creates a ripple effect that inspires kindness and generosity in others and ultimately blesses the world.

In everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets.—Matthew 7:12

Let Go Let God Forgive

I Forgive And Am Set Free. 

Withholding forgiveness is like locking myself in a prison cell and holding the key. I may think I’m punishing another, but in truth I’m punishing myself. Today I choose to free myself from the prison of my own making by practicing forgiveness. Forgiving does not require me to forget what caused me pain, but it means I can accept what happened and move beyond it. The moment I am willing to forgive, Spirit within helps lift and empower me through the process of releasing and healing. Realizing that forgiveness will take as long as necessary, I commit to keep at it. Even the initial willingness to forgive helps reduce the lingering effects of my pain and leads me on the path to peace.

Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.—Colossians 3:13

Let Go Let God Trust

I Trust In God. 

In the past I may have placed my trust in someone or something that let me down, making it hard for me to trust again. I have learned from those experiences that I should place my trust not in the things of the world but in God, the one presence and one power in the universe. I place my trust in the abundant love of infinite spirit. I commit myself to a deepening trust in God, and as I do, I can feel God’s love blessing my heart and mind. I anchor my faith in that abiding quality of limitless love and light. I acknowledge the presence of God in all things, always. Through my trust in God, I see others in a new light and open myself to forgive and release the past. My trust in God heals my heart.

O Israel, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield.—Psalm 115:9

Let Go Let God Release

My Heart Is Light As I Release Old Thoughts And Practices. 

When I clean out my closet, I let go of what I no longer want or need. Putting my things in order helps me feel free and gives me a feeling of possibility. I remember this feeling when I consider my life’s path. I may discover that I want to leave certain behaviors or ways of thinking behind. As I release old thoughts or habits that no longer serve me, I open to new ways of being, to joy and peace, to purpose and fulfillment. I feel liberated and energized. Letting go feels good and immediately lightens my spirit. I release old burdens that weigh me down. I let go of feelings that bind me to the past. I feel healed in my mind, body, and soul. I am ready to move forward with a light and peaceful heart.

I have just released you today from the fetters on your hands.—Jeremiah 40:4

Let Go Let God Through Faith

I Build My Life On A Firm Bedrock Of Faith. 

The power to shape my destiny lies within me through the power of my faith. If I catch myself believing disempowering things about myself, I stop, reevaluate my beliefs, and proceed on a new, surer path. My belief in an unlimited future begins with how I see myself. I call upon my divine faculties of imagination, strength, and zeal to see myself achieving everything I set out to do and be, endowed with the perseverance and enthusiasm to make it happen. A solid foundation of faith, knowing of my innate divinity, is my guiding light, my touchstone. I believe in myself, and my belief in my oneness with divine mind is unwavering.

Now therefore revere the Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness; put away the gods that your ancestors served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.—Joshua 24:14

Let Go Let God Take Inspiration

I Move In Harmony With The Creative Flow Of Inspiration. 

Sometimes I feel inspired by the words of others, and sometimes I am inspired more by action. Today I take my inspiration from the story of Charles Fillmore, a businessman who marveled at his wife’s complete healing from serious illness. This prompted him to embark upon an intense period of prayer, meditation, and study that led to a global spiritual community. I take this story to heart and find my inspiration in my feelings of awe and wonder, love, or even healthy curiosity. Feeling an awakening of inspiration within me, I center my awareness in God. Divinely inspired, I move in harmony with the creative flow that blesses the work of my mind, my heart, and my hands.

But truly it is the spirit in a mortal, the breath of the Almighty, that makes for understanding.—Job 32:8

Let Go Let God Share Inner Peace

My Peace Comes From God Within. 

I am filled with the awareness of peace. I feel the presence of God in and all around me. It warms and calms me as I sit in the Silence or prepare to start my day. I take this peace out into the world with me today. It is my gift to share with everyone I meet. The peace of God flows outward from me. Others may not realize why they feel sudden tranquility uplifting them. I say nothing; I just smile as I go about my day. This wonderful peaceful presence within me can never be diminished or exhausted because it is unlimited and mine to share freely. I also receive it in great measure. It overflows my heart and suffuses my entire being. The whole world feels peaceful to me. God is here, inner peace is here. All is truly well.

Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.”—John 20:21

Let Go Let God Behold The Unlimited

With God, I Am Unlimited. 

Some days limitations may seem to surround me. Maybe I have too much to do and not enough time to do it all. Other times, it may seem like I don’t have what I need to get started toward a goal. At times like these, I step back from the matters of the world and remember there is no limitation in God. As a child of God, I, too, am unlimited. The divine ideas I claim in prayer align me with the truth of God, and my faith helps me realize that truly all things are possible. Accepting these truths makes me more receptive to possibilities. I hold positive, creative thoughts that nurture my dreams. I behold the unlimited Christ essence in myself and in all people as I pray for peace, prosperity, comfort, and lives well-lived.

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.—Philippians 4:13

Let Go Let God Be Free

I Am Free To Be The Best Me I Can Be. 

If I long for the feeling of freedom, I look first to myself. It does me no good to wish something outside myself could make me feel free. It truly is an inside job. Through the spirit of God within me, I free myself from doubt, insecurity, hesitation, and anything else I may have let hold me back. Thinking small limits my life and locks me in a prison of my own making. Today my world expands as I leave thoughts of inadequacy and doubt behind. I choose instead to believe the best about myself. I am confident, courageous, and strong. I am free to take steps to create the life of my dreams. An exciting future awaits me, and I boldly take my place in it. I am ready to live my life to the fullest.

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.—John 8:32

Let Go Let God With Positive Thoughts

My Positive Thoughts Create My World. 

I create my life through the power of my thoughts. My positive thoughts bless my life with peace, prosperity, and wholeness. But sometimes I may experience more discord, lack, and ill health. Rather than worry or wish things could be different, I return to my thoughts. I accept the conditions I see but keep my thoughts aligned with a more enduring truth. When faced with chaos, I affirm: The peace of God is mine. When confronted with insufficient supply, I affirm: I am part of God’s abundant universe, and all my needs are met. If I feel ill, I affirm: I am made in the image and likeness of God, and I am whole. I am so grateful to keep God in my thoughts.

O Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our ancestors, keep forever such purposes and thoughts in the hearts of your people, and direct their hearts toward you.—1 Chronicles 29:18

Let Go Let God Be Tender

I Am Tender With Myself And All Others. 

The world can feel harsh and unforgiving sometimes. I can find relief and withdraw for a time, touching deep peace in prayer and other times of quiet contemplation. But what can I do to feel peaceful when I return my attention to the world? I can use my peaceful feelings to move gently through life, treating myself and all others tenderly. I try tenderness to slow the frantic pace and soothe the frazzled nerves so often caused by modern life. Consideration and kindness are at the heart of tender living. I soften my words, those I speak to others as well as my self-talk. I look for ways to ease another’s way and extend patience and grace to those who may be struggling. With a full and gentle heart, I am tender.

Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love for one another, a tender heart, and a humble mind.—1 Peter 3:8

Let Go Let God Affirm Healing

I Am Strong And Sound In Spirit. 

To be healed is to feel renewed physically and mentally. I am grateful to be a spiritual being, blessed with strength and wisdom, renewed at the level of Spirit. I affirm my health and wholeness now. I picture my body imbued with unlimited energy—divine energy—that passes into and through every atom, cell, tissue, and organ of my body. I also see myself as calm and serene knowing that God is with me and within me. My body is vital and my mind is at peace. I give thanks for the divine energy that continuously flows in and through me, keeping me strong. This strength fills my mind and body. Through Spirit within, I am faith-filled and healed. My body’s response to this powerful truth is positive and wondrous.

Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.”—Mark 10:52

Let Go Let God Live In Joy

I Say Yes To The Joy That Invites Me In This Moment. 

Joy is the call of my heart. Whether I am at work or at play, I bring a spirit of joyfulness to everything I do. More than a mood or an attitude, joy is part of me and mine to live and to share. Like all aspects of my divine identity, joy flowers in my consciousness when I hold joyful thoughts and feelings. I express my joy as the excitement of anticipation, fascination at a new discovery, deep satisfaction in a relationship, and the tranquil glow from communing with God in prayer. My joy is contagious, and I love to share in it. I have feelings of joy when I take part in a friend’s or family member’s joyous moments, their celebrations and accomplishments. I feel quiet joy when I offer encouragement and even when I give comfort, grateful to share the care and love of God.

Rejoice always.—1 Thessalonians 5:16

Let Go Let God Anything Is Possible

Anything Is Possible When I Trust In God. 

With God, I can truly do anything. If someone were to tell me that my goal is unreasonable, I would simply smile because I know a deeper truth. When I believe in the divine power within me, all things are not only reasonable but achievable! My faith is not shaken by what other people think or say. I keep my spiritual vision focused on moving toward my highest good. No matter where I am in life, it is always possible for me to move beyond present appearances to something better. What once might have been unimaginable is now firmly within my grasp. Realizing my true potential comes from believing in the divine presence within me. With God, all things are possible.

Jesus looked at them and said, “For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all things are possible.”—Mark 10:27

Let Go Let God Comfort

The Comforting Love Of God Is Always With Me. 

The love of God is my comfort throughout all the seasons of my life. I see this clearly as I recall times of joy and sorrow, stability and change, and plenty and scarcity. Through it all, God’s love has been my constant, enduring source of comfort. Moving and growing through my challenges and unwelcome changes have made me more aware of my need for the comforting love of God. Just knowing that God is always with me is a comfort that keeps me going in bad times and makes the good times in life even better. God’s love is my safest place, the refuge that gives me the courage to try something new, even if I’m afraid of failing. It gives me the courage to risk my heart, even if I’m afraid of losing. God’s comforting love keeps me feeling safe forever.

I will turn their mourning into joy, I will comfort them, and give them gladness for sorrow.—Jeremiah 31:13

Let Go Let God Be Playful

I Am A Radiating Center Of Joy And Jubilation. 

I focus today on an energy of playfulness, choosing to discover joy on every journey. Looking on the lighter side allows me to complete tasks with ease, sooner than expected, with free time available for relaxation. I take full advantage of this opportunity to do things I enjoy. Concentrating my energy on finding fun sparks my creativity, and new ideas flow easily. My step is lighter, and each hour that passes seems more meaningful and precious. Everywhere I go, I share a smile or joke with as many people as I can, watching with delight as those feelings of gladness create waves of cheer that have everyone feeling buoyed and joyful. Work becomes a playful endeavor, smiles multiply, and with an attitude of appreciation, good humor grows!

Moreover, it is God’s gift that all should eat and drink and take pleasure in all their toil.—Ecclesiastes 3:13

Let Go Let God Prepare

I Make Space In My World For God. 

I read in the Book of Isaiah, “Prepare the way of the Lord,” and wonder what this may mean for my life. In moments spent in prayerful contemplation, I am creating a sacred space deep within myself that prepares my way. I am making room, in my heart and mind, for a fuller awareness of God. Decluttering my mind of busy thoughts is like cleaning my house for an honored guest. I open myself to the realization of indwelling Spirit. As I practice the presence of God, I live, love, and serve from a consciousness of oneness with all life. I am a positive influence on the world around me and love to do good works.

All who cleanse themselves of the things I have mentioned will become special utensils, dedicated and useful to the owner of the house, ready for every good work.—2 Timothy 2:21

Let Go Let God Through Grace

Grace Gives Me Room To Roam And A Welcoming Place To Return. 

My progress along my spiritual journey has not always been smooth and predictable. There have been times when busyness and distraction have pulled me away from my spiritual practices or I have clung to beliefs that no longer fit my growing spiritual understanding. I may have even experienced a crisis of faith that has left me wondering why I believe as I do. And yet, I return to my path, resume my practices, and regain my faith through the gift of grace. Sometimes I need to step away from what I have always done and believed. This distance allows me to feel my way into a new way of doing and believing. Through grace, I am free to question and explore, knowing I am always at home in the heart of God.

By the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me has not been in vain.—1 Corinthians 15:10

Let Go Let God See World Peace

A River Of Peace Flows Freely Throughout The World. 

One of my favorite hymns contains the line “I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.” Today, as I think of world peace, I see it as a river, flowing freely from person to person, community to community, and country to country, filling hearts and souls and providing an avenue for understanding and compassion. Just as a river winds and flows, the ways to achieve peace continue to evolve. Needs and goals may change, populations may require different resources, and leaders may come and go. When minds and hearts are open to peace, a flow of ideas and solutions leads to a common good. When people are willing to work together for peace and harmony, we come together to bless the world.

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.—Psalm 46:4

Let Go Let God Feel Protected

Through My Oneness With God, I Feel Protected. 

Sometimes I may feel at the mercy of a changing, tumultuous world I cannot control. This is never true. Even though the chaos of the world may swirl around me, at the center of my being is a place of perfect peace and calm. Whenever I am in need of a safe refuge, I turn to God within to reach this place of tranquility and reclaim my feeling of security and protection. The sun always rises after the longest, darkest night. I remind myself of this truth and feel grateful as I allow the light of spiritual understanding to release and reclaim whatever power I may have unwittingly given to a fear-based thought. Fully in tune with the divine presence within me, I move safely and confidently through every challenging circumstance. 

The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.—1 John 4:4

Let Go Let God Awaken To Prosperity

My Positive Thoughts Lead Me To Abundant Blessings. 

My prosperity consciousness springs from my appreciation of the blessings in my life. Through my growing awareness, I awaken to goodness everywhere around me and invite more of it into my life. I am attracted to abundance like a magnet. I carry a spirit of gratitude for everything the day will bring. Throughout my day, I view each event as an opportunity to grow and to give. I end my day by coming full circle, giving thanks for each blessing and jotting the day’s happenings in a gratitude journal. My positive attitude aligns with prosperity. The good thoughts and expectations I hold lead me to blessings and opportunities. With each passing day, I find ever-deeper security and joy.

So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance—like the sand of the sea—that he stopped measuring it; it was beyond measure.—Genesis 41:49

Friday, August 6, 2021

Let Go Let God With Wisdom

My God-Inspired Thoughts, Decisions, And Actions Are Wise. 

Today I mindfully and intentionally use my gift of divine wisdom to help create a better, kinder world. I let my inner wisdom guide me. I focus my thoughts on positive ideas. I choose my words with care, seeking to bless and brighten those who hear or read them. I act with kindness and consideration in every encounter with my friends, neighbors, and even those I don’t know. God’s wisdom is mine to share. I accept that truth as a sacred responsibility to uplift and heal the world through my wise words and actions.

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits.—James 3:17

Let Go Let God Trust In Divine Order

I Trust In The Process Of Divine Order.

In nature, divine order is all around me. I notice the changing seasons, the phases of the moon, even the daily movement of the sun across the sky. Every part of the natural world follows an orderly pattern. My life may not be as predictable, but it, too, is unfolding in an orderly way. I remember this when I begin to feel impatient that my aspirations feel far away or the help or inspiration I need to go forward will never come. At moments like these, I pause and affirm divine order. I focus my attention on what is before me and release my concern about the future. I do not succumb to feelings of frustration or the temptation to rush the process of manifestation. I feel my connection to God and relax as I trust in divine order.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.—Ecclesiastes 3:1

Let Go Let God Pray For Others

I Hold A Vision Of Good As I Pray For Others. 

It’s only natural to sympathize with those who open up to me and share heartfelt concerns. As I listen deeply, I may sense worry and grief, yet I put my response to those feelings aside as I begin to pray. In stillness, I touch the presence and light of indwelling Spirit. In this space, I know the truth of those I am holding in prayer. I claim wholeness, prosperity, and peace as all thoughts of lack and inharmony fade from my mind. Beholding these truths allows me to hold a faith-filled vision of peace and plenty that their highest good is manifesting before any tangible evidence exists. I am grateful for the power of prayer as I release all results in faith. 

Pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of the righteous is powerful and effective.—James 5:16

Let Go Let God Follow Guidance

The Divine In Me Knows The Way To Go.

If I ever feel uneasy wondering which way to turn or if I’m afraid of making the wrong choice, I simply stay centered in the awareness of the Christ presence within and follow its guidance. When I wonder what my next step might be, I pause. Breathing deeply, I relax. If stress or worry arise, I meet those feelings with understanding and compassion. I call forth the divine guidance that I know is always within me. Soon, I feel fresh ideas start to take shape. Visualizing possible next steps, I begin to see how they can lead me exactly where I need to go. From this space, I discover new confidence and faith as I move forward. I am grateful for the spirit within that guides me along my path.

The law of their God is in their hearts; their steps do not slip.—Psalm 37:31

Let Go Let God Share Love

I Generously Share The Love In My Heart. 

I am connected with the dear ones in my life by invisible threads of love. Whether my loved ones are near or far away, just thinking about them fills me with an uplifting feeling of spiritual well-being and union and strengthens our connection, no matter how many miles separate us. As I concentrate on the love within me, I feel deep fulfillment that inspires me to share my love with a generous heart. Love is the energizing force behind all prayer, service, and kindness. I place my whole heart into my prayers, into the help I offer, and into my kind words and deeds. They go forth to do a mighty work. With assurance and grace, I am inspired by God to be love’s perfect instrument.

Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.—Colossians 3:14

Let Go Let God Know Radiance

The Christ Presence Within Is My Radiant Source Of Good. 

On a clear day, when a stray cloud passes across the sun, I notice the suddenly diminished light. Then, looking up, I see brilliant rays of sunshine surrounding the cloud. Instead of hiding the sun, the cloud helps me see and appreciate the sun’s radiance. As the sun lights the earth and is the source of its energy, the Christ, the divine presence within me, is my light and the source of everything that I need in order to live brilliantly and joyfully. When, like a passing cloud, an obstacle or challenge along my path may seem to dim my Christ light, I respond by looking up, by raising my point of view. I am reassured and strengthened, knowing that the divine radiance is shining as brightly as ever. No cloud can dim the divine light in me!

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.—John 1:5
