Let Go Let God be Protected

The power and presence of God protects me.

 

Both Jesus and Moses taught others to “not be afraid” and to trust God’s protecting presence in their lives. If I find myself feeling scared, I acknowledge the feeling then pivot my attention back to divine life within. I am safe and protected because God is always with me. This is not to say that I can deliberately put myself in harm’s way. I would not because God is working through me to inspire and direct my actions. I use positive, affirmative prayer to align my mind with the truth of God’s protection. Meditation helps me connect my heart with this truth and to allow God’s protection to fill me with a deep sense and experience of peace. Despite any appearances in the physical world, I know I am safe in Spirit.

Let your steadfast love and your faithfulness keep me safe forever.—Psalm 40:11

Let Go Let God with Courage

I journey through life and treasure each new experience.

 

A new beginning is exciting and may be an opportunity to reach beyond my comfort zone. Going back to school, starting a new job, or even retiring from a long-time career all call for courage to begin a new adventure. At any event such as this, I dig deep within to call upon my faith and move forward. I do not let fear of the future keep me from accomplishing any goal. In Dare to Believe, author May Rowland writes, “Fear keeps us from doing things, and faith helps us to accomplish the so-called impossible.” I call on my faith in quiet times of prayer. As I commune with God, my awareness of my spiritual nature deepens, my faith grows stronger, and my heart opens to positive experiences.

Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.—Joshua 1:9

Let Go Let God as Spirit Within

I AM Spirit in action.

 

Author Emmet Fox writes, “The word is creative, and the strongest and most creative of words is ‘I am.’ When you say, ‘I am,’ you are calling upon the universe to do something for you and it will do it ... The ‘I am’ is God in action.” As I pray, I connect with Spirit. I am diligent about using positive, constructive words as I connect with my I AM—my divine nature. I affirm I AM whole and well, knowing that Spirit within flows through me as perfect healing life. I speak words of abundance: I AM prosperous, knowing that this is God’s world and God lovingly provides for me. I turn to Spirit within and affirm I AM peaceful and free, knowing I am enfolded in and connected to divine love at all times.

This is my name forever, and this my title for all generations.—Exodus 3:15

Let Go Let God in Gratitude

I am gratefully and wonderfully blessed.

 

When I feel gratitude, it is my heart responding to life’s infinite blessings. No matter what situation or circumstance I find myself in, I can always find something to be grateful for. Repeating the affirmation, I am so blessed, helps focus my thoughts on gratitude. Images and words come to mind—recollections of the day that left lasting impressions on my psyche. I recall words of encouragement I heard or read. Diverse experiences saturated in joy and love, pain and sadness, remind me of my full life. I ruminate upon my spiritual gifts. I give thanks for each experience that has brought opportunities for personal growth and transformation. I am gratefully and wonderfully blessed.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.—Matthew 5:8

Let Go Let God Provide Comfort

I am comforted by God’s loving presence in my heart.

 

After the devastating loss of a loved one, I may feel overwhelmed with grief as I struggle to reconcile my life moving forward without this person. I find solace as I turn to God in prayer. I place my hand over my heart and with each beat I begin to feel a growing sense of peace. In this quiet moment, I surrender to the loving presence of God within. Divine love is the soothing, comforting balm that my emotions so desperately seek. Like a child comforted by a loving parent, I feel nurtured and cared for by my Creator. My connection with the Divine supports me in moving through sadness. In these sacred times, my heart is healed and I am comforted.

For the Lord has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his suffering ones.—Isaiah 49:13

Let Go Let God as a Caregiver

I open my heart to those who give comfort and care.

 

Today I express gratitude for those who, out of necessity, find themselves caring for others. In prayer, I appreciate each caregiver, grateful that their loving service makes life sweeter and better for those they serve. Their healing touch soothes, their emotional comfort heals, their prayerful support shines great light for those who need it. Everyone can be a caregiver to the world community by expressing tender care and mercy each day in every word and action. I may have no idea of the difficulties that someone may be going through, but my one act of kindness may provide a lifeline for that person going forward. As I care for others, I become one in purpose with all who are giving from their hearts of goodwill.

But we were gentle among you, like a nurse tenderly caring for her own children.—1 Thessalonians 2:7

Let Go Let God as Possibilities

The limitless power of God creates endless possibilities for me.

 

Is there something I’ve been wanting to pursue—a passion, a dream—yet my time and efforts have felt blocked? If the thing I long to do is something I feel drawn to fulfill—and I have the determination, will, and strength to follow through—then I know Spirit-within will help me find a way to succeed. The unlimited peace and power of God blesses me with spiritual abilities—love, faith, understanding, wisdom, and more. Because I am a divinely created being, I trust that God has provided me with all that I need to flourish and thrive in the world. I fulfill my potential through the possibility that God has planted within me. The possibilities are endless, and I embrace the potential within me.

And the Lord said, “... this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.”—Genesis 11:6
