A Reminder

Sure am I that this day
we are masters of our fate;

that the task which has been set before us
is not above our strength;

that it's pangs and toil
are not beyond our endurance.

As long as we have faith;
and the conquerable will to win,
victory will not be denied to us.

Random:

I see you strong and whole. I see you blessed and prospered. I see you courageous and confident. I see you capable and successful. I see you free from all limitations or bondage of any kind. I see you as the spiritually perfect being you truly are. Sure, we all have things we want to change, to improve about ourselves. But underneath the flesh and bone, you are perfect. Always remember that. Touch the Earth with your feet, lift your face to the sun, breathe the air, listen to the birds and the wind through the trees. Glory in the creation that surrounds you. You've carried the guilt, the shame for long enough. You've kept your wounds open for long enough. The time has come to let go, to heal. Keep the lessons and let the pain heal. Yes, you know what we are talking about it. You may think you have challenges, but you have so many blessings. Sometimes it takes only a moment of conscious effort to recognize those blessings. Once you focus on the gifts instead of the problems, your whole perspective will change and you will see blessings everywhere. Hold on to what is good, even if it's a handful of earth. Hold on to what you believe, even if it's a tree that stands by itself. Hold on to what you must do, even if it's a long way from here. Hold on to your faith, even if it's easier to let go. Hold on to His hand. To free yourself from a problem you have to acknowledge it and face it with your eyes and heart open.

Somebody Want's You To Know:

Every time you act, you are learning how to take an action even better. What is it that you've been learning today? What is it that you want to learn tomorrow? If you worry a lot, then day after day you are learning how to worry even better. If you think about doing something a lot, then you are learning how to think about doing. Every moment you are happy, you are learning how to be even happier. Sorrow is with us not because we are bad at stopping it, but simply because it's part of being human. What matters is not whether good or bad things happen - both will, but your relationship to them. Just think back over the last 24 hours, - what had you taken hard that you could have taken lightly? Have compassion for others when they cannot see what is obvious to you.

Somebody Want's You To Know:

All is well, all is well, all is well. Lighten up and play. Remember, you are God's child, so it's ok to be silly, be curious, be fun. You can tell yourself that you have already decided, that nothing now can stop you, but if that step backwards is so much safer than step forwards, what will hold you true to your path when the going gets tough? Sometimes, the right thing to do is to take that first irreversible step, the one after which you cannot go back. And now, for you, is one of those times. To free yourself from a problem you have to acknowledge it and face it with your eyes and heart open. You may think you have challenges, but you have so many blessings. Sometimes it takes only a moment of conscious effort to recognize those blessings. Once you focus on the gifts instead of the problems, your whole perspective will change and you will see blessings everywhere.

Somebody Want's You To Know:

Faith is not necessary when you know how things are going to work out, - that's knowledge. It's in the time of unknowing that having faith is what sees you through to the other side. Faith is what gives you strength. Faith is that light in your heart that keeps on shining even when it's all darkness outside. Now is the time to keep that faith alive! You can tell yourself that you have already decided, that nothing now can stop you, but if that step backwards is so much safer than step forwards, what will hold you true to your path when the going gets tough? Sometimes, the right thing to do is to take that first irreversible step, the one after which you cannot go back. (And now, for you, is one of those times.) Power isn't always evil. If you stand tall in the power of goodness, you can have a powerful impact on a situation.

Somebody Want's You To Know:

All is going according to plan. Trust that there is a bigger picture. Trust that life is unfolding as it should. Sometimes we get overwhelmed with the details and complexities of our lives. Sometimes we need some help to get untangled, to gain a new perspective. Ask for help. Help may come in human or divine form. It may be seen or unseen. Ask, and you shall receive. Don't make your waking life and responsibilities so important that you neglect the very real benefits of sleep, rest, and dreaming. The night is your time of restoration. It is essential. There is both day and night for a reason.

Somebody Want's You To Know:

Allow yourself to breathe in and out slowly. Allow your breath to bring you to a place of calmness. Allow yourself to be calm like the eye in the center of the storm. Even when you feel ugly or depressed or guilty or ashamed, there is an inner spark in you which is light. This light is your beauty. This light is the reflection of your creation. You are a child, human, a living being, thus you are beautiful. Embrace your beauty, embrace your light.
