Happy New Year ~ 2014 will be FUN!

I AM the way.

I AM, the way.

I AM …

Because YOUR word is your bond.

It’ll be a year of change for everyone. Out with the old beliefs in with the new. At least new in the sense that this new belief is much more in alignment as to where we are spiritually.

I saw a video of a church with spooks in it yesterday. I’ve been in that church. Did Quimby, Dresser(s), MEB, Hopkins, Cramer, Brooks, Fillmore(s) or Holmes worry about spooks or were they talking about the Christ consciousness, the Christ within and God.

If there's somethin' strange in your neighborhood
Who ya gonna call?
(Ghostbusters!)

If it's somethin' weird an' it don't look good
Who ya gonna call?
(Ghostbusters!)

What will happen if I believe there are spooks in that church?

What will happen if I don’t believe there are spooks in that church?

What won’t happen if I believe there are spooks in that church?

What won’t happen if I don’t believe there are spooks in that church?

If you're seein' things runnin' through your head
Who can you call?
(Ghostbusters!)

Shoulds and Desires.

When you make the choice to align your thoughts, words and actions with your desires rather than your shoulds you arrive at your destination quickly coupled with a deep sense of satisfaction. Affirmation: I am ready to live my heart's desires now. www.receiveyourlife.com

For the FaithFULL- Wisdom & Sanity.

 “When we think seriously about what it will cost others if we obey the call of Jesus, we tell God He doesn’t know what our obedience will mean. Keep to the point— He does know. Shut out every other thought and keep yourself before God in this one thing only— my utmost for His highest. I am determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and Him alone.” My Utmost for His Highest.

I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing, ~ Lesson 18~ACIM, introduces the concept that we share a joint mind. The race mind, collective or universal consciousness or beliefs which are all ego based.

Dear God,

Thank you in advance for giving me the strength to remain vigilante to what is true. I am willing to see my situation differently. I am willing to offer you a space in my mind to heal any thought of scarcity or lack so that I can get back to the abundance that is my birth right as given by you. I am willing to have patience and to recognize that I see not only my fearful thoughts in front of me but I se the fearful thoughts of others playing out in front of me as well and I will not let those delay my return to peace, happiness, health and abundance. Thank you for my strength today and I accept your miracle in place of my judgments. Amen Robin Duncan

If you’re paying attention you will ultimately realize that everything is as you wish it to be. It really IS done unto us as we believe. It’s a startling realization. It’s also an awareness we have a tremendous power, that if we actually apply it in an intelligent way we can completely shift our experience to one that is magnificent and beautiful. This is our holy opportunity.[ - See more at: http://jenniferhadley.com/2013/12/masterful-living-2014/]

 Six Steps to S-A-N-I-T-Y

Please step in and rule this moment; Choose.

This practicing of the presence of a power beyond our present self places us in a new relationship within ourselves. By working to remember ourselves and our God in this fashion, we agree to forget our former relationship with who we have been and its legion of impossible demands. Guy Finley

To get back to happy co-creation with God we leave a space for the Holy Spirit to heal all the errors in our mind and get back to the happiness that is God’s will for us. Robin Duncan

THROUGH THE PRESENCE AND THE POWER OF GOD, DIVINE ORDER IS NOW ESTABLISHED IN YOU.  

Have you this sense of God within you?

The ideal man of this age is the Christian man—that true embodiment of all that is pure, refined, tender, dignified, consistent, humane, self-forgetful, noble, chivalric. His kindly manners, his cheery conversation, his courteous welcome, his hearty Godspeed, his delight in comforting and helping and bestowing little kindnesses and lifting better up to best, are but the legitimate fruits of Christ love. Pg345

In conclusion, the strongest of all arguments for Christianity is the argument from Christian experience, that subjective conviction which springs from a personal acquaintance and communion with the Saviour, that sense of Christ within one through which he knows the realness of his belief with the same unswerving certainty that he knows his own existence. This cannot be shaken out of the believer in whose heart Christ dwells. Pg353

Weeweechu

It's a romantic full moon, when John said, "Hey, mamacita, let's do Weeweechu."

Oh no, not now, let's look at the moon!" said Angela.

"Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I do Weeweechu. I love you and it's the perfect time," John begged.

You Know: Patience... is everything

All the problems of the world could be settled easily if men were only willing to think. The trouble is that men very often resort to all sorts of devices in order not to think, because thinking is such hard work.
--Thomas J. Watson

My eyes make pictures when they're shut. COLERIDGE.

Imagination is the faculty of conceiving things according to their actualities or possibilities, that is, as they are or may be ; of conceiving them clearly ; of seeing with the eyes closed, and hearing with the ears sealed, and vividly feeling, things which exist only through the will of the artist's genius, not only of conceiving these, but of holding one's conceptions so well in mind as to express them, to copy them, in actual language or form. EDMUND CLARENCE STEDMAN.

The life of the imagination is the discovery of truth. RUSKIN.

You Know

Speak White

Speak white

It sounds so good when you

Speak of Paradise Lost

And of the gracious and anonymous profile that trembles

In Shakespeare's sonnets

We're an uncultured stammering race

But we are not deaf to the genius of a language

Speak with the accent of Milton and Byron and Shelley and Keats

Speak white

And forgive us our only answer

Being the raucous songs of our ancestors

And the sorrows of Nelligan

My word shall prosper in the thing whereunto I send it.

Prayer for Partnering UP! From Jennifer Hadley

Stress and strain in life are the result of trying to make the unworkable, work. If you are not comfortable with yourself you’re not comfortable in society. If you’re just plain old uncomfortable living with yourself you can be quite sure that somewhere you are trying to make something work that can’t work, which of course is the story of the whole world everyone having his own pet philosophy or scientific or unscientific system in which each individual thinks that if it will work for him and he hopes it will work for others so that he can get added gold and glory.

Drop out of mind your belief in the future for good things and events to come to you. Affirm that they are already in your grasp. You will learn the principle of “nowness” by repeating these words of Jesus Christ: “Believe that ye receive.” Mark 11:24 Matthew 21:22 ECH

"It is possible for you to say, with the help of the Spirit of Truth itself, 'I don't know.' And instead of surrendering to futility, you can surrender to God. When you absolutely know, ‘really know’ that you don't know, all is well. You don't have to know from the intellect. You thought you had to. You don't have to. God knows. That's it. That's a fact. That's Truth. That's just as solid as this table. If God knows, which he does, and you're in communication and communion with God, then you have his wisdom. That makes you someone who has knowledge supplied by God, not by man." VH

·  Do you have to be gifted mentally to understand spiritual principles? No. You just have to be sincere.

·  To be a Christian means to work on yourself as Christ taught, not according to the man-made interpretations of what he taught.

Is there a key to the way out? Yes.

Boy, this entire blog seems just chock full of serendipity.

10 main areas to strive for to live positive.

Put All Your Troubles in a God Jar

1)  Quit worrying.

If life has brought to more lemons than lemonade. Go to God in prayer and

ask for God’s help with your burdens, and you will discover that God will

carry many of your burdens for you.

2)  Put it on God’s list.

Not on YOUR to do list, but on God’s to-do list. God cannot help but until

you turn it over to God. God is God and can take care of anything that you

put into God’s hands.

Harmony.

“About one-half the people in the world spend their time seeking happiness and the other half waste a lot of energy in bewailing their fate because they are not happy. It is the rare and unusual thing for a soul to realize that happiness is not a force but a result of the harmonious action of many forces, and therefore is the inevitable effect of their own thought and actions which have put into operation these forces. Happiness has very little relation to the outside conditions as it relates from causes produced by inner and finer thought effects which act directly upon the emotional centers.” – Grace M. Brown

 Grace Mann Brown ( 1859 – 1925 ) was an American writer and spiritual leader. Her work was related to the New Thought Movement, Divine Science and Christian Science. Much of her work focused on spirituality, metaphysics, mysticism, esoteric and occult sciences.

I am me

In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me
Everything that comes out of me is authentically me
Because I alone chose it – I own everything about me
My body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions,
Whether they be to others or to myself – I own my fantasies,
My dreams, my hopes, my fears – I own all my triumphs and
Successes, all my failures and mistakes Because I own all of
Me, I can become intimately acquainted with me – by so doing
I can love me and be friendly with me in all my parts – I know
There are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other
Aspects that I do not know – but as long as I am
Friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously
And hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles
And for ways to find out more about me – However I
Look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever
I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically
Me – If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought
And felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is
Unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that
Which I discarded – I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do
I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be
Productive to make sense and order out of the world of
People and things outside of me – I own me, and
therefore I can engineer me – I am me and
I AM OKAY
