For the Love of Spirit

Purpose:  To fuel the fire of love that I have for Spirit.  To experience the presence of Presence.

Realization:  Spirit is all there is.  One essence, One substance, many forms yet undivided, Spirit is all.  This divine essence of this great All is Love.  Perfect Love, passionate Love, creative Love, unconditional and undivided Love.  Spirit is the Presence that brings life and love to all that is.

Unification:  I am the essence of Love, created by the One for Its divine mission of expressing and experiencing Its own perfect Love.  I am Spirit in one of Its many forms.  Spirit abides within me, always as the perfect eternal Love that It is.  The Presence of Spirit is here as me.

Recognition: I recognize Spirit as my creator and the Lover of my soul. As I remember and recognize this divine truth, my heart expands and I feel the Presence of Love that lives within me.  I embrace this Love and know that I am embraced by It.  Perfect Love, passionate Love, creative and unconditional Love are mine because Spirit has given Itself to me.  Spirit has withheld nothing from me.  All that Spirit is, Spirit gives.  The Presence of Spirit makes Itself know to me.  I open the eyes of my soul and look for this divine unseen and find It alive, always present within me.  My heart expands, my love expands, I experience the divine Love of Spirit in me, through me and as me.

Thanksgiving:  The realization of this great Love fills my heart with gratitude, and I rest in this divine embrace as I......

Release:  release my word into the loving, Self-giving creative action of the perfect Law of Love.  Amen

Affirmative Prayer for Deep Connection to Spirit


Breathing in, I know that there is only one Life, one Presence, one Mind flowing in and through everything.  Breathing out, I know this presence is the source of all that is – all love, all light, all wisdom, all compassion, all creativity, all peace, all joy.  It has no beginning and no end; It is eternal, limitless and everywhere present.  It is the Infinite Intelligence that gives rise to all creation, and all creation is made of, from and by this Divine Presence.

My very breath is the Presence within me, flowing in and through my body, permeating and connecting each cell, organ and system, and flowing out into the atmosphere, connecting me to the world of my experience.   As I wrap myself in this knowing, I breathe in the love, I breathe out the love.  I breathe in the peace, I breathe out the peace.  I breathe in the joy, creativity and abundance.  I breathe it out, and know that there is no separation at any point nor at any time.  There is only oneness and I am a part of it!

I remember and declare that Infinite Love, Infinite Well Being and Infinite Abundance are my true nature, my true experience, the only reality.  I accept, in complete certainty, the truth of God: there is only love, wholeness and perfection.  I allow any mistaken thought of lack, limitation or dis-ease to melt away as shadows melt away in the bright light of day.  The bright light of Truth is that I am a spark of the Divine and a beautiful, unique expression of the love, well being and abundance of Its divinity.  I allow my experience to reflect perfect happiness, perfect abundance, perfect well-being.  Everything good is brought into my experience.

With a heart full of gratitude and love, I give thanks for this truth and for my ever-growing awareness of its out-picturing in my life. 

I release my Word into the law of the Universe and let God do God’s work.  And so it is.

Prayer for Grief and Loss

Prayer for Grief and Loss

Spirit is love everlasting.  Spirit is peace abiding always.  Spirit is the source of love and keeps giving all the time.  There is no beginning and there is no end to the magnificent power of Spirit.  In all places, seen and unseen, in all situations, happy or sad, in every moment of every day, Spirit is always there.  This never ending life of Spirit continues even after the walk on this earthly plane.  Even after the last breath of life as we know it, life continues.  Life continues to love and be loved. 
I am one with that Spiritual essence which is the source of my love and peace.  As I align myself closer and closer to that essence, I am clear in the knowledge that I can find peace.  I can feel that spiritual alignment within me bringing me closer to love and closer to peace. Everything I am is given by the always generous, loving hands of Spirit.  Spirit is in each breath I take and each step I take.  I am one with Spirit each moment of each day.
I claim that I move a step closer to peace with each breath.  As I remember Spirit’s love is a part of me, I remember that whatever passes away from my life is also held in loving embrace by Spirit.  I claim that I become steady and sure with the knowing that Spirit’s love guides me every step of the way. I claim that I am able to access all of Spirit’s love within me as I move through this time of grief and pain.  I declare right now a calm acceptance of what is and a new resolve continue to love and be grateful for all parts of my life.
I am so grateful to align with this truth and knowledge that Spirit is always with me.  I am grateful to stop and remember this truth through this time of prayer. And I am grateful as I open to this love and peace that is the essence of who I am.
I release my word into the law of mind where it is acted upon and made so.  And so it is.

Affirmative Prayer for a Peaceful Neighborhood

 Affirmative Prayer for a Peaceful Neighborhood

There is a Divine Presence in, through, and around all people and circumstances.  

It is fully present now, expressing as each one of us, and in the evolution of our neighborhood.

This prayer then affirms our alignment with the peace and harmony we know to be our neighborhood.  The special spirit and character of our neighborhood is a relaxed setting where families can grow and see their dreams come true.  Elders can remain in their homes to enjoy the peace of their back yards.  Streets in our community remain quiet and traffic free.    The spirit of our neighborhood is strong, resilient, and dedicated to preserving its beauty.  We are its guardians.  And as such, we grow closer as a community, learning and persevering through it all.


Grateful that this Divine Power is at work on our behalf, the work has already been done.  So we relax now knowing all is well.
