Prayer for Completing my Goals

The ultimate reality is of One. One Essence, One Cause appearing as many conditions. One diverse, inclusive Creative Genius. One Ultimate Reality infusing and informing everything. A Divine Essence appearing as all the different trees in the world; all the unique grains of sand on all the beaches, and all the deserts of the world; all the billions of galaxies and stars in the sky; all the various fishes in all the seas and oceans and all the waves covering those waters. It is all the individuals across the globe with all their intertwining and complicated lives. It is there in all the seen and unseen planes as well. It is this and so much more; It is in, through and as all. It’s vastness defies comprehension being the All and All it is. It is Peace, Perfection, and Love.

Oh how great to know that the goodness of the One is right here, right now and I am one with It. This infinite One, this place of Perfection and Wholeness is what I am. The presence of the Living God is always within me, and I rest in the knowledge that we can never be separated. It has created me and each one of us in its image; I am eternally Perfect, Whole and Complete despite any appearance to the contrary.

As I acknowledge this Divine Truth I awaken to the realization that I succeed in any new venture I want. My inspired vision is even now happening in and through me. I do not have to wonder if I will successfully complete this because it is a given. The wisdom that is in me & as me expands, propelling me to my highest possible good. This is what I am; even in its nascent form I succeed beautifully in embodying my goals. I surpass even my wildest dreams in my endeavors with life and in my spiritual life as a whole. I claim this or something better is happening now for me.

I speak my word and as I do so it comes to life. As I contemplate the expression of this prayer it lifts my heart with gladness to know that it is so. I give thanks for the realization of the Divine Light Within from my oneness with Spirit because it lights my path before me on this journey.

I give it to God knowing it is so. With this I release my word affirming my spiritual prototype demonstrates today & in every way. And so it is!

Hope

All Good is already present everywhere. The Source of all good is a mystery and warm presence available to all who seek it. It is love; it is intelligence. It is the place from which we came and in which we all share—the One Mind, the One Love. Call it God, call it Principle, call it Papa as Jesus did—It is a single, unified substance out of which everything comes forth. There can be no other, no opposite, no evil since there is only one source and it cannot be divided against itself.

I am a child of that Source and so I share in Its qualities; just as a wren cannot give birth to a kitten, so only good can come forth from Goodness. The balance, the freedom, the harmony, the serene well-being of the Source is present and available for me to feel and to know as the truth of my being.

With such a knowing comes hope, the deep knowing that Life is on my side and I can trust that God loves me and intends for me to THRIVE. And with hope there is inevitable courage. Knowing I can rely on the loving intention of Spirit, there is nothing I cannot handle. Apparent obstacles dissolve before me and my journey is smooth.

I am so grateful for this system! All of reality is supporting and responding to me, and to all. Knowing this, I move forward on my path with energy and confidence because these words are already so, outside of time and space.

And so it is!

Trust

That infinite presence and power of Spirit is everywhere. This power for good is the life-giving force behind all creation. This all knowing, wise Spiritual presence is the basis for all of life. All encompassing, and powerful beyond measure, Spirit is the rock and the root of all life. It is in the seen and unseen, and yet to be known. Spirit is all there is.

And since Spirit is everywhere, it is right here within me. It is my home base, my touchstone, and my well spring for all things good. Spirit within me is love, peace, harmony and beauty. It is that power for good that I can use. Each one of us, unique and individual. are one with this power of Spirit.

The recognition and unification with Spirit creates an opening in my consciousness. I affirm that my faith in the power for good sustains me today. I trust in this hidden force within me that guides me to make the best decisions for me today. I trust this love within me that allows me to be kind to myself and others. I trust this power for good within me today and every day for my greatest and highest good to be revealed.

With a heart full of gratitude for this faith and trust, I release my word into the law. And I let go and let it be. And so it is. Amen.

Self-Love

Knowing Spirit is to delve deeply into Its attributes and talents as evidenced everywhere we look—abundance demonstrated as seeds, oceans, planets; harmony demonstrates as the balance in the movement and rest of the tides and the seasons; love demonstrates as the interconnectedness and reciprocity between all elements of life; beauty is visible as the loveliness everywhere in nature. All of creation shows us who we are: creatures of the Creator.

I am the display of all these magnificent aspects of Source and so I can be nothing but adorable. Just as the Spirit that created me adores me in every aspect, I have no choice but to love what is adorable in myself, at my core. And from that view, all I see is loving and lovable.

In loving thanks, I celebrate this description of the loveable in myself and can enthusiastically let it go into the Law, where it is already manifest.

And so it is!
