Peace, Harmony, Joy

 Meeting Life where It is

Anchored to this planet, secure in this present moment, it’s easy to remember that there is just one thing going on.  Called by many names, we know it as this one presence; loving, creative, and expressing beautifully as life itself.

I am that expression of this one life.  It lives in me breathing me with its breath.

And as that’s so for me it is the truth for each one of us; each of us is a once in a lifetime expression of this one life.   Each of us is unique and precious. Each of us anchored to each other in this present moment, an amazing time in the history of our planet.

Understanding that we are all in this together, I affirm harmony, peace, and joy is emerging just as the sprouts of spring begin to break through the cold soil of winter. Daffodils are coming.

I affirm a world that sees itself as one family, fighting this pandemic together and winning.

We are emerging as a more loving world, able to respect each other and our differences, while moving forward to help our planet.  A cleaner environment is assured; clean water, clean air.

Embracing our diversity, brilliance emerges in our policies and actions in the world. Compassion underlines all decisions going forward.

Grateful that life is unfolding perfectly, evolving and changing; I release this prayer into those spiritual laws that have already worked out the details and it is showing up in our lives exquisitely.

And so it is. Amen.

What is Mine to Do

There is one dynamic universe in a perfect pattern; revealing itself. Call it life expressing as this universe made of cosmic dust and matter. It is organized and evolving and is directed by an intelligence.

My body is an example of this universe expressing; a perfect pattern as my existence. All systems of my body are examples of the perfect instruction of life, bones, muscles, tendons, circulatory and respiratory systems; all molecules within all systems and networks in my body know just what to do, guided by this intelligent life force.

Just as I am part of this miraculous life, here by divine coincidence, so is each one of us; unique, perfect parts of this life.

Leaning into this experience with a willing heart, the universe responds lovingly to this receptivity. Asking what is mine to do regularly; I listen and await the greater vision to meet me. I look for signs in my dreams and daily life to guide me in what is mine to do, believing that Life is guiding and sustaining me, providing direction along the way, making the journey a safe discovery of my divine nature.

Letting go of overwhelming feelings, regrets, resentments, and upset, I rest in the confidence that the divine intelligence is revealing itself perfectly in my affairs and in the affairs of the world.

Celebrating that all acts of willingness to experience this divine life, reveal the presence of more and more good, I feel gratitude as I become increasingly aware of this miracle of life living through me. Feeling complete in this prayer, it is released now to the Law that has already worked it out perfectly in the universal mind. And I look for the demonstration of this prayer in my experience.

And so it is.

Timeless Wisdom, Evolutionary Vision

 Timeless Wisdom, Evolutionary Vision

There is one life. It is the life of the Living Spirit. It is ever-present and all-knowing. Its wisdom is the guiding force behind all of creation. All of life is an expression of the peace and unity of the Spirit.

 I am one with the Living Spirit. My life is a creation of the Spirit. The wisdom of Spirit finds its expression through me. The peace and loving essence of the Spirit are alive in me now.

 I affirm that the timeless wisdom of the Spirit guides me in all my affairs. I lift my consciousness to see and know the highest spiritual vision for all beings. I hold fast to an evolutionary vision of peace and unity for all. I am guided by the voice of truth within me to perfect right action. I clearly see the way forward to helpful solutions and the emergence of a bright future. My life is in full alignment with the Living Spirit. Its peace and loving essence express through my words, deeds, and actions. Unity is my foundation and my truth.

 I give thanks for the revelation of this powerful truth. I accept it as complete in the Mind of Spirit. I let it be.

 And so it is.

The Delight of the Season

Right now, right here - One life. It is seen in the bright twinkling of Christmas lights; it is heard in the chorus of Christmas carols and its fragrance weaves its way to us from the evergreen trees and the sweet smell of cinnamon in the Christmas cookies. God is present in all of it. This One life is in the stillness of the longer nights of the season. It is in the hearts of humankind as they give of themselves. It is in the purity and innocence of a newborn babe. It is love. It is peace.

I am connected to this source of all life as it resides at the very core of my being. I turn to it, opening. I allow this goodness to uplift me and through its power and presence I am guided. I am guided to remember that I am a divine emanation of the One. All of its qualities are mine also. I am love I am peace.

I claim that the knowledge of this connection works through me and as me. I accept all the good that comes my way. I believe in the harmony and the faith and the delight of the season. I stand assuredly in the grace light of God. I love and forgive others and just as importantly, I love and forgive myself. I send out this energy of love and kindness. It creates a force field around me and my life is made better.

 As I feel the shift in knowing the truth of this prayer, I am grateful.

 So, it is with calm and confidence that I lift up this prayer and surrender it to the One. I know that it is already answered. It is done and done well. And so it is. Amen.

Powerful Faith

There is only one thing going on. The Creator and its creation. This one thing is all things and everywhere present. It is so incredibly powerful that it spins this blue planet creating night and day and each season. This divine intelligence is a creative design that infills all things known seen and heard. And also, all things unseen, unheard and unknown. It is beauty and love and deep joy found at the core of all life. It is a reservoir of peace so very deep there is no floor or no ceiling. It is the very goodness of life.

As the Creator is all of these qualities I too am connected to the all that is. The same qualities of the divine Spirit reside in me and each one. At the very core of my being is a place that has never been hurt and knows only love. It is this essence that connects us one to another always.

I remember this connection with Spirit and operate from that place. It guides me and directs me. It uplifts me and comforts me. I walk and live and have my being standing firmly in my faith. And if I momentarily forget, I return home quickly and easily to what I know to be the truth. I am worthy of the grace of God. It is my divine birthright. All is well.

My heart resides in gratitude for the knowing and shift in consciousness that this prayer has voiced. I celebrate its truth.

With that surety of faith I simply release this word unto the activity of God that makes it so, the law. For in the mind of God it is already done.

And so it is!

Affirmative Prayer for Wisdom and Joy



The overarching and absolute Divine Power is the Creator of all of Life. The One Mind is ever-present and deep within all of this creation. Its intelligence and wisdom prevails in every situation. 

This same absolute Power expresses through me, the One Mind is present in me.

The Creative Power of the One Mind is forever informing me with its wisdom and intelligence. Its power moves me to experiences and thought patterns that bring more joy, more awe, more wonder into my life. I open to accept this divine inheritance. I align myself with it, I agree with it, I cooperate with it. It is compelling me and it is lovely. I am enough and I am worthy.

I am resting in the ease and goodness of this greater consciousness and I am grateful.

I trust this movement in Mind to bring me the joy I am seeking.

And So It Is
