Seeds for the Garden of yoiur Mind

June 29

Karen Casey, Daily Meditations for Practicing the Course:

“Fear may come and go.”

“Fear visits us when we forget our union with all others and with God. Why is it so hard to remember that we are One, joined for all time with our Creator? It’s hard because the ego doesn’t want us to remember that. The ego wants us to think we are separate, unequal human beings. The ego wants us to fight with others, to be uneasy with others, to fear the presence of others. The ego is nourished by the insanity that makes us feel separate.

Fortunately, we can turn away from fear every time the ego snares us. Its hold on us is caused by our own unwillingness to ask the Holy Spirit for help, for a different perspective, for even a little awareness of the love that’s always present. When the struggle is great, the best we may be able to do is seek some peace a minute at a time. But that’s a beginning.

Peace is elusive, but it doesn’t have to be. The Holy Spirit is only a  tiny thought away. In an instant, we can have the peace and joy we claim to want. This gift awaits us.”

“I am as free of fear as I want to be every day.
Today beckons.”

Marianne Williamson, A Year of Daily Wisdom:     “When we think with love, we are literally co-creating with God. And when we’re not thinking with love, since only love is real, then we’re actually not thinking at all.”

Hugh Prather, Morning Notes:          “I put myself in a position of weakness when I cherish a grievance. When I hold onto resentment or bitterness, I can’t help but see myself as a victim, because I have put someone else in control. And as long as I think of myself as a victim, I have nothing but weakness to extend to others. Thus a victim self-image is not only damaging to me but to the people I love.”

Wayne Dyer:          “When you see yourself as a separate body/mind you are in a world of illusion in which disease and injury are the way of life.”

Paul Ferrini:               “Say what you need, speak your truth and be firm in your commitment to your own healing. Only through your commitment to honor yourself can you attract a partner willing to do the same.”  

Unity’s Daily Word:

“God is my source and my supply.
I give thanks for the good that is mine.”

“If I were to ask ten different people to define prosperity, I would likely get ten different answers. My own definition might bring the total to eleven. Yet no matter how many different ways there are to define prosperity, the miracle of God’s abundance is this: whatever the need, God provides.”

“God is the source of my supply. This supply includes inspiration and knowledge. Prosperity in all its variations is mine because I share of myself and all that I have been given. I know what to do in order to both give and receive the good that God has supplied.”

“I am grateful – for the good that God has given me already and also for the good that I know is, even now, on its way to me.”

Lesson 180

Review Lessons 169 & 170
“By grace I live. By grace I am released.
“There is no cruelty in God and none in me.”

By grace, by love I am sustained. I live in the Love I AM. In that Love am I free for all time, for all eternity. What God possesses, I have. God is Love, I AM Love. God Is, I AM. Cruelty is a word not known to God, nor to me. It is a word of ego depicting a fear. Where Love is present, fear shall never be.
