Karen Casey, Daily Meditations for Practicing the Course:
“Attacking a problem never results in a solution.”
“When we think in terms of attacking a problem, we make the problem real. Usually, we incite others to attack us back too. We are learning that a far better approach to life is to go within and ask the Holy Spirit for a more loving perception of every situation that baffles us. It’s simple and comforting to live this way.
We can acknowledge this wasn’t our path before. We have the battle scars to show for it, but we have learned from our mistakes and we did the best we could with what we knew. How marvelous that we have a more enlightened perspective now. Every experience, not matter how traumatizing initially, will be smoothly incorporated into our lives with the help of the Holy Spirit. Our acceptance of any problem sets a wonderful example for others too. Let’s not forget that we are teaching what we have learned all the time. The students are everywhere.”
“I will teach only love and acceptance today.”
From Marianne Williamson, A Year of Daily Wisdom: “It’s easy to forgive people who have never done anything to make us angry. People who do make us angry, however, are our most important teachers. They indicate the limits to our capacity for forgiveness.”
Hugh Prather: “Because God is love, I am never alone. Regardless of what spiritual beliefs they profess, most believe they are alone. They think, act, and pray as if they are alone. This is simple denial that Love exists. It is a misperception that spills on everything in the world they see, and it blocks the experience of peace.”
Caroline Myss: ‘How conscious do you want to be?’
Eckhart Tolle: “A grievance is a strong negative emotion connected to an event in the sometimes distant past that is being kept alive by compulsive thinking, by retelling the story in the head or out loud of ‘what someone did to me’ or ‘what someone did to us.’ A grievance will also contaminate other areas of your life.”
Unity’s Daily Word:
“Thank You, God, for the gift of this day!”
“Starting the day with “Thank You, God!” prepares me for a day of thankfulness.”
“In an attitude of thankfulness, I recognize that each new day is a gift from God. I accept this gift and my inner spiritual vision to see people and situations in a more positive light. In that light, I value both the ordinary and extraordinary blessings that people bring into my life. I understand the good that comes from experiencing a challenge: I learn that I am able to stretch and grow beyond what is usually asked of me.”
“I appreciate the spirit of God that is expressing life and intelligence through me. And I appreciate the people who are supporting and encouraging me with their positive thoughts, comments, and prayers.”
