A Year of Miracles

Today I pray for those who do not love me.
Perhaps there is someone who does not understand me, who does not accept me, and does not love me. Let me not respond to their judgment with judgment. Today I respond to their judgment with love.
Whatever has so locked their hearts that they cannot see into mine, may God free them. Whatever has wounded their souls that they cannot appreciate that I have wounds as well, may God heal them. Whatever fear so blinds them to love, may love yet be shown to them.

Everything you’ve experienced was grist for the mill by which you have become who you are. As low as you might have descended, in God there are no limits to how high you can go now. It is not too late. You are not too damaged. In fact, you are better than you know.

Wherever you’ve been, and whatever you’ve done so far, your entire life was building up to this moment. Now is the time to burst forth into your greatness, a greatness you could never have achieved without going through exactly the things you’ve gone through.

Today I align myself with the will of a loving universe.

Today I align myself with the will of a loving universe.
The universe is not random but intentional; as a reflection of divine Mind, it intends love and happiness for all living things. The question I want to ask myself in any situation is, “Am I aligned with the will of the universe?”

If I am only seeking my own goals; if I am blaming anyone or living in the past; if I am competing but not collaborating—then I am not aligned with a loving universe. I choose instead a miraculous path. I enter every situation with only one intention: to be a vessel of love and a blessing on my surroundings. May all people who I meet or even think of receive my love.

Today is a day of surrender, as I seek not my own goals but the one goal of God. May my heart be so open and my soul so soft that I am a conduit for all things good. May it be revealed to me where to go, what to do, what to say and to whom, that I might serve Him best. In every moment may I remember to pray, “Dear God, please use me.” For thus it will be so.

No matter what situation I am in today, I will remember that only love is real. I will not be waylaid by false appearances. When I cannot find my way to true vision, I pray to be reminded that false appearances are powerless before the will of God. I pray that my inner eye be opened to the love within all things.

God is not outside me, but lives within my heart. He lives in my mind, as I live in His. There is nothing I can do, and nowhere I can go, that can separate me from God.

Believing in a separation between myself and God is at the core of all my problems. For no such separation exists. I am not alone, for God is always with me.

No matter what I go through today, I need not fear. For God is all-powerful and God is here. I am never separate from the One who created me. There is nothing I can do to make Him turn his face away from me. I am loved, I am cared for, and I am totally safe in the arms of God.
