Inward Listening

I am listening for my inward thoughts and guidance.

Everyone I know is listening for their inward thoughts and guidance.

Everyone I don’t even know all over the world is listening for their inward thoughts and guidance.
—————

Listening within always gives me a sense of peace and calm as I get quieter and quieter to hear it.

As I release the noise from outside my thoughts, I can feel peace moving in to take over the disturbed and restless sense of unease.

I can hear the guidance and comfort of my quiet inward sense.

As I breathe into these moments, I can feel a sense of what the next step should be in my quiet life.

I can get ready to take the next step without worry or fear.

The next step is within my grasp and understanding.

A I move through my day like this from step to step, I feel a sense of accomplishment.

I am no longer frustrated by the despair of politics and the economy.

I am listening for the next step.

The inward direction I receive comes from my Unlimited Source.

I can always achieve it.

It is my security.

Through my inward listening, I can trust my life.

I know all who live by this practice feel a different sense of security than one which can be taken away by the superficial life of politics and the economy.

Doing What Is Right

I can always do what is right.

Everyone I know can always do what is right.

Everyone I don’t even know all over the world, can always do what is right.

———————-

We are all here to uplift society and civilization.

It is right that all the available resources would be used to steward the earth and her people.

It is always right to do good.

Despite the current and historical examples of greed, that is not right.

Creating a balance where all may be secure allows the development of new ideas.

The best ideas serve all of us throughout the earth.

With the motivating factor of doing the most good for the most people, we can find a balance which increases good for everyone.

What is right is what is uplifting.

What is right is what is generous and compassionate.

What is right is a sense of the value of everyone.

What is right is the creation of circumstances which allow everyone to prosper in a way which sustains themselves and the earth.

As we listen inwardly with the goal of generosity toward everyone, the most practical ideas will emerge.

The Feeling of Common Good

I am so grateful for the feeling of common good.

Everyone I now is so grateful for the feeling of common good.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful for the feeling of common good.

———————-
It is a good feeling to know that we have the power to create common good.

All the steps to legalize selfishness and self-centeredness do not take away form the simple principle of common good.

What’s good for all affects everyone.

There is room for good for all.

There are ways of achieving good for all which do not depend on actions and institutions which can be taken away by a small group.

We are starting to find these ways.

Instances where local grass roots action helps those in need are happening in more and more places.

Innovative and imaginative solutions are being found and implemented for underserved populations.

Networking among those who desire to serve and uplift are having a positive effect.

As this sense of good for all grows, it will trickle up through the ranks of people who have been empowered by the acts of others.

Good for all, the common good, is a unifying principle and it is gaining acceptance and power through the actions of more and more people.

Finding Your Deep Peace

I am grateful to find my deep peace.

Everyone I know is grateful to find their deep peace.

Everyone I don’t even know all over the planet, is grateful to find their deep peace.

—————-
To find your deep peace, take a moment to slow down.

Take a deep breath and do so again until your begin to find your calm.

Once you can maintain your calm, go deeper.

Listen deeper, and deeper.

As you find your focus shifting inwardly, you can begin to listen for a feeling.

Maintain your calm and listen even more deeply for the feeling of peace.

Once you can feel your deep peace, maintain your focus and go deeper.

At a certain point, your deep peace will hold you and embrace you and cushion you and comfort you.

In this deep security, you will find your deep peace.

And here is where you can listen and find the messages and guidance which are meant for you this day.

You can do this at any time during the day and hear the messages and guidance that you need for that moment.

Find your deep peace and listen, and be guided.

Grateful for Time to Build

I am grateful for time to build on my new peace and happiness

Everyone I know is grateful for time to build on their new peace and happiness.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful for time to build on their new peace and happiness.

—————-
Right now, my experience of peace and happiness is relatively small.

I have learned how to overcome long-term negativity in my life, but I have not been practicing it very long.

I have discovered that I need time to expand my practice.

I need to build a wider foundation with more experiences of peace and happiness.

I can continue doing what I have discovered that I love to do.

I can continue meeting with my supportive craft guilds and women’s groups.

I can continue enjoying living in the country.

I can continue building up my collection of beautiful things that I love to make.

But, it is not time to go out and sell.

Every time I try to lead or push or encourage myself in that direction, I get rebuffed.

I pushed it last year and lost out on a lot of booth fees.  Even the weather caused events to be cancelled.

So now, I am continuing to work and to prosper and to create and to enjoy.

This is my time for building those kinds of peaceful and happy experiences.

Release of Fear

I know that I can release my fears.

Everyone I know knows they can release their fears.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, knows they can release their fears.

——————-
Sometimes fears are triggered by things we do not even recognize.

How can there be a connection?

As I quit fighting the fear and just listen to what is happening as my body reenacts symptoms, I am guided to discover old memories.

Since the past things are no longer happening, I can reassure myself and find a way around the old feelings that have recurred.

I have proof because I am here now and the other people involved are not.

I can recognize the old symptom as a new kind of proof that I have gone beyond the past, because I am living in entirely new circumstances.

I can relax.

I deserve my new circumstances.

They are a manifestation of my own thinking and actions.

I love being here.

I love doing things that are important to me.

I can release my fears because they are no longer part of my life.

I enjoy my life and I am free.

The Marvel of Today

Though I do not know what they are, I know that today holds marvels for me.

Though everyone that I know does not know what they are, they know that today holds marvels for them.

Though everyone that I don’t know, all over the planet, does not know what they are, they know that today holds marvels for them.

———————-
When I wake up and feel the infinite space in the cosmos for me, I know that today is full of marvels for me.

I am grateful for the simple marvels, like hot tea, and the immense ones, like a sense of purpose and connection.

I am grateful for the marvel of being led to the right connections and being prevented from the ones that are not productive.

I am grateful for the marvel of the inspiration of beautiful materials and the ideas to make beautiful things with them.

I am grateful for the marvel of the right space to work in and the marvel of beautiful companionship in work, home and friends.

I am grateful for the marvel of completing little ideas and building on them to bigger ideas.

Each day is full of marvels for me and I am eager to see what today’s marvels are.
