I have unshakable faith .....

Here is the last day from the little Unity pamphlet entitled Wherever You Are God Is.....

It has a writing for each day of the week in addition to other poems and verse.

SUNDAY 

I HAVE UNSHAKABLE FAITH IN THE PERFECT OUTCOME OF EVERY SITUATION IN MY LIFE, FOR I KNOW THAT GOD IS IN ABSOLUTE CONTROL. 

Is there a seeming problem in your life that is causing you much concern? Have all your efforts and prayers met with little or no response? Do not be discouraged and do not be afraid, for God loves you and is taking care of everything. God is in complete charge of your life, and GOD IS GOOD. The mighty transforming power of God is surging through your entire being, stilling your mind, harmonizing your soul, healing your body, and adjusting all your circumstances. Believe this! Anchor your trust deep in the realization that with God all things are immediately possible, and never doubt it for a single moment.

Know yourself to be a spiritual being, endowed with the limitless and all-powerful attributions of God. Divine wisdom is guiding you to the perfect solution. Divine strength is enabling you to perform your tasks victoriously. Divine joy is lightening your heart with expectancy. Divine courage is firing you with persistence.

"I am with you to deliver you." --- Jeremiah 1:8

God takes my hand......

SATURDAY

GOD TAKES MY HAND AND LEADS ME SAFELY THROUGH DIFFICULT PLACES.

There is a saving, healing power closer to you than your heartbeat. You are never helpless or alone. You are never entirely dependent or yourself. God, your friend, is with you, offering every good thing to you. God is ready and able to help, whatever your need may be.

Turn to God now, and say quietly, "Lord, I need Your help. I cannot handle everything alone. I have faith in Your guiding, loving presence ever with me."

Comfort will come to you if you are grieving. Strength will come to you if you are weak. Faith will fill your heart and mind if you are fearful. Love will transform your emotions and dissolve bitterness or resentment.

God takes your hand and leads you safely through difficult places. God is your comfort, your strength, your inspiration, your never-failing help.

"When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles." --- Psalms 34:17

I stand still right where I am.

FRIDAY

I STAND STILL RIGHT WHERE I AM.  I RELAX AND TRUST GOD'S TRANSFORMING POWER WITHIN ME. 

God is fully present with me now. No matter what the condition in which I find myself, God is with me. I do not have to find my own way out of the entanglement before I contact God. I do not have to make myself more worthy before I reach God; but right now, right where I am, God is lovingly waiting for me to turn within in trust. I relax in the realization that God is within me and all about me, even in what may seem to be the darkest darkness. "Lo, I am with you always" (Mt. 28:20).

If some unhappy situation seems to be bearing down upon me and on all sides difficult problems crowd closer, I will not run in panic: I will simply stand still, right where I am, and relax completely --- mentally, emotionally, physically --- by reminding myself that the protecting presence of God is all about me. 

"Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou dost preserve my life...and thy right hand delivers me." --- Psalms 138:7

I KNOW THE LORD IS AT HAND, AND NOTHING DISTURBS ME.

THURSDAY

I KNOW THE LORD IS AT HAND, AND NOTHING DISTURBS ME. 

Today I will not worry or fret about conditions that do not seem right or orderly to me. I will do what it is possible for me to do to make them right, and then I will let go all anxiety and trust in God to do the rest.

I will keep my faith centered in God and in the divine law of good. I will not judge by appearances, but I will always keep in mind the truth that God is in all and through all and that God's good purposes are fulfilled.

More than I know, my faith, my calm assurance of God's presence and power, will bless the condition that seems unyielding, and it will set in motion God's transforming power.

Where to human sense it seems impossible to do anything to improve a situation, with God there is always a way.

Today I will remind myself that "the Lord is at hand" (Phil.4:5), and I will go about my day's activities poised and secure in the knowledge that God's right answers are now being revealed."

"The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety." --Philippians 4:5-6

"He who blesses himself in the land shall

I am guided and loved, today and everyday.

Tuesday

As I begin this day, I look to You, Lord.  Keep me in all my ways, safe in Your presence, enfolded in Your love.

Guide my feet in the way they should go.  Instruct me with Your "still small voice" (1 Kings 19:12).  Help me to be faithful to Your guidance.  Help me to be calm, unwavering, steadfast is the knowledge that You are in charge and nothing but good can 

come to me and mine.

Love me, Lord, just for today.  I know that You are with me today, supplying all my needs, tenderly upholding me.

Today I walk with You, and you lead me irresistibly to the good you have already prepared for me.

Whatever I need to do today, be with me, Lord.  Wherever I need to go today,

 guide my steps, Lord.

Keep me safe and secure through every moment of the day.  Fill me with Your wisdom; enfold me in Your love; strengthen me with Your power.

"The Lord bless you and keep you: The Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you."  --- Numbers 6:24-25

I trust in divine guidance.

I thought I would share from a little Unity pamphlet entitled Wherever You Are God Is.....

It has a writing for each day of the week in addition to other poems and verse.

   We begin with Monday.

MONDAY 

In every situation that confronts me, I turn within to my Father; I trust in divine guidance. 

There is a wisdom within you that is capable of guiding you through any difficulty. When you put your faith in its guidance, it will come to your rescue and illumine your darkness. "Your Father knows what you need before you ask him" (Mt. 6:8). If you trust in God, your needs will be perfectly fulfilled.
You do not have to work out your problems alone, for God in you is your sure help and strength from one moment to the next. God is not passively standing by waiting for you; God's loving presence is within you. No matter what your mistakes, God loves you. 

No matter what your plight,

 God will guide you to freedom.
If you have been racking your brain trying to arrive at some decision, quietly trust divine wisdom and give God a chance to show you what is right. If without success you have been trying to overcome some difficulty, stop trying so hard and trust in God to show you the way.
"Thou dost guide me with thy counsel." --- Psalms 73:24

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE !

We can know that the goal

of life is to open out a way

whence the imprisoned

splendor may escape.

--- Eric Butterworth ("Celebrate Yourself!")

(I posted this sometime in 2009, but I think

it bears repeating, at least for me.)

This postcard is addressed to my Grandmother Rachel back in Dec. 1910, 99 years ago! Her full name was Rachel Arizona Albertina Bryant! Hence "Zona" for short. She would have been 9 years and 9 months old. It comes from a stack of my Grandparent's postcards that I am lucky to have. It is addressed to "Dear cousin", which would make the sender my cousin as well, but unfortunately I do not recognize the name or even what the name is!


Well here we are on the eve of a new decade! How exciting is that? (VERY!) I am thinking back to 1999 and how the future century seemed kinda scary. Yet here we are 10 years later! Although I know how much tragedy has taken place, and of all the challenges we think we are facing now, we really only need to trust ourselves and God's Grace. Each one of us really knows what is best for ourselves (and ultimately our world) if we are honest and look within. Listen to your intuition! It is there for a reason. We each have everything we need to know right within ourselves. God.

HAVE A SAFE AND WONDERFUL EVENING

WHATEVER YOUR PLANS ARE!
