Free Flowing Spirit that we all are ~ Smiles and Inspiration 2012 ~ Volume 2 Issue 20 Day 354 of 365 12/20/11



Sometimes I go about pitying myself


And all the while I am being carried across the sky


By beautiful clouds.


~ Ojibway Indian Poem


So you think you have problems, feeling kind of low, beaten down, maybe your feeling tired.

These feelings are all apart of thoughts that have been prepared by you.  They are all feelings and perceptions derived by your thoughts.  

Results of these feelings are they all will effect your next action.  Your next result and the cycle of the wind continues.

Want to stop it?  Want all these horrible feelings to go away.  Then send them packing with new thoughts.  New thoughts will lead to new feelings which will lead to new actions which will end up with new results.

It all starts, this process of new results with new thoughts and new perceptions of what can be.

The energy of the world, the spirit of the creator, I call him God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit will carry you, if you call out and with sincere intention ask for the strength and wisdom and then, be still, listen, be quiet and allow the energy, and the clouds if you will to carry you forward.

We all are surrounded by that spirit and we must find the time each day to tap in. 

Stop listening to our own perceptions of our worth and value.

We are more than our perceived notions.  We are more than our past.  We are a child of God and energy flows freely around us. 

Pray and meditate in silence ~ Listen and be still ~ Positive self talk each day ~ think in possibilities ~ Let not past results define your present and future moments ~ Dream Big ~ Stay Foolish ~ Stay Hungry ~ Smile often ~ Laugh much ~ Love Always 

This weeks affirmation fits right here :


I live with an abundant attitude.  I appreciate what surrounds me, I see love and possibility in everything that is presented to me.  When challenges confront me, I welcome them because I see growth and opportunity.  It is a new chance to share in my knowledge of appreciation and love.  I am grateful for everything that brings me love and joy.  Love surrounds me.  Joy flows freely from my spirit.  I am grateful!  I appreciate and look forward to the new year and I will live in gratitude for all that I have.




Trust in these words this week,  Say them, repeat them and each day watch the shift in your beliefs.


Words with power, with emotion and words that will help affirm your design of a better you.


Use your mirror time and face time each day to acknowledge that you are loved and that you are truly grateful for all that you have.


By your creator, and by the reflection in that mirror.  You are loved. Take the time for you!  It is within you right now to make your day more joyful, happier, and designed the way you choose. Its your turn to act! 


Smiles as always sent your way.  Today and always. : )

Your Daily Prayer 

Lord, thank you for today and all its majesty and beauty.

Thanks for the gift of our free will may we all choose wisely.

Thank you for all the abundance that I have in my life.  

Help me to understand all the possibilities that come along with this abundance.

May I stand out among the crowd and give freely the love that burns inside my spirit.


Help my free flowing spirit to feel your presence, your spirit, your love, your direction.

May I share a smile, a sincere smile and perhaps a kind word or deed.

Guide my light to another whose light may be dim.

Help me to live a life by design that I choose not one that is chosen for me.

Guide me and help me to rediscover my inner strength.  Help me to focus on love and sharing my love with others.



Help me to focus my strength on making a difference with the simple actions in life.


 On keeping things more attainable and filling this time of year with the simple things of life.

Giving thanks

Showing appreciation

Expressing the real reason for the season.

For the power of words and your words that you placed in the Bible.

Thanks for the gift of love may I understand that everything was designed with love and only man and his wrong intentions created hate.

Help all of us to become better givers of self.

Help us to become the gift that this world needs.

A bit kinder, more gentle, more in tune with the power and influence we really do all have.

To share to be that beacon of light.

To share a simple sincere smile.

To reach out with our hands and arms to help another person get a foot hold once again.

Help me to make a difference with a simple sincere smile, a kind word or even a act of kindness or love. 

I give you praise and the glory for all of that

With humility and gratitude I thank you

Amen

Sharing a smile ~  Sending you love ~  Pass it on
