Practical Peace


Once again, I am overflowing with ideas.

I am so blessed by the Universe.

I study my inspirational writings and they take practical form.

Ideas translate into actions and products.

A new community location for study appears out of an adversarial position.

Doubt is replaced by calm certainty.

Order embraces abundance.

Abundance embraces order.

Things go in a flow today.

There is balance and harmony.

I am fed and I prosper.

No harm comes to me.

I have calm and fulfilling activities.

My business takes its next steps forward.

An old vessel empties and another vessel is filled.

I sit and bask in the presence and harmony, guidance and protection of the Universe.

The Peace of Doing My Work First


It is a new thing to realize that my work is the most important thing I have to do.

Not attending someone else’s meeting.

Not being a member of an organization.

But doing my work, developing my ideas, sharing my inspiration.

It is an impulsion I would not wish to ignore.

It is my most fulfilling feeling.

It satisfies me, excites me and gives me a sense of fulfilling purpose.

Since I am working from within to “release the hidden splendor”, there is a flow.

I receive, then I write, I share.

This is my day.

Everything else flows from it.

Because I'm True


I have great peace in my life because I am true to myself.

I did not know how to do this before.

I knew how to be loyal, obedient and disciplined.

But I did not know how to discover the value of myself.

It has taken a while, and I am grateful for all the signposts that led me on my way.

I have discovered the ideas that mean the most to me.

I have been faithful and very happy developing them.

I have been led to share them in specific ways.

I know that when I do this, I feel the best I have ever felt.

I have continued in my new path because of this feeling.

I am increasing in my self-respect the more I follow my own path.

Even though I am sometimes tempted to follow the old footsteps because of the old habits, I find my way back very quickly.

In fact, I no longer veer off my path.

I look over there every once in a while, and what I see confirms that I am where I most want to be.

I am living so much better now that I am true to myself.

Empty and Full


Today, as I am emptying my house into boxes, I am filling it up with love and appreciation for the years of growth and spiritual development.

These walls hold a manifestation of good practice, a manifestation of protection and nurturing.

These rooms are filled with the fruit of interactions that now extend far into the atmosphere and into the future.

I am full of gratitude for the safety and nurturing provided within our house.

I am filling up my boxes with ideas to be written up and passed along.

I am shedding old belongings and ideas that do not belong with me any more.

This is the most peaceful move, or “shift”, I have ever been involved in.

Flowing Peacefully


When everything is in balance, there is a peaceful flow to the day.

Work and inspiration, preparing food and cooking it, household cleaning activities, taking care of children all fit in a smooth and balanced weave throughout the day.

For me, preparing for this peaceful flow means inspirational study and writing.

When the sense of peace overflows from my study and writing, then it manifests in the other ways.

Putting my study and writing first, and then interspersing it throughout the day even more, lets it integrate into everything I am doing.

I am finding that peace is one of the elements that I include.

It is expressed in my work and conversations.

I am not hurried or harassed.

I am balanced and happy.

Everything that needs to be included is.

Nothing is left out.

There is always time to include what needs to be included.

I am preparing and manifesting peace throughout my entire day.

Creating from Peace


I am so peaceful now that I know how to lean into all my creative ideas.

They collect and accumulate for me in the Universe.

So, when I need one, I just go within and listen.

Now, that I have that as a practice, it is so fun and peaceful to go to either the list of rough drafts I have written down or to listen for a new idea.

Today, I have just accessed my list and pulled out the next four drafts to turn into Music Books which I will post at www.MusicandBooksforChildren.com.

Two of them have all the elements and two of them need some more research and creativity.  That is what I will be busy with for the next couple of days.

Now that I have found my niche and fulfilling work, I am quite peaceful and happy and fulfilled.

I have a never-ending Source.

I have learned how to use the computer.

And I love my clientele.

What a wonderful and peaceful combination.

Daily Peace


I am noticing a calmer, smoother flow in all my activities.

Even in the midst of large, life-changing ones, there is such deep calm and peace.

In the little things, I am finding myself working with a distinct lack of franticness.

Each step I take is prepared, and not by me.

Things are prepared for me to do and I am doing them.

There is no backtracking, no second -guessing.

Each step is prepared to be taken, and once taken, the next step is prepared.

I am no longer looking ahead, because what is here is so clear.

I know that whatever is next is also clear.

This daily peace extends into my work, my chores, my conversations, everything.

It is a permeating peace.

I see things that used to be disturbing, and now all I see is how they are prepared, too.

It is all for the peace.
