God Lives Here

"Southern Comfort" an oil pastel painting by Debra Clemente

Why do you concern yourself so with the future? So you can worry about what bad could happen, or hold good thoughts and see it all well? Be your own fortune-teller. Predict the good. Predict the fabulous. Then prepare yourself to be amazed. Live in wonder. Live in awe. Live in joy. Live in love.

Divine Love is my power and my strength.

There has always been only one Truth, one Power. It is a matter of surrender. The surrender of one’s own will to the will of God, surrendering the power of your mind to the power of your heart. When heart and mind are one, you will see Me and know Me beloved, the Divine Presence within, your Calling, your Truth, your Name, your Glory. See your glory now. Praise it. Praise the lovely Presence, the Loving Presence you are. Take care. Treat yourself with love and respect. Love yourself first, then you can share this Love you know with all.

This is not a selfish thing. The love you are to feel is the divine grace, the love of God pouring forth. When you become selfless and think of God, the Eternal Good of Life in you and in all, then you will feel and know the glory of this manifestation in your thoughts, actions, word and deed. Allow this Love to fill you, to be you, to breath through you, knowing all is well. Now and forever claim this Love. Be this Love. Share and pour forth this Love. Be the clothes this Love wears. Be the arms and legs of this Love.

As you realize, you will live anew. You will naturally show up differently in the world. Your Love will magnetize more Love to you. You will become such a wonderfully magnetic presence of good in this world that all will desire your presence, for you are the Presence of God. Know this and you will be this. This truth is yours. Claim it now.

I am the most loving and ever expansive Love of God. The Presence and Power of God fills me and fulfills me. So be it. Amen.
    
Nothing can limit you now.

I used to desire to have control over my life, my heart, my mind and my experience, but I now see that that path did not lead me to peace. Serenity evaded me.

What do you acknowledge in life? What do you see and hear? What do you nod your head in agreement to? All is well. What you desire is all things higher. Raise your spirit, delight in all the good, for all goodness is yours as you believe. “We are hoping for the best,” versus “We are fearing the worst.” Both are mindsets with the same power, hope and fear. Both bring guaranteed results. Where do you put your power? Where do you put your trust? Trust in the best possible outcome for every situation.
What do you fear?

I don’t fear a thing. I fear nothing. I have no fear, for God lives here!
