7/31/10 Creative Intelligence stands ready to receive your honest feelings and to bathe you in love and mercy. You are living through grace; everything that is. Your thoughts, your life, your dreams come true. You are what you choose to be, and what you think about all day. You are as unlimited as the endless universe. Think peace and love. Endless love..….
7/30/10 Once upon a time, in a time now forgotten, we were all children who knew how to play. Maybe forgot, but not wasted. Nothing that once made us feel happy and fulfilled is ever lost. There is that beautiful, playful thread that runs through our lives, enticing us to rediscover this thread before the joy of living unravels. Truly nothing is to be expected but the unexpected. Seek and find a solitary pleasure that will make you jump out of bed each morning! Awaken in awe to the surprises that await you.
7/29/10 Seldom is joy found in places we search for it. Rather it comes wrapped in small packages: a hand to hold, a smile given or received, children’s laughter, and the inner knowing that we are truly loved by a Divine Spirit of the Universe (God). Let us rejoice and be glad! We only have this moment to experience joy.
7/28/10 Have you become addicted to predictability? The secret is that living and learning go hand in hand; existing and expiring do too. To children learning is natural; to adults it’s a nuisance. You limit God when you say you can’t change, discounting His power and denying His presence. Don’t let the concrete of predictability settle around you. Concrete sinks fast! Discover something new with an enthusiastic zest for adventureJ
7/27/10 Do you pay attention to the needs of your Spirit? Make the time to quench your soul’s thirst. Our souls grow and blossom when nurtured with consistent rays of love and attention mixed among the busy hours of the day. Don’t let a drought leave you lifeless. Listen attentively, and freely sow soul-seeds~prayer with humility, bursts of gratitude, service with compassion, etc. Bloom through the weeds with joyful enthusiasm!
7/26/10 Do not allow the dangerous luxury of shrinking back from life in despair from shame or guilt. Turn within your soul for spiritual comfort. You are a child of the Universe, worthy of love, care, and respect. Your spirit is grounded in dignity, which is solid and enduring. Build your life on the rock of faith, and allow your heart to be a fortress protected by love and forgivenessJ
My experience has been that gratitude is an action, and actions speak louder than words....7/25/2010
7/25/10 Really contemplate this statement by A. Huxley: “Experience is not what happens to a man. It is what a man does with what happens to him.” Embrace your current reality and acknowledge its gifts. Be open to receive good from all sources and relish it’s flow to you at any time. Allow your life to expand through loveJ
7/24/10 The teacher appears when you suddenly understand something you’ve understood all your life but in a new way. A change in perception is a miracle and as radical as turning on the lights in a darkened room. Our eyes are opened, and we see what we did not see before. Sight brings insight, which can be joyful as well as painful. Face the truth, and invite the Sunlight of the Spirit in to illuminate your life.
7/23/10 Each thought we have carries with it spiritual power, a tug toward or away from God. No thought is purely neutral. Every thought is either enabling and strengthening you to be able to cope with reality to live a spiritual God-filled life or one that steals the “life” out of you. Thoughts that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.
7/22/10 Helen Keller said some amazing things while being locked in a world without sight or hearing. She believed life was given to us so we could grow in love. God was in her as the color and fragrance of a flower~the light in her darkness; the Voice in her silence. Courage conquered over her disability, thereby strengthening the will to live a loving, exemplary life with a passion for God. Amazing faith!

Author - Linda BeckwithI believe everyday is a gift from our Creator. As we age, some may fear the unknown~death. People who become aware of their mortality find they have actually gained freedom to live. They have found they have an appreciation for the present. We are all here to contribute love, forgiveness, and service. As I age, I want to nourish my soul's purpose. If we are open to grace, people will appear in our lives to encourage growth of our souls. Allow me to provide daily nourishment through loving words, because joy is our birthright. I call these my daily "Truth Vitamins" for spiritual health. Join me in discovering together our inner soul purpose with "Love~that's all there is". Archives
