Loving Yourself

Declare, many times every day, “I love me.  I love the total me.”   If you had done this every day of your life from the moment you were born, you would be a different being.  But start now.  Say, “I love me.  I love the total me” one hundred times a day.  Then, declare, over and over, “I am fantastic.  I am a really great person.”  You can say that to yourself, but if anyone asks you how you feel, just reply, “Fantastic!” – no matter how sick you are.  The body complies with whatever you declare.  All these years you’ve been rejecting your body.  Now you need to work hard to change both your conscious and subconscious thoughts.

The next step is to love every part of your body: “I love my eyes.  I love my brain.  I love my feet.  I love my stomach.  I love my liver.”  Do this every day and you will be renewed and revitalized.  You are loving yourself Divinely, and the power of this can change every part of you.  (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

The Christ Within

As Jesus showed us, a Christed being is different from one who wants everything for self.  The Christed being has broken free of self.  The Christed being serves all of mankind.  This is the key to becoming the Christ. 

You can begin being the Christ by saying silently, “The Christ is now alive and well in me, whole and complete.  The Christ in me is accomplishing my Divine mission.  The Christ in me is accomplishing this Divine mission, which is good for all of man.”  As soon as we begin to help all of man, we start to become the Christ. 

Another prayer for declaring the Christ within is: “The Christ in me fills my being with Light and Love.  The Christ in me fills everyone with Light and Love.  The Christ in each of us merges us with each other.  We are One.  And from this Oneness, the Christ fills Earth with Light and Love.  The Christ fills the universe with Light and Love.  The Christ brings Oneness with the Creator, with the Creator in each one.” (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

Decision Making

Even simple decisions -  Should I go to the right?  To the left?  Or straight? - let even these be decisions from the Divine within.  Every day you are making decisions that seem to affect only you.  But if you go about this haphazardly, you may have missed a Divine opportunity. 

When decisions will affect others dramatically, these decisions must come from deep prayer, rather than from selfish desires or self-aggrandizement.  A dramatic decision that affects other people can only be rendered after much prayer and consideration, including input from people attuned to other possibilities, people who are on the pathway to the Christ.

Get in the flow of the River of Life in advance of taking an action.  All will benefit in a fantastic way. Everything you do should be of a Divine nature.  Every moment is a Divine moment.  Every decision is an important, fantastic decision.    Everything is important.  Every breath you take is Divine.

With this perspective, there is a deep knowing of, “I am in the right place at the right time, doing and saying the right thing for the good of all.”  (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

Creating Peace

Most people in the world today recognize the great need for peace.  Murder is repugnant to everyone.  But when nations go to war, we don’t consider killing to be murder.  Then, killing becomes a Cause – a Cause worth fighting for and supposedly blessed by God.  We have a Christian commandment to love our neighbors.  And yet, Christians have fought Christians.  It doesn’t make sense. 

However, we can change all of this.  We can change that fear consciousness to Light.  We can replace war consciousness with Peace, Light, and Love.  We can create Peace within our genes and within our innermost selves.   One way to do it is to say, “The Creator in me creates Light, Love, and Peace throughout my being.  The Creator in me replaces the war consciousness throughout my being with Peace.  The Creator in me replaces the war consciousness around planet Earth and in all peoples of the Earth with Peace.  The Creator in me creates Peace in every atom, every cell, every gene, and every kingdom that exists on planet Earth.”  (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

Our Ultimate Purpose

The ultimate goal of each person is Oneness with the Father.  Jesus said, “The things I do you can do and greater.”  He also said, “I and my father are one, yet the Father doeth the works.”  This gives us a goal, a Divine mission in itself. 

We should be helped and trained from before conception, during birth and early childhood, to accomplish that mission.  Not only should the parents help, but if there are siblings, they should also help.  Everyone should help that child know and achieve his or her Divine mission. (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

Balancing Male and Female

The male and the female are in each of us.  Every individual on the planet is a combination of male-female within themselves.  The average male is seventy percent male and thirty percent female.  The average female is seventy percent female and thirty percent male.  

The true objective for each one of us is to be totally balanced, male and female.  Not fifty-fifty, but one hundred percent of each: one hundred percent female and one hundred percent male.

We limit ourselves by adopting male or female traditions.  To say that you are a male or a female is a limitation.  It binds everyone.  Every time we do that we bind our fellow man.  We are declaring, “Stay down and be in your two-by-four body.”  That must change.  It must change into the realization of true man – not male or female but balanced male-female, in each person.  There are no two-by-four bodies in Divine Beinginess.  The only reality is that of Light, of Love, of Spirit, Joy, and Mind – all of the Divine attributes merged into one: that is you!  (from Leading a Life of Prayer)

Finding Your Divine Mission

How do we find out what our Divine mission is?  The Divine reveals all. The how-to is: every day say, “The Divine in me reveals my mission” or “The Creator within reveals my Divine mission to me.”  It will be revealed.  It will come to you.  It has to!  The Creator does not reject anyone. 

To receive and then start doing your Divine, Christed mission, declare, “The Christ in me reveals to me my Divine mission.  The Christ in me accomplishes my Divine mission today.”

Each person’s Divine mission is distinct.  Your Divine mission may be simply to love your mate or to learn to love a mosquito Divinely. Learning how to love something like a mosquito may be the first thing that comes to you as a Divine mission, because once you learn how to love, truly love, Divinely love anything, then you can move on to some fantastic things.  Or it may be that you are given the mission of loving Divinely a whole continent or the entire planet.  (from Leading a Life of Prayer)
