| 'You are infinitely more powerful than you ever imagined.'
So think as if your every thought were to be etched in fire
Upon the sky for all and everything to see.
For so, in truth, it is.
So speak as if the entire world were but a single ear
intent on hearing what you say.
And so, in truth, it is.
So do as if your every deed were to recoil upon your heads.
And so, in truth it does.
So wish as if God himself had need of you. His life to live.
And so, in truth, he does."

| I am the wind and the rain.
I am the sun and all that shines.
I am that which holds the heavens and all that does not shine.
I am the all of all-ness and the no-thing of nothingness.
I am you - the very source of your being.
That which breathes you as you breathe me.
I am that which creates through my breath and the sounding forth of my words.
I am that which uses care in making myself known to you, for unto man comes a mighty resistance to claiming me as I Am That I Am.
For in so doing, one claims the self as I Am That I Am.
I reside in your heart and in your mind.
I reside in the all of you, your fingers and toes, your organs, your emotions, your thoughts and indeed in your actions.
For good or for naught matters not for I do not judge myself.
I am love, so great and so vast, that I reside in a state of namelessness and formlessness for no-thing can I create can contain me, for I Am That I Am.
To limit myself by these very words diminishes my being by encapsulating my breath, my words into the world of form.
Each word I speak, in this moment, is creating for I am that which manifests myself without definition or containment.
As the rock creates a ripple in the pond, I create ripples with my breath. Upon each exhale, I send myself forth to materialize in the world of man through action, through inspiration, through the very beingness of the hearts of my heart.
If you, who is me, visualize me, I am not containable in a single form, or any form for I am un-ending - the alpha and omega. I have no face or body. I have no religious right or left. I have no direction. I possess no correctness and know not the concept of wrong, of judging, of being evil or of being good.
If you welcome me into your thinking, feeling, acting body, you may find that as I am unleashed in the power of one, who is you, creation is everflowing, unstoppable.
I surround you now in fields and flowers, stars and comets, rain and thunder. I surround you now in the suit of skin that cloaks your bodyworks, your organs and cells and arteries.
I am all that and more.
Yet, oftentimes, you see me not in the workings, the appearance of all things for you understand not the mind of god, which is no mind at all, for I Am Love.
A love so vast it responds immediately to the smallest cry, the tiniest of whimpers of desire. If one wishes to experience the thrill of terror, one will surely find terror on the doorstep. If one holds the smallest particle of doubt, doubt will surely appear. For I hold no limit in my expression.
I Am That I Am.
You have seen me in your lover's eyes and the tiny fist of a newborn child.
You have seen me in the warships and in the bloom of a flowering plant.
You have witnessed my phenomenal appearance with every breath you take, in the all of which you are surrounded.
You live, move and have your being in me as I, in you.
We are not separate.
I am you.
I am divine perfection.
I am known to you.
I live in you.
I express in you.
I am creator and creation in one.
I am unity.
Love lies in Service.
Only that which is done,
not for fame or name,
and not for appreciation or thanks,
is Love's Service.

| If there's light in the soul There'll be beauty in the person.
If there's beauty in the person There'll be harmony in the house.
If there's harmony in the house There will be order in the nation.
If there's order in the nation There'll be peace in the world.

| TRADITIONAL BUDDHIST PRAYER
Oneness of Life and Light, Entrusting in your Great Compassion, May you shed the foolishness in myself, Transforming me into a conduit of Love. May I be a medicine for the sick and weary, Nursing their afflictions until they are cured; May I become food and drink, During time of famine, May I protect the helpless and the poor, May I be a lamp, For those who need your Light, May I be a bed for those who need rest, and guide all seekers to the Other Shore. May all find happiness through my actions, and let no one suffer because of me. Whether they love or hate me, Whether they hurt or wrong me, May they all realize true entrusting, Through Other Power, and realize Supreme Nirvana. Namo Amida Buddha |

| I may never see tomorrow, there’s no written guarantee, And the things that happened yesterday, belong to history.
I cannot predict the future, I cannot change the past, I have just the present moment, I must treat it as my last.
I must use the moment wisely, for soon it will pass away, And be lost to me forever, as part of yesterday.
I must exercise compassion, Help the fallen to their feet, Be a friend to the friendless, Make an empty life complete.
The unkind things I do today may never be undone, Any friendships that I fail to win may nevermore be won,
I may not have another chance, On bended knee to pray, And I thank God with a humble heart, For giving me today.

| I Asked God
I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom and God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for prosperity and God gave me a brain and brawn to work.
I asked for courage and God gave me danger to overcome.
I asked for love and God gave me troubled people to help.
I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted and I received everything I needed. ~ Author Unknown |
