My Little Book Of Moments...

January 1

As a child I remember running barefoot in the rain.

Much of the time as we get older, we allow life's worries to imprison our spirits. That carefree spirit that God gave us seems to disappear. We stop living and exist only in the chaos and misery that many times we ourselves create. Staying in the moment, experiencing all of lifegood and bad, will keep us free from the dark places of our mind.

Moment by moment, I will recapture my innocence and I will run freely, as a child, barefoot in the rain.

January 2

To be filled with the spirit of life, we must release the darkness within.

When I become preoccupied and obsessed with negative energy, I shut myself off from God and life. When I am all wrapped up in my own tiny world of me, me, and me, life is passing me by, one moment at a time.

Moment by moment, I will free my spirit of darkness by allowing God's light to take its place.

January 3

Heads or tails on a glass table is optional.

There is always another way to look at any situation we find ourselves a part of. Evil has battled with good since the beginning of time. We may choose to be negative or positive. They both are two sides of the same emotion. They both stimulate energy.

Moment by moment, I will try to see the positive and dwell on the good. I will not leave my spirit to chance.

January 4

When we choose to ignore our inner most longings, we lie to the spirit within.

We all have dreams that we must pursue, and we should not deny ourselves healthy goals. Each experience in life, whether painful or pleasant, is an opportunity for spiritual growth. We can never know joy if we have not known pain. We must face who we are, what we are, and where we are.

Moment by moment, I will accept whatever God puts in my path. I will not go over it, under it, or around it. I will experience it, live through it, and come out on the other side.

January 5

When trouble comes along, get out of the way and let it pass!

It has been said that we create our own chaos so that we can go through the turmoil of proving to others and ourselves that we can get out of it or fix it. True acceptance of whatever comes along will bring the peace, which passes all understanding.

Moment by moment, I will learn to be patient, and not cause my own self-destruction. I will keep out of trouble's way.

January 6

The realization of the totalities of life is to contemplate that we are one with all.

It is hard to remember that as individuals we make up a very small part of the big picture.
