THOUGHT OF THE DAY!!!! *****I AM FORGIVING***** Forgiveness is the greatest gift you can give to another or yourself. Forgiveness can heal relationships which have been broken for lifetimes. Forgiveness is a process of giving up the false for the true, going beyond what has been done at the human level and seeing the Christ in the person. It is the process of erasing error from the mind and body. Forgiveness is not condoning what the person has done. It is letting the person and yourself off the hook-it is freeing you both.*****I am forgiving.***** I forgive everyone I perceive has ever wronged me in any way.*****I let them and myself off the hook.*****I free all of us from the bondage of pain that unforgiveness has caused.*****I realize we were doing the best we could do with what we know at the time.*****I forgive because I want to be forgiven.*****Thanks, God.*****And So IT IS!*****"And forgive us our offences, as we have forgiven our offenders."Matthew 6:12*****Peace, Love, Light & Rich Blessings to You and Yours Now and Forevermore.

Thank you Lord for all that we have. Amen

Sacred Heart I believe in Your love for me! Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY!!!! *****SUCCESS IS A JOURNEY, NOT A DESTINATION*****In our humanness, we tend to equate success with arriving at a particular destination. We may feel we will be successful when we get a certain degree, a particular job, get married, make a lot of money, get a particular kind of car or house. Then when we obtain these things, we don't feel successful or happy and go searching for yet another thing or person to make us feel successful and happy. Real success is not measured by the outer world. True success is a journey of the soul. It is a journey within to God where you will find true happiness and success.*****Success is a journey, not a destination.*****True success is a journey of my soul.***** I go within to God where I find true happiness and success.*****I seek God first and everything else is taken care of.*****Thanks, God.*****And So. It IS!***** "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.***** Matthew 6:33 Peace, Love, Light & Rich Blessings to You and Yours. ES

THOUGHT OF THE DAY!!!! *****I AM FREE TO BE ME *****Will the real you please stand up? No, not that part of you who is angry and resentful, unforgiving and judgmental.I mean the real you-your true identity; that part of you which expresses God so beautifully. You are free to be the real you at any time. It is a choice. You are a free to show the world the real you or you can choose to hide behind those ridiculous masks you think you wear so will. Make the choice to be free to express your true identity.***** I am free to be me.***** I take off my masks, for they no longer serve me.***** Instead, I express my true identity.***** As I express my true identity, I am forgiving, loving, accepting and caring.***** I express God beautifully as only I can.***** Thanks, God.***** And So IT IS! ..."Then the sons are free."***** Matthew 17:26 Peace, Love, Light & Rich Blessings to You and Yours.

Prayer for a Loved One with a Drug or Alcohol Problem: Dear Lord, watching someone I love being destroyed by drugs and alcohol seems more than I can bear. My threatening, arguing, rationalizing, and controllling have proved futile. The problem continues, and I am discouraged and frustrated. I realize I am powerless over this problem and powerless over anyone's life but my own. (Except through prayer.) Guide my words and actions so that I will say and do all I can to hasten recovery. Help me to also detach so that my loved one may admit the problem and seek help. May I take care of what is my responsibility and no more. Above all, Lord, help me let go and let You take care of this and all else in my life. May I never lose faith in Your power. Amen.

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY!! *****LAUGHTER FILLS MY HEART***** Most of us tend to take ourselves and the world entirely tooseriously. We get so caught up in the small stuff (and it's all small stuff), we forget to enjoy living. We forget to laugh at the ridiculousness of our seriousness. Laughter heals.Laughter is one of the best medicines.Laughing causes certain healing chemicals to be secreted into our body. Stop taking life and yourself so seriously.Laugh at your and other's mistakes. Laugh when things look bad. Laugh your way to a positive outcome.***** Laughter fills my heart.***** I stop taking myself and life so seriously.***** I remember not to sweat the small stuff and realize it's all small stuff.***** Laughter heals me.***** I laugh when things appear bad.***** I laugh my way to a positive outcome.***** Thanks, God.***** "Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the heathen, the Lord has done great things for them."***** Psalm 126:2***** Peace, Love, Light & Rich Blessings to You and Yours.
