In the Midst of Change or Chaos

Life has presented me with an assortment of challenges over the last few weeks. With an upcoming surgical procedure (out patient) and the wider world issues coming to me from over the airwaves, I have needed to draw on these lessons from Unity's Daily Word.

*  Creativity: From what I will eat to planning what I want to accomplish each day, I embrace it all as an exercise in using the power of my imagination to consciously create my life. (May 26, 2018 Daily Word)

*  Quest: The difference between a challenge and an adventure is in our attitude and perspective about it. Someone may suggest, "You are lost." My reply is, "I am just exploring." I confidently answer Spirit's call to be more fully the love that I am and to express more of the infinite power of love within me. From Micah 4:2: Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord ... that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths. (June 1, 2018 DW)

*  Direction: My life is a journey, and although I may not know what lies ahead, I know my way is illumined by my inner light. Whenever I need clarity on the path I choose, I turn to my divine light within and let it shine in and through me. If I'm not sure of a next step, I spend time in quiet reflection and listen to divine wisdom. (June 11, 2018 DW)

*  Change: Every aspect of my life is aligned with divine order. Just as day follows night, my life unfolds in divine order. Even in the midst of change or chaos, I can trust that there is an underlying force for good. Any challenge in my life is transformed into an opportunity. I take the next right steps in my life with clarity and ease. From Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (June 12, 2018 DW)

Calling these challenges adventures doesn't really work for me. Calling these challenges opportunities does work for me. At any given moment I have to opportunity to know that I create my life, that I will answer Spirit's call to express the infinite power of love from within me, that my future is illumined by my inner light, and that my life unfolds in divine order.

When I doubt, when I struggle with fear, which I have in these recent weeks, I call myself back as quickly as possible to the Spirit principles I've highlighted here.

With love and encouragement to us all,
