A Wave

January 19, 2025

“My sponsor has been telling me for years to spend extra time in meditation; contemplation of the One who presides over us all.”

Three readings. A song that says the rest. And inspiration for whatever this day is here to teach.

Change Your Life

Adapted from Change Your Life

The ideals of hope and faith are rooted in the belief that change is possible. It opens us to the possibility that deep down within each of us is new power. The first step opens the door to bring a new life.

Francine Klagsbrun

Self-realization is not a matter of withdrawal from a corrupt world or narcissistic contemplation of oneself. An individual becomes a person by enjoying the world and contributing to it.

trust-your-inner-self

Wayne Dyer

See the unfolding of God in everyone & in all life. Know that all are equal in the invisible realm of the Spirit. Treasure the magnificent being that you are; recognize first & foremost you're not here as a human being only. Each one of us is a spiritual being having a human experience.

A Deep Breath of Life

Alan Cohen

We can make our life a work of art by paying attention to the details of daily living. Let everything be a dance in which we create poise and grace; to remain conscious throughout the day, and to bring Your poetic mastery to all I do. Help me remember to live my life and glorify the presence of Your Spirit.

Twenty-Four Hours a Day

Hazelden Foundation

Meditation for the Day “I believe that God had already seen my heart's needs before I cried to Him, before I was conscious of those needs myself. I believe that God was already preparing the answer. God does not have to be petitioned with sighs, tears and much speaking before He reluctantly loses the desired help. He has already anticipated my every want and need. I will try to see this as His plans unfold in my life. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may understand my real wants and needs. I pray that my understanding of those needs and wants may help to bring the answer to them.”
