To many people September signifies the return to regimentation and the mundane; while to others it is stimulating a new learning and the reinvigoration of friendships. Although much may appear to be the same it is all new, advanced by Life and personal stimulation. That which underlies it all is a Power, a Presence and an Intelligence which can inspire and at the same time direct and guide. There is an expectant joy as Divine Mind moves through in and throughout it all; and a Law that responds to your whims and concentrated desires, with a clear intention of saying ‘Yes’ to everything you could possibly imagine. It is as if God had created only you and did for only you - lived for only you. Without ego or self-centeredness you are in the midst of It all. So it is time to refresh, to renew and know that it was all meant for you. NOW!
LIVING THE PEACE
Faith is Power. The Universe was created and is sustained by the very thing we place our faith in. There is nothing to rely upon but the Absolute. Worldly speculation, hesitations and deliberations on violence impact our beliefs and taint our trust in Universal Perfection. For the optimum impact to reduce violence, take the quantum leap into a new dimension of consciousness. Allow yourself to “feel the feelings of peace” throughout your day. Observe your moods and attitudes; embrace the Greater in you; gently allow for peace-filled renewal at every turn.
LIVING DELIBERATELY
"Words spoken with conviction shape one’s life and experience. Consciously and unconsciously, we use them everyday to wound or heal, curse or bless, destroy or build. Each word is a seed. Planted in the soul of life, they put energy into motion giving form to thought and motivation to intention. Words are the sacred manifesting power of God within. Let them serve love.

Opening Up to a Higher Idea
Ideas spring forth from the subconscious. They are gifts from the Divine, entrusted to you for their working. Each time an idea comes to you no matter how grand, no matter its seeming impossibility, it is Divine, therefore possible. Look at these ideas as Reality pushing out toward conception. And, the smallest of nods from you will spark an energy, triggering a series of happenings, thus trumpeting in the fullness of all you have imagined. Trust and know: I am your partner through all endeavors.
Trust in me and I will bring forth an action that will actualize all your dreams. Trust in me, for You are the
greatest of all my creations; and together as One, all things shall be known as possible.
PRACTICAL SPIRITUAL
There is no greater comfort than to know that All is God. All flows of the Source of being. All is sustained within the fullness of that Truth. Nothing can destroy or interfere with the Good at the heart of It all; because It is all - One. This is a practical approach to life. It is not esoteric, obscure or mysterious. It is neither "wishy washy" - "willy nilly" nor anything beyond the realm of practical living. There is no God out there. It is all in here - within your heart, within your mind - within the framework of your being. You cannot step out of God, as you are immersed in the fullness of it All. That is Practical Spirituality. You can use this understanding in every area of your life: in all that you are and all that you do. You are never separated from It and It responds to your every need as if you were the only one It was acting through, effortless living through you, in all your ways.
Give way, allow - it is, as you, NOW.
PURPOSE and DIRECTION
Within all individuals is a voice of reason and a clear intuitive. As we travel the soul path, we need to take time to entertain the directives of our inner knowing, dispelling the need to reason. Signposts along the way indicate detours as the journey engenders challenges - apparent road blocks to our particular choices. New construction can be trying; yet, it is the adjustments we make in life which often become the most stimulating of life's journey. We are forever guided in the forging of new opportunities to live this life in fullness and joy. The journey, indeed, begins with the first step, which is NOW.
AWAKENING IN THE LIGHT
Whoever is planted in the Tao
Will not be rooted up.
Whoever embraces the Tao
will not slip away.
Her name will be held in honor
from generation to generation.
Let the Tao be present in your life
And you will become genuine.
Let it be present in your family
and your family will flourish.
Let it be present in your country
And your country will be an example
to all countries in the world.
Let it be present in the universe
and the universe will sing.
How do I know this is true?
By looking inside myself.
Lao-tzu ---Tao te Ching -- #54
BRING FORTH LOVE
Greater than fear is Love.
Love dissolves all fear, casts out all doubt and sets the captive free.
Love, like the River of Life, flows through me and refreshes me with its eternal blessings.
Love cannot be afraid; it is fearless and strong, and is mighty in its works.
It can accomplish all things through the inner Light of that faith in the All Good,
Which fills my very Being with a Powerful Presence.
Love casts out all fear.

TRANSCENDENCE
We all seek to know ourselves in a deeper way, to release the ache which haunts so many. Longing comes of a deep desire to renew with the Truth of Being. You are spiritual by nature; all anxiety emanates from the hunger to promote a greater understanding of this Truth. Transcendence is to rise into the fullness of who and what you are as Divine. Goddesses / Gods are you. Spirit has caused you of Itself to live and express as potential. No condition can refute the true nature of your Divinity, merely prompt its unfoldment. Awareness of Truth is genesis to transcendence. Be blessed, all that you are is unfolding as great and greater good.

PERSONALIZATION
In psychology, personality is understood as "… the patterns of behavior, thought, and emotion unique to an individual"; it is further believed that these traits are derived predominantly from the mimicking of parents and other childhood influences. In metaphysics we see personality as the projection of Spiritual attributes and qualities unique to the individual with ancillary traits associated to family. Each individual is a spark of Spirit, a projection of the Over Soul expressing as form on a great continuum. Dynamic Personality is the animation of our inherent reality, which is Spiritual.

RELATIONSHIP
All individuals are connected to the Source of Life; and yet it is far deeper than a mere connection. That which is God is in and through all creation - It is Creation Itself.
The manifest universe is the Body of God. Therefore, all that you are, and all that you could possibly be, emanates of the Source. Every individual is you, beyond the concept of brother and sister – each is the very Thing that is you. What you are to others is a reflection of who you are to yourself. This is the meaning of
Love thy neighbor as thyself. Don’t wait for someone else to change, initiate the change you are seeking. A shift in you will initiate understanding, communication and cooperation, with the promise of a new level of loving relationships – after all, It is All ONE.

A Fresh New Start
We each long for new beginnings, seeking any opportunity to bring in a New Year.
With every new moment is opportunity for change of direction: job, relationship,
prosperity, health, or the release from addiction. The life of our experience is ever
changing; yet, there remain two apparent diverging constants: the habitual recurrence
of unwanted behavior and that Infinite Power which sustains you in Its perfection. The
former is a changeable variant that takes constant diligence and a deepening depend-
ence upon the latter. Anything can be changed through the power of that Special
Something which indwells you.

In the Coming of the Light
A great artist working with wood chiseled out a magnificent horse. When asked how he had achieved such a splendid work he said that he allowed himself to come into a oneness with the tree, as the horse was always within the tree. He claimed that all he did was chisel away at what was not needed so as to expose the horse within.
Within you is an Inherent Radiance. As you give praise and thanks for this Truth, you allow for the revelation of your perfection. You are Magnificent. Gratitude, like the work of a master craftsman, will chip by chip reveal your brilliance and who God is as you this day, and all the days to follow.

Celebrating Your Divinity
Desire flows from within. Yet the mind cannot receive that which it refuses to entertain. Goodness is the Ultimate Reality which forever sustains us in Its care. ‘To know this Truth…” will create the means to free your desires into experience. Allow your mind to explore a higher Truth; that which is real and true will find It’s outlet through you. All that you seek is already a possibility in the Mind of God. The Source is forever projecting Itself in and through all your imagining. An open mind generates healthy, happy, fulfilled living. Nothing is beyond the one who will but recognize that good already is. Expect the best and it will find its outlet through you.

The Creative Nature of Being
Creative Mind is always creative. That is the law of its own being. It does not know that when we think thoughts of despair and entertain fear we do not desire it to create these conditions. But it must obey our thought. Since we have the power to choose that which we shall think, we can reject the thought which we do not want to objectify and consciously choose the thoughts which will create the type of experience which we desire.
This choice must be backed up by conviction. We must get the feeling of our thought objectifying. It is this conviction, or feeling, that gives thought its power. Our negative thoughts sometimes carry stronger emotional feelings than our positive thoughts. Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate strong feelings regarding our constructive desire. As we think about it and mentally live that which we desire to express, our conviction about it will grow.

Consciousness is Everything
Consciousness is our perceptions of life acting upon the subjective (soul) side of the Infinite Mind, thus creating the world of our experience. A shift in thinking will adjust
Individual Consciousness to create a shift in the experience.
The Collective Consciousness of the Race is directly influenced by the thoughts of each human being about the world.
God Consciousness is related to our Spiritual identity and is the higher idea sustained in the Absolute.
Individually, as we shift our thinking, we move up in accord with the higher God Consciousness (Christ-Self). This influences humanity for the better. Working on you reshapes the whole of humanity. By acting in love you can directly affect the Collective Consciousness of the Race, and the world as a whole can become more blissful.
The Qualities of God / Source
To better understand the nature of the individual we look first to the qualities of the Source of All-Being - God.
All emanates of It; and, so we surmise that It must be
Life , as life just is. So too it must be
Love, as the very desire to create and give of Itself to all is an act of love. The gift of inspiration, to the knowing of things most profound is an outflow of this love, hence,
Light. It is Almighty, Singular and One; and, therefore, It is
Power. Of this Absolute Power - without opposition - a state of
Peace most assuredly must follow. Out of this non-resistance we find symmetry, synchronicity and orderliness; a testament to a condition of
Beauty. The final result is a quality of
Joy, resultant of a state of creative satisfaction. To be of Source, these characteristics must also be with you - your truth - your essence - inherent in all that you are.

A New Take on Life
A Divine Intelligence permeates the universe. This is the Mind of God, the mind out of which you think and express. Robert Browning once wrote, "God is Love and God is Law." We have grown to understand this concept of Love; it is equally important to be aware of Law. The Law of Mind is the Creative Medium out of which the Divine Thinker causes spiritual ideas to formulate. You too are a thinker; as you think you create through the Creative Medium - the Law of Mind. Consciously creating is an act of love. Acting intentionally - committing ideas by way of thoughts and words - you verbalize through the Law of Mind concepts into form. In all our ways we must temper Love with Law consciously choosing that which is ideal and perfect for our lives.
