Wisdom at Your Fingertips
“I have no cause for anger or for fear, for You surround me. And in every need that I perceive, Your grace suffices me.” The images you think you see in the world that you may cite as the cause for your anger or your fear are images that you yourself have projected onto the
“I am not asked to make a sacrifice to find the mercy and the peace of God.” The Peace and Benevolence that characterizes Source is part of you, since you are an extension of Source and the doorway through which Source flows into extension and expansion. Thinking in terms of sacrifice is indicative of a
“Let me remember that there is no sin.” Sin stands for missing the mark. It is a product of an imagination run wild. After all, Creation is good, lovely, peaceful, free, exuberant, charitable, abundant, perfect. How can something that holds only goodness and benevolence miss a mark? It is impossible. What is possible, however, is

“Let miracles replace all grievances.“ It is not like you have to evoke miracles somehow. They happen naturally all the time everywhere, for they are the natural way Creation expresses. When you allow your mind to occupy itself with holding a grievance, with worrying or with being depressed and so forth, you in fact allow
“I am entitled to miracles.” A miracle is a shift in perception, an inner occurrence, that releases you from the world you made. They happen in accordance with the laws of Love, Benevolence, Inspiration, Joy, Freedom, Peace, and so forth. Miracles are therefore naturally happening all the time everywhere.

“I am under no laws but God’s.“ What are God’s laws, you would no doubt want to know. And rightly so. After all, if you are not subject to any of the commonly known and practiced laws of society, health, economics, and so forth, then what are the laws that do apply to you? Think
