The compassionate
love of God lives in me.
When my heart is heavy, others may reach out to comfort me. Their words ease the hurt. Their loving presence
soothes me. When my own heart responds to another's pain, I feel the same love of God flowing in and through me.
Compassion is the opening of our hearts, one to another,
in times of sadness or loss. We are all connected. I need never feel alone. The compassionate love of God is with me. Sometimes I receive comfort, and other times, I offer
comfort. Through all of life's experiences, I am grateful to receive and express God's love in action. The compassionate love
of God lives in me.
For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you.--Isaiah 54:10

In the NowI live in the now and draw from each moment all the good it holds for
me, and accept all prosperity and abundance; and remember that God is unlimited and wishes for us to have it all, please allow
us to learn to accept it.My future holds a field of infinite possibilities. My past holds the things that have already happened,
whether they brought joy or challenge. But this present moment is the only time I can create my life experiences and my relationship
with God and others.In this now moment, I keep my thoughts positive and choose words and actions that invite others to join
in a world of peace, abundance and harmony. Centered in God's presence within me and everyone, I draw from each moment all
the good it holds.Aware of the unlimited possibilities of the future and mindful of all I have learned from the past,
I give thanks for this now moment.Create
in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me.--Psalm 51:10

ProsperityI
am grateful for the divine flow of good in my life.When I hear the word "prosperity," my first thought may
be of my bank account. In that moment, I may feel either relief or anxiety. I understand, though, that prosperity is not defined
by merely dollars and cents.True prosperity is about spiritual wealth. It's about knowing that my true source
is not my employer, my partner or my parent. God is the source of my greatest good.When I am aware of the ever-flowing
wisdom and grace of God's spirit, I cannot help but create prosperity in all areas of my life--in my relationships, my health,
my wealth. As I focus on the Truth, abundance flows. I am rich in all ways, and I am grateful.You know
in your hearts and souls, all of you, that not one thing has failed of all the good things that the Lord your God promised.--Joshua

Faith is my solid foundation.
In the middle of a forest, a
seed falls from a tree, takes root in the soil and begins to grow. Even in the densest forest, the seed will sprout, become
a sapling and stretch its branches toward the light. Like that seed, my faith grows continually, nourished by the foundation of prayer
in my life. I nurture my faith with positive thoughts, words and actions. I reach out to others and welcome the wisdom and
understanding of people who have walked the path before me. Just as a tree shelters those around it, my faith provides me with comfort, reassurance
and inspiration. It brings me peace and urges me onward. I am rooted in faith.
Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt ... even if you say to this mountain, "Be lifted up and
thrown into the sea," it will be done.--Matthew 21:21

Guidance
Attuned to
God, I am wise and understanding.
Before I act, I choose first to be still and become attuned to God. As I pause, I open myself
to His divine guidance and receive new insights into the situations of my life so that I may speak with wisdom and compassion.
I am guided to wise choices and I see clearly the right path for me to take, and I step forward in confidence. My heart
is filled with understanding and forgiveness, and my relationships bring joy and comfort.
If I ever doubt myself, I know that God's guidance is always available.
When I am attuned to God, I am wise and understanding.
My mouth
shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.--Psalm 49:3
