Life Loves ME!

“Everything happens for a reason”. “There are no coincidences in life”. “We all meet for a purpose”. We all have heard and used these phrases when we feel like there’s nothing else we can do in a given situation. This is what I consider “surrendering to what is”.

So, how do we “surrender to what is”? In my case, positive affirmations help me tremendously to set the tone for my day. “Today is a new day” is one of my favorite of all affirmations, followed by, “Today is a prosperous, friendly, beautiful, creative and productive day for me. That it is filled with joy. That I welcome change and adventure”. These and so many more encouraging, life changing affirmations are inspired by Louise Hay, who I consider to be one of  my favorite teachers that has helped me heal emotionally, physically and spiritually. I have learned, and still am learning, to release, relax, let go and surrender by thinking, saying, visualizing, and feeling positive, inspiring, beautiful affirmations…or prayers, if you will.

For me, it is no accident or coincidence that the book, “A Return to Love” fell of the shelf a couple of days ago, so to speak,  and the section “surrender” called my most needed attention. What I learned from this section is that there is a beautiful intelligence or force so much bigger than us that lovingly and unconditionally takes care of our challenges, whatever they are…and helps us to (be willing to) forgive.

I am convinced that this book showed up in my life at the right time. It is so good that I’ve pretty much highlighted every other paragraph in the first 60 pages so far! It is so good and true to me, that here’s one of my new daily affirmations from now on: “Dear God, my desire, my priority is inner peace. I want the experience of love. I don’t know what would bring that to me. I leave the results of this situation in your hands. I trust your will. May your will be done. Amen”.

Just like our body so intelligently breathes our lungs and digests our food without the need of our control, so does this wonderful intelligence that is within us carry our concerns, sorrows, needs, wants, desires. All we need to do is trust our divine wisdom…or have “faith”, if you will.

To me, positive affirmations are my healing prayers; I think them, say them out loud, visualize them in my mind’s eyes, and feel them in my core as it they are already happening. And when they happen and I feel them, healing begins!

So, as the affirmation set for this month suggests, let us all notice and experience the everyday blessings that flow through us naturally and effortlessly. 🙂

I feel so that I heal! Life Loves Me! And so it is!
