Search the Loving Each Day Quotes

Issue yourself a challenge and let that challenge manifest to you all the time: From this moment on, this moment of existence, I will start to find happiness and peacefulness in me. I will call upon the name of God morning, noon, and night. And I will totally dedicate and devote myself to the uplifting of every consciousness who comes by me. Therefore, I will smile inwardly and outwardly. I will not be ashamed of my love. I will demonstrate my love totally. I will just be there and allow everyone else the same space in which to unfold.

The experience of the Soul is part of everyone's experience, whether or not we are aware of it. Everyone on the planet is manifesting through Soul. Or should I say that every Soul on the planet is manifesting in a physical body? The more we identify with the Soul, the more we identify with the eternal and the qualities that are everlasting.

Use everything that works. Use it as long as it works. Then find the next thing that works. The idea is always to keep moving forward into each new experience .... because that will lead you into your own spiritual heart and the awareness of God.

John-Roger has said, "If you want to be happy, do happy things." That may sound simple, or maybe you think you do not know how to do happy things. Perhaps you blame someone or something, and that gets in the way of your knowing your happiness. Happiness is a state of mind, and your mind is free. You can experience happiness in your mind by having happy thoughts, and those happy thoughts have power. Regardless of what you are doing or what has happened, you can choose to be happy and share the blessings of your happiness.

Eternal vigilance is knowing that as long as you are in a physical body, you need to do those things that maintain your balance and uplift your Spirit. If you begin to let your discipline slide, the strength you have built can begin to go slack, and the subtle little thoughts against this person or that situation can begin to take their toll on your peace and happiness. There really is no rest on the spiritual path.

The Soul doesn't have to "look good," impress others, protect itself, or lie to get ahead. It reflects a purity that is of God. It reflects the simplicity of Spirit. This simplicity is often found in the quality of being present.

When we are hurt, we often close down our Spirit. Grief may be part of that, too, and we sometimes need to grieve that hurt in order to let it go. There is a very simple method of opening: when you feel that hurt, have somebody who loves you touch you. When you think back to any of those painful times, you can reach over to your husband and just hold his hand for a minute, letting that open up your Spirit. You will know it is open because you will start to get warm and full in there. You may find that sadness and tears come up, and that may go on for a period of time until that comes clean from you. It is almost like a cancer falling off. After you have experienced a time of clearing such as that, you can ask God to place the Light in all those places where the hurt and pain have been released. Eventually, the hurt will be gone and there will be only Light.

No matter how beautiful something looks in the world, no matter how it glitters or how glamorous it is, it's always going to corrupt and decay. You're the one who is going to have to maintain it and maintain it and maintain it, and that takes your energy. So make sure that it is important enough for you to put your energy into in a purposeful way, or drop it so you can go on to complete other things.

You can block your objectivity, your ability to perceive yourself and others in an objective and clear way, by entering into comparisons: "He meditates longer than I do" -- "I do more spiritual exercises than she does." "Those people are more devoted to God than I am" -- "These people aren't so good. Look at what they do." And so on. When you do this, you start looking at everyone as someone to compare yourself with, to see where you fit. You don't fit anywhere as long as you are in the process of comparison. There is no place for you. You're sitting on a timeline that extends forward or backward from today. Tomorrow, yesterday, tomorrow, yesterday, tomorrow, yesterday -- then you never seem to get here. To get right here and now, you ignore the timeline. To do this, first get yourself away from other people, even if you have to put plugs in your ears and a blindfold over your eyes. Do whatever it takes to get rid of all the distractions, the attractive disturbances all around you blocking you from awareness of your Self. Get your consciousness flowing in one positive, directed stream of energy.

You are always loved by God, and God's loving is limitless. God's loving does not stop upon any condition. So in the very smallest to the very greatest, God is loving.
