Here are three ways to search through the history of over 5,000 Loving Each Day quotes by John-Roger and John Morton.
If we have a clear intention toward a spiritual pursuit and are reading uplifting material or meditating on the intention, Spirit and mind will begin to converge. We achieve a heightened state of awareness, of knowing. As the point of convergence turns, our perception -- the way we see the world -- turns with it. We actually look into the unknown. When our moments of convergence end, we won't remember anything, even though we understood it at the time. (This sounds as if I am describing early senility but, trust me, I am talking about the spiritual process.) We know something happened, but we can't quite put it together. When when we return to the heightened state of awareness, that understanding returns to us, and we can't imagine how we could have forgotten.
You will never be given anything you can't handle.
Accept what is going on in the physical without judgment and you will be able to handle things much more successfully than ever before. Similarly in Spirit, accept what occurs and what doesn't, with no judgment, and that acceptance will contribute to your spiritual progress.
Perhaps you have noticed that blessings are extensions of one another: Loving is an extension of God, caring is an extension of loving, sharing is an extension of caring. As we are more powerfully invoking and expressing our God consciousness, sharing becomes a natural way of being. It is allowing ourselves to be extended.
When you awaken each morning, it might be nice if you asked for the peace of God to be with you and all you touch that day. If you are one with God's consciousness, no man can come against you. If you ask for this attunement each day (and it doesn't matter what words you use), it will change the quality of your life. You may find yourself talking less. To find the peace within, it's often necessary to become quiet verbally so that you can hear the voice of love from within that tempers all association in the outer world.
Moving to a higher level of awareness can be a little disconcerting and uncomfortable. It is unfamiliar territory. You might wish to go back to where you were. It's easy to slip back, to feel secure, comfortable, and familiar. Believe it or not, some people call that freedom. But all it is is a comfortable prison. Going back means that you are not handling and integrating your alignment with the Spirit -- which is continually moving.
The only wrong way to do spiritual exercises is not to do them.
Spirit is ruthless, not out of malice, but out of purposefulness. When we are moving in the same direction as Spirit (which we will know by checking inside with the part of us that is attuned to these things), we are aligned. When we go off on a tangent, Spirit goes right on without us. Spirit does not stop to accommodate us. We follow Spirit, not vice-versa.
I have learned to distinguish that aspect of health that is a loving consciousness, a caring, sharing consciousness, a vital consciousness. We all have the power to invoke that blessing no matter what condition we find ourselves.
We're creating all the time; we're either promoting, creating, or allowing everything that's happening to us. We even allow annoying things to happen until we realize that we don't need them anymore. Then we move to another level, and we are able to change patterns of procedure by switching the attitude.
