Have within you an imaginary candle flame that burns brightly regardless of what goes before you. Let this inner flame represent for you the idea that you're capable of manifesting miracles in your life.

Live today. Remove all blame from your vocabulary. Catch yourself when you find yourself using your past history as a reason for your failure to act today, and instead say, 'I am free now to detach myself from what used to be.'

Your will is the ego part of you that believes you're separate from others, separate from what you'd like to accomplish or have, and separate from God. It also believes that you are your acquisitions, achievements, and accolades. This ego will wants you to constantly acquire evidence of your importance... On the other hand, your imagination is the concept of Spirit within you. ...with imagination, we have the power to be anything we desire to be.

By being peaceful, quiet, and receptive, you pattern yourself in the image of God, and you regain the power of your Source.

I'm not saying that a child who was abused or beaten or abandoned made that happen, but your reaction to it is always yours.

Trusting yourself is trusting the wisdom that created you.

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.
