I sit in prayer this morning, holding each one of you in the Light of Love, in the Light of Peace, in the Light of Radiant Health and Wholeness. As I emerge from my quiet time this morning, I am hearing “We are blessed now.”

It is so easy to allow my mind to wander back in time, to the good old days, or worse…to that time when I should have…

Even more than looking back, I can get caught up in looking ahead. Of course, there is a certain amount of planning for the future that is healthy. Where I can get in trouble is thoughts like, “As soon as I get my new carpet in, then…” and “When life settles down a bit, then…” The assumption is that once I get to some unknown time in the future, then life will be better…then I’ll start exercising… then… The problem with that pattern of thought is that I miss the blessings that are right in front of me. I Am blessed now.

No matter what is occurring, we are being showered with countless blessings. All it takes is a change in perspective to see them. When we begin to expect every cloud to have a silver lining, it will. When we have faith that everything we are experiencing is happening for the Highest Good of All, and I look for the ways that this is occurring, I am shown.

I guess that’s it in a nutshell…another short but sweet message from Spirit. No need to look back. The past is gone…only a thought at this point. Spend only enough time in the future to make plans without attachment. Be present in the moment. And give thanks for your life and everything in it. We are blessed now.

May we all be well…stay in touch…know our Unity…and thrive!

And may we know the Absolute Beauty and Wonder of this Grace-filled, once-in-a lifetime day…
