Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

peace is yours.

Storms may be raging around you, but you can still find peace in your own heart because the God of Peace reigns within you.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

there is a meaning to all this.

No one can see beyond the horizon of their own lives. We are threads in the great tapestry of time. Have faith. Every stitch has a reason.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

it is more than okay to live your joy.

Whatever makes your heart sing is what God wants for you! Of course it's okay to be happy! Of course it's okay to fulfill your heart's deepest desires! What your soul most dearly and deeply desires is the very thing God wants for you.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

it is very difficult to take care of others unless you have first taken care of yourself.

What do you need to do for yourself so that you can be available for others? What needs are going unmet? How can you be kind to yourself?

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

your remedy for anxiety is the question: 'Will this matter in a year from now?'

All too often you get so involved in things that you look at life through a microscope. Amplifying manifold, an invisible speck becomes an insurmountable mountain. Put down the microscope and imagine yourself a year from now looking back at today: 'Does this really matter?'

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

you've been missing out on delight that God has sent your way.

Think back over the last day, - what could you have taken with delight that you just skipped over?

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

love has already found you.

So much time has been spent trying to make yourself lovable. Trying to make yourself more attractive, more interesting. But love has already found you, perfect and pure love. Rest assured that God loves you just the way you are.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

you can make a difference today.

Even a simple gesture, - a smile, a touch, a kind word, can brighten someone’s day. Let your love flow freely today.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

you have immeasurable potential.

Just as a tiny seed can become a giant redwood tree, you have only scratched the surface of your potential. You have the creator of the universe on your team and you've been given the ball, so run with it. Run knowing that you have immeasurable potential.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

there are no small miracles.

A miracle is a miracle. Don't forget to notice them! As you begin to notice miracles, you will find that they are all around. Love and blessings abound!

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

it is okay to ask for help.

You were not meant to go through this journey alone. Ask for help. There is strength in togetherness.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

there will be times when you feel tossed around by the tempests of your emotions.

When this happens, look for that still sacred space within you. Take some time to rest in that space. After a time, when you are ready, come out to face the world again.

 

Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...

when the world seems crazy, chaotic, destructive, you can choose to create your own world of peace and love.

You do not have to immerse yourself in the illusion of craziness. You can create your own heaven on earth by being kind, surrounding yourself with good people, and nurturing the earth.

 

Happy Journaling…
