On By thinkcarebelieveIn PrayersLeave a comment

Father,

Thank you for this opportunity today to learn more about ourselves and the world. Thank you for all the moments that show us how we are unique, and that our gifts and talents are part of what makes us special in your eyes. May we always be humble, as was your son, Jesus. May our abilities be put to use in ways that produce ripples of light in our world that extend outward and grow exponentially.

We know, Father, that many are suffering and we ask that you come into each of our lives and touch us to lift and sustain, so that we may be the source of compassionate action for others around us. Ignite our hearts, Father so that our passion flows through us like lava, surging through our hands to produce works of divine impact. Help us to trust the the guiding Light inside of us that is you. “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

Come into our hearts, come into our lives today, Father, help us make the most of our skills so that they expand our influence for the better in this changing world. Help us mold and carve to give it a new soul and rhythm that enhances all life. Help us dwell in the beauty that touches the soul and inspires us to tackle any challenge, writing new stories of success.

Bless our teams, help us to be a powerful cohesive force in our world that changes all darkness into light, because we know that when we turn our light on, darkness scatters. May we rise to new levels that surpass all expectations.

Let it be so,

Amen

Prayer of Peace and Wonderment

On By thinkcarebelieveIn Wise Words1 Comment

Father,

In gratitude for the gift of this day, we know that in this challenging time, we can always unplug and connect to the peace within ourselves that is you living in our hearts. We can be stronger in knowing that no matter what happens today, we can choose to be at peace, grounded in your love. By staying grounded in the ever-knowing that we are loved by you, no matter what we are faced with, we will not fall into despair. As in Psalm 27, “I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living.”

Help us remember, Father, that a beautiful miracle is happening in our world, and we are witnessing the demolition of the old before the rebuilding of the new. We know it may look and feel strange, because “The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.” (2Corinthians) No matter what, we will stay grounded in the knowing that change is occurring because of your divine decree.

We promise to be steadfast and resilient, Father. As we witness these changes, we will resist fear and reach into the innocence within and remember what it was to play with newness and change with a sense of wonder and curiosity. Instead of panic, we will marvel at your work. This will fuel our fight for freedom, using the tools you gave us, our focus, our awareness and our voice. Fill our hearts with light, Father so that we may never be separated from your love.

May we all be blessed with wonderment at the miracles that are happening in front of our eyes.

In peace and loving service,

Amen.

Prayer of Divine Service

As we open our eyes to this day, we search for the inner spark that is you, Father in order to connect with you, our home. That lifeline to your majesty begins our day in perfect and powerful ways. Open our hearts to the vitality that spurs us onward today, Father, so that we may drink-in the elixir of life that rejuvenates and inspires. Let this be a day of divine sanctification that cleanses and purifies our distress, because we know that we have cultivated a ceaseless faith born of suffering that scuttles despair.

Allow us to walk our path today in peace and joy that allows us to deal with anything and everything we come upon, with lightness and speed. Although we may remain duty bound, allow us to feel a freedom in our Soul that enables us to outplay all expectation and defy all limits. May we learn to stay humble while doing so Father, and always remember that we do what we do, in service to you and to our fellow travelers, our family of Souls. As in the reminder, “Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord.” (Romans)

Thank you for our gifts, Father. The skills and abilities we use to do our honest work. To strive to make our mark on this ever-changing world. May we always feel your light on our face so we may let your love flow through our hands. Set our task using the compass of Your Will. Because we know from 1Peter, “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace:”

Special blessings for all the team, Father, and our loved ones.

In loving service,

Amen.

So be it.

Prayer of Cleansing

On By thinkcarebelieveIn PrayersLeave a comment

The people who walk in darkness

Will see a great light;

Those who live in a dark land,

The light will shine on them.

-Isaiah 9:2

Father,

We greet today with a reminder to stay connected to the still, small voice in our hearts. To rise above all chaos and walk with a certain confidence that all will be according to Your Will. May we remember to stay grounded to the Earth all day while walking in your light. When we are in times of upheaval and change such as this, there is so much emotion mixing in the air. Father keep us above the fray, allow the mixing of light and dark to settle, because we know that when the light switches on, all dark disappears. As more and more of us shine outward, it will take dominance, because it already has.

Thank you for blessing us this day, for blessing us in this glorious transformation. As we return to the wisdom of the ages, to live in balance with Mother Earth and take our place as stewards of her life-giving beauty and abundance, we know you will guide our feet to a place of peace. Right now, we ask for your healing flame to cleanse and clear us of any darkness or emotion that does not belong, and we ask that you cleanse our loved ones and neighbors as well, so that we may all experience that deep, inner peace. May we all be cleansed and cleared, so that lasting peace, has a chance.

Show us the way, Father, so that we may see the way out of the polaric power struggles in order to stand freely. Ecclesiastes enlightens us with “And I saw that wisdom excels folly as light excels darkness” and we know it to be so. To live life with certain grace and to walk the Earth differently than yesterday. Illuminate the way forward, and we will strive to be better, stronger and brighter together.

Bless our team, bless all our teams today and every day Father, because we fight for you and for our future.

Amen.

Let it be so.

God is Victory.

Prayer of Enduring Love

On By thinkcarebelieveIn PrayersLeave a comment

Father,

We know you have utter faith in us to call us into service during this time just for the fact that we’re even here experiencing it right now. Some of us may be feeling apprehensive about what the future my bring. Father although there may be challenges ahead, we know you would not give us more than we can handle. We know that you would not seek to destroy us, only to strengthen us as your light clears the darkness. 1John clearly states that “God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.”

Stepping forward, we know that love begets love. That when we are in love, there is no fear. Therefore as we take these first steps into a better future, we will use your love as the map, with your light guiding the way. This all makes the second step easier, because if we can look at what is happening now with the innocence of a child, in childish wonderment, we may be able to see how you are creating actual miracles around us. We can love and accept who we are right now, and realize that you love us just as we are, and we can step through this doorway into a place of being that love because “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.” (1John)

We ask for the blessings of this day, Father, for our teammates and all loved ones. We ask that you lift us all up and hold us safe in your arms knowing how loved we are. Our world is changing, and being crafted according to your plan, by your map Father, and we know you have only the best intentions for us to be challenged in new ways that bring us joy, so that we can be as creative as our imaginations can dream. We know this, Father, because “His love endures forever.” (Psalm 136)

We know we can put any fear of the unknown into your hands, Father, because we are sure of your enduring love for us, as your children,

So be it,

Amen

Prayer of Inner Strength

On By thinkcarebelieveIn PrayersLeave a comment

Father,

We sometimes feel that we are not making any progress, that we work and never see results. We come to you Father, this day asking for your hand to light the path ahead and clear all blockages. Because “He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man.” (Colossians) We take in that strength from you and we let it fill us up completely. We know Father, that whenever we need this, we can come to you to refill and renew our inner strength from your unlimited wellspring.

Please bless us and our loved ones. May our hearts be filled with peace and a sense of purpose. Father we ask that you bathe the Earth in your love so that there will be a special light of clarity during this challenging time.

May we always walk in faith as your son taught us, “so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love.” (Ephesians) May we keep that lesson foremost in our hearts and minds and remember that above all else, we are grounded in love, and that all of our work stems from that love. May it grow to a great strength and branch outward into the world as the world feels the touch of your hand, bringing it back to peace. We know that change begins with us, Father, may we rise to the challenge and carry it through, in service to you.

So be it.

Amen

Hope and Strength Prayer

Hope and Strength Prayer

Father,

We know that sometimes it gets hard, that sometimes the rug is pulled out and we feel confused, perhaps even lost.

Isaiah tells us “But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” So,we endeavor to summon our courage, our hope and our strength, and keep on moving forward, shoulder to shoulder, because we are certain we will make it through.

Jeremiah gives us, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” So we will press onward, individually as well as together, as the sun rises and a new day dawns, we know The Light has come to brighten our world.

Let it be so.
So it is.
God is Victory
Amen

When the rug has been pulled out from under us, how do we find the strength to carry on? We turn inward and pull from deep down inside. When we are willing to do that assessment, and look deep within ourselves, what we find there is our true essence. It is the us that knows what we are passionate about doing that which gives us a sense of purpose in our life. The place inside where we know we are worthy of living from that inspiration in our work, and our play. What we find inside ourselves, in our innermost being, is worthy of our whole love.

Found

a poem by thinkcarebelieve

~

Searching for all our lost pieces,

Probing all the folds and creases.

Deep inside we venture forth,

To keep our compass pointing north.

What we find is beyond sheer joy,

Our life’s purpose shall employ.

A world born of inspiration,

Of work and play in great elation.

We are worthy is what we found,

Inside us deep love abounds.

We have no choice but accept this gift,

The love we are that gives us lift.

Courage

On By thinkcarebelieveIn Healing & Empowerment, The Shift, ToolsLeave a comment

“Courage is not simply one of the virtues but the form of every virtue at the testing point, which means at the point of highest reality. ”

― CS Lewis

Courage resides in each of us. There comes a time in eveyone’s life when we reach our testing point. Doing good in the world is something we earnestly try to achieve. In times of pressure, we are tested. If we can continue to be merciful and kind when it is hardest, that is when our courage is visible. By standing for what we truly believe, we pull out everything we have and knowing that our strength will carry us through, we will achieve greatness together.

I know it seems we will never make progress, and life just seems to keep smacking us around. I promise you that you can do this, that you were born to be here now and that you have it within you to rise to whatever challenge is set before you and shine brightly. What does it mean to shine brightly?

~Don’t take the bait. Resist the thing.

~Stand in your strength; stand up for truth.

~Choosing to align with Love (See Affirmation)

~Letting that which no longer serves us to drop away.

~Unconditional Love transcends all

~Kindness and compassion

~Mindful awareness, patience, faith and hope

Affirmation

I align with love.

I align my path with my highest destiny.

I align with the North Star.

“Courage is not the absence of fear. Only fools have no fear. Rather, courage is the intellectual mastery of fear by understanding the true risks and opportunities of the situation and keeping those things in balance”

― Julian Assange

Shifting Insecurities

On By thinkcarebelieveIn Healing & Empowerment, The Shift, ToolsLeave a comment

The last full moon of 2022 was this morning. Kinda makes one feel a little nostalgic. This has been an incredible year of leaps and bounds forward and upward.

Sitting in the glow of the Cold Moon this morning, my ponderings took on a view of different situations from multiple angles. Literally. I was reminded how we can go from just looking at a situation to influencing a situation.

The old dualistic system in which we grew up, played the game like this… two or more people looking at a situation, they become polarized into opposites through traps and triggers, and then they ultimately battle it out in a hot debate to see who would emerge victorious, the winning view thus crowned the dominant “accepted” narrative.

The new 5D way is a bit complex, but surprisingly organic and sensible. By allowing honest opinions to stand, as if they were camera lenses, we get a more complete picture of a situation. In the old system we would have to wait 50 years for all the secrets to come out, and then determine the truth through 20/20 hindsight. What is happening now is that we’ve become sophisticated in our discernment and maturity to wield our Light responsibly. We now grab hold and lift up a situation, directing our focus into it while shining our light brightly on all aspects of it… in real time. We are the camera and the camera is able to fly around to see a situation from all perspectives at once. In this manner, we can see through illusion and misdirection, and grasp the truth as if we were plucking the fruit from the branches of a tree.

I was nudged to connect with my inner light as we’ve been doing lately in the exercises I’ve been posting. This time I was guided to change my perspective and move my conscious awareness to a neighbor’s house. I was guided to put a prayer of well-being on my neighbor’s house for their highest good. To use the symbol of the Flower of Life on their house to bless them. That felt nice. Then I thought, why not do that for everyone in need, and so, I envisioned a list made up in the quantum, of everyone in my community needing healing and upliftment, especially in the times of these holidays. I set my intention that all names and all needs be complete with no detail left out. I felt into that list with my tenderest, most sincere unconditional love. I asked for holiday magic for each of them. I was connected fully in my heartspace. Then I sent it out to the whole list, quantumly. Everyone in need. It felt amazing and powerful and wonderful. I felt things shifting, and then I let it go to do it’s thing and pictured everyone happy and healthy and giving thanks. I then had tears of gratitude.

This is the kind of work we can do to plant seeds that influence situations for the better. If we stay in our light and try not to get thrown off balance, we gain. All the bait being cast out there is to entice us to go off track from shining our light into situations as we just did in the paragraph previous. Traps and temptations that would normally throw us into fear and worry, will not work anymore because we will not allow it, will we? We are putting ourselves on a diet that starves out our insecurities and turns them into muscles that will go to work on the things that matter most and make a difference.

When we connect inward to the divine light inside of us, our eternal selves, we go into a heart coherence that puts us in balance with all that is. We have access to knowledge and wisdom and can see things from many angles at once. Any time we get scared and concerned, we leave the flow of coherence and start looking for what is wrong, thinking of the worst that could happen, as we were trained to do in the old world. I know it’s hard, particularly when one has experienced trauma, but we must starve out our insecurities and be the divine unconditional love that is the true basis of everything.

With the intensity of this full moon today, our homework is to keep our light bright. Whatever side of the aisle we are on, the fight in the real time now is to not give up an inch of our Light. To not give anyone an ounce of our fear and doubt. We are not going to create doom and gloom for anyone any longer, but instead choose to consciously participate in a victory of Love for all of us. Eyes open and staying in the now, living from our hearts.

Affirmation

I am not going to create from my insecurities anymore. From now on, I am going to create from my strength, my Love and my compassion. I AM empowered.
