 To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet. To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds. To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you. <div class="zemanta-related" style="clear: both; margin-top: 20px; overflow: hidden;">

Your mind spinning out of control building things up to an exaggerated state. You imagine all kinds of terrible outcomes.More often than not, we find the worst case scenario that we think about for so long don’t actually turn out as bad as we have been imagining. Most of the terrible outcomes you think about don’t come to fruition. In reality, the worst that happens is usually not that hard to handle. In fact the worst part of it is the time you have wasted fretting, troubling yourself with the fears of what may come to pass.It is a fact that our ability to handle pressure is determined by our attitude toward it. Getting our thinking right will help us to deal far better with things at difficult times. Find yourself an inspirational quote which you can use to get your thinking into perspective, that will also bring you inner calm. A great quote can instantly transform your thoughts, putting you into a better frame of mind. Use quotes as the off switch to your inner chatter. Turn off your fears and stress, and focus on the words and their meaning instead. Let them inspire you. Let them bring your mind to a peak state, full of positivity, and excitement about what you can to, be or have.<div class="zemanta-related" style="clear: both; margin-top: 20px; overflow: hidden;">

 Of course just reading a quote won’t make stressful situations just disappear, but by letting their insight absorb your mind, you will feel more relaxed, more positive, and you will find your ability to handle pressure vastly improved. When you are down in the dumps, struggling with situations in your life, what do you do to lift your emotional state? At these times, what is it that you use to bring you inspiration, understanding, or solutions? By just reading an inspirational quote and then pondering it, you will create positive thoughts, encouraging you to find solutions. Inspirational quotes have massive power through their capacity to inspire and motivate you to take action.

In its first centuries, half the churches were founded by women. Frescoes in the Roman catacombs depict images of women in priestly garb offering the Eucharist. Much of this changed when Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire in 381 and adapted itself to Roman hierarchy and power structures. But researchers like Ute Eisen and Dorothy Irvin have uncovered widespread evidence of women priests in both Eastern and Western Churches from the third to the ninth century, suggesting that women held on to their power for centuries after this shift.<div class="zemanta-related" style="clear: both; margin-top: 20px; overflow: hidden;">

Early Christianity was a religion of the underdog, beloved by women, slaves, and the dispossessed.

In its first centuries, half the churches were founded by women. Frescoes in the Roman catacombs depict images of women in priestly garb o...

O God, early in the morning I cry to you. 
Help me to pray 
And to concentrate my thoughts on you: 
I cannot do this alone. 
In me there is darkness, 
But with you there is light; 
I am lonely, but you do not leave me; 
I am feeble in heart, but with you there is help; 
I am restless, but with you there is peace. 
In me there is bitterness, but with you there is patience; 
I do not understand your ways, 
But you know the way for me… 
Restore me to liberty, 
And enable me to live now 
That I may answer before you and before me. 
Lord, whatever this day may bring, 
Your name be praised.</div>

1. 
Men go to God when they are sore bestead, 
Pray to him for succour, for his peace, for bread, 
For mercy for them sick, sinning, or dead; 
All men do so, Christian and unbelieving. 
 
2. 
Men go to God when he is sore bestead, 
Find him poor and scorned, without shelter or bread, 
Whelmed under weight of the wicked, the weak, the dead; 
Christians stand by God in his hour of grieving. 
 
3. 
God goes to every man when sore bestead, 
Feeds body and spirit with his bread; 
For Christians, pagan alike he hangs dead, 
And both alike forgiving.</div>

 Just for today, I will respect my own and others boundaries. Just for today, I will be vulnerable with someone I trust. Just for today, I will take one compliment and hold it in my heart for more than just a fleeting moment. I will let it nurture me. Just for today, I will act in a way that I would admire in someone else. I Am a child of God. I Am a precious person. I Am a worthwhile person. I Am beautiful inside and outside. I Love Myself unconditionally. I can allow myself ample leisure time without feeling guilty. I deserve to be loved by myself and others. I Am Loved because I deserve Love. I Am a child of God and I deserve Love, Peace, Prosperity and Serenity. I forgive Myself for hurting Myself and others. I forgive Myself for letting others hurt me. I forgive Myself for accepting sex when I wanted Love. I Am willing to accept Love. I Am not alone.I Am one with God and the Universe. I Am whole and good. I Am capable of changing. The pain that I might feel by remembering can't be any worse than the pain i feel by knowing and not remembering. I Am enough. I Am Love.</blockquote>

I Am a Divine and Beautiful Being I choose to live each moment with appreciation and complete acceptance of my own Divinity and beauty. I choose to appreciate and accept the beauty in all beings and the perfect divinity in each moment. I open my heart to the possibility of Love and benefit from every being and each moment. I purge myself of all doubt, negativity, judgmental tendencies, guilt, panic, and fearful thinking. I always seek that which I need to grow, to bud, to bloom, to blossom, to fruit, to bear seed. I dare to draw into myself the positive manifestation of each trial and difficulty; the rightness of every lesson. I breathe deeply and savor the love and benefit that surrounds and embraces my life as I live it each moment. I forgive myself with every breath I take and renew my transformative intentions with every beat of my heart. I glory in the goodness and rightness of all that I encounter and all that I Am. I Am a Divine and Beautiful Being. -Donna Henes

Stagers Mind of Calm

Promise Yourself

When we are troubled, facing difficult circumstances, instead of focusing on solutions, we let our mind wander through the debris of life, seeing the worst case scenarios, expecting doom and gloom.

One of my personal methods of coping with daily stress is reading and then thinking about an inspirational quote.

Early Christianity was a religion of the underdog, beloved by women, slaves, and the dispossessed.

MORNING PRAYER

Christians and Pagans

Be human in this most inhuman of ages

I am going with the flow of the Universe

I Am Love.

I Am a Divine and Beautiful Being.

Freedom only exists when Love is present.

I give myself TOTAL PERMISSION TO FOLLOW MY HEART
