 WOULD YOU CHANGE?

“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the
stars, which You have set in place, what is a human that You are mindful
of us, the child of man and woman that You care for each one of us? “You 
made us ruler over the works of your hands; You put everything under
our feet . . . . O Lord, our Lord how majestic is Your name in all the
earth.” Psalm 8:3-5, 9 (modern translation)
 
In the Bible, David writes Psalm 8 praising God for all creation, and the
fact that God cares for us, gloriously.
 
When we step back and look at our lives, what do we see? If God were a
man or woman, standing beside us, walking with us, how would we live? 
Would we kill? Would we maim? Would we harm any person, any animal,
anything?
 
God’s chosen way to operate in our world is through us. We are God’s
hands. Through our hands, we show service and love. Are our hands
gentle? Are our hands loving?
 
We are God’s feet. Do we tread with great awareness? Do we walk through
each day, noticing where we go? Do we listen to God's presence when we
need to make a choice in which way to turn?
 
We are God’s eyes. What shines from your eyes? Joy? Love? 
Understanding? Compassion? Laughter?
 
We are God’s voice. Is there kindness in our voice when we need to
confront an issue with another person? Is there love and understanding in
our voice when we say “no?” Do we say “yes,” gladly, when we feel God's
presence with us to accept a task or a chore that we normally would not
want to do?
 
God expresses through us. How does God appear through you? Would you
change what you say or how you say it? Would you change how you touch
someone? Would you change the path on which your feet walk? Would you
see the child of God within someone else, especially those you may have
difficulty with?
 
Imagine that God is beside you, in human form, in spirit form – whatever
form that has impact upon your life. God walks beside you, expressing
through you, each moment of every day. How do you express God?
 
POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:
 
Dear God, 
 
As I begin my day, help me to be aware, moment by moment, that I express
You in everything I do. I find Your peace within, guiding me towards all
decisions, all words that need to be said, all actions that need to be
taken on this day.
 
I remember, each moment, that You fill me with unconditional love and
compassion and understanding. In remembering this, I touch with loving
and gentle hands. I walk with awareness and with a sense of care for all
that is around me. I speak with kind and gentle words. With Your help
and guidance, I share laughter, I share joy, I share understanding.
 
At the end of this day, before I sleep, I will be able to look back on my
words and actions and thoughts, and know that I expressed You in the best
ways I knew how. I will sleep, restfully, knowing that tomorrow will be
another day to express you in even better ways, as You lead me.
 
Thank you, God, for Your gentleness, Your joy, and Your patience with me.
 
In Jesus Christ’s name….Amen.
 
POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: God has given me enough. God has given me an illumined, victorious spirit. I am established in freedom, self-mastery, and soul satisfaction.
 
POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: 
Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won't anymore...
And who always will.
So, don't worry about people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.
