Your work is to create the new heaven and the new earth. Therefore do not dwell on the troubles and tribulations, on the disease and suffering, on the wars and strife in the world. Do not allow yourself to become involved in it, for if you do, you will become part of the disease not the cure. As you raise your consciousness, you become immunized against the trouble in the world, and you can live and work with it all about you and yet it will not be able to affect or touch you in any way.
A doctor or nurse has to be immunized to be able to work freely with highly infectious diseases, and there must be no fear in them.
Let there be no fear in you as you watch the situation in the world become worse. Never despair.
Simply hold on in faith, let your mind be stayed on Me, and know that all is very, very well."

"The abundance flows in many more avenues than dollars. And so, if you could focus upon the gifts that the Universe gives you: When you say "abundance", think about it in the abundance of health, the abundance of vitality, the abundance of clarity, the abundance of enthusiasm, the abundance of delicious people in your life, the abundance of loving letters in your life. The abundance of free-flowing traffic in your life. The abundance of wonderful experiences in your life...As you start thinking in terms of this abundance that doesn′t have anything to do with dollars -- the abundance relative to the dollars starts flowing too." - Abraham-Hicks

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." Mahatma Gandhi
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. ′We ask ourselves, ′Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?′ Actually, who are you not to be?... Your playing small doesn′t serve the world. There′s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won′t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do... It′s not just in some of us; it′s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we subconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we′re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." Marianne Williamson, author, from A Return To Love, 1992. Ack C Wilson and J Cooke
"Take one thing with another, and the world is a pretty good sort of a world, and it is our duty to make the best of it, and be thankful. — Benjamin Franklin" |
