It is good sometimes to take pauses from the routine. To have visitors, to see new places. It is like a shot of adrenalin to the spirit. It opens our eyes to new realities and allows us to be in the moment absorbing the unfamiliar, creating memories to replay in quiet moments and releasing our day to day existence for a period of time.
It is as if we are temporarily reborn. This is how it is to turn our life over to God for He makes all things new and creates a greater consciousness so that each new day is a wonder and a revelation. When we ask for His guidance we are inviting Him to be with us each day in all things, in every thought and experience and to see all things wholly, in God's own truth, not int the illusions of our own fears.
Each day then becomes an enlightenment and a joy filled with wonderful surprises God sends. All things are constantly changing and we learn to welcome the change as we welcome the seasons God brings.
We see each day for the beauty it contains as we release any negativity that would spoil our vision into God's hands. We learn to change what we can, which is only ourselves. We have no control over others and we learn to accept that which we cannot change.
We learn to release the past for it is gone and cannot be altered. Today is the gift of the present we live fully, completely, and in gratitude and sharing. We know that God is always with us and we stop worrying, knowing He will guide us on the right path that will contribute to our continued spiritual growth.
Our days become ongoing quests of new attainment whether we are doing or just being. We create a sacred space we can turn to at any time and welcome the Holy Spirit into our life. There is no routine in God, everything is new.
Each day is a blessing in which we are continually surprised and filled with abundance. I am living a new reality God has given me. All I had to do was ask. God was waiting to show me a whole new way of living in Him.

Answers
God answers when we ask, not only for ourselves but for others as well. He does not intervene but God does intercede. God wants us to turn to Him. He waits patiently for our call and delights when we as Him into our life and include Him in all things. To know the difference all you need to do is ask.

Just invite God in
My life has changed so much for the better after I entrusted it to God. He is my guiding light, each moment of each day. The days are begun with Him and He shows me the way. When I pray He answers, not necessarily in the exact way I, in my limited capacity, would ask to be answered, but more abundantly.

Enjoy the gift of today
Today is a gift from God. It is filled with light and beauty and wonderful colors. Be aware of every movement of air, every nuance of light and shadow. See the variety of multiple colors and shades. Take time to pause and be aware of life and yourself.
Hear the airplane as it moves through the sky and the sound of unseen trucks and cars as they drive on the freeway out of sight. See the dashes of clouds in the sky as if written in a row, and the leaves as they fall to the ground.
Life itself is variety. No two people's lives are exactly alike, not even twins. Everyone has their own experiences, thoughts, emotions. Just as each leaf is unique, so are we, and God treasures us all. Thoughts come to us as well as ideas when we take time to listen, to be still.
While we are living our life, others are living theirs, perhaps hundreds of miles away, totally unconscious of each other. Yet God knows when each of us breathes, what we think, when we pray. He knows what worries us and what brings us joy.
He experiences our lives even as we do. God is part of each of us and we are connected through Him as part of a greater whole. Each of us makes a difference that we exist and the world would not be the same without us.
As it takes millions of drops of water to make an ocean so too it takes millions of us to create a universe, each doing their part. God brings new people into our lives all the time but on earth we will never encounter the whole. That can happen only in the beyond.
Sometimes we meet another and feel an instant closeness as if we have met before, and quite possibly we have, in another time and place. We are here to learn, to experience, and to grow but we are never alone.
We only need to look around to realize how vast all creation is and we are touching but a small part of it. Take time to notice all life from the smallest ant to the grandest tree, everything is God's creation.

God gives us joy
Worry solves nothing and serves no good purpose. Instead turn all things over to God. He will send the Holy Spirit and His angels to guide us. He will lighten our load. He will bring joy into our life. All we need to do is to be open to Him.
God loves all of us, totally, unconditionally, without limits. He asks us to love each other in return. The Holy Spirit brings miracles into our lives. He reacquaints us with those we have not seen in years.
He teaches us to share joyfully. To accept what we can change and to leave the rest in His hands. To have faith is to trust implicitly with no reservations, knowing God is in charge. He does not expect us to solve all things but to do the best we can in all aspects of our lives.
To follow the example set for us in His son Jesus. To be compassionate, loving, giving, caring to all those we encounter. We cannot change others, only ourselves. God does not expect us to. He only asks us to live our life as an example of His love.
Treasure His words and His teaching. Look for the joy in life instead of dwelling on the sorrow. Try to make a difference, in some small way. Know that God is all loving and all giving and has a great sense of humor as well.
Ask His assistance and He will be there. Seek and ye shall find. Include God in your every day. Make Him a part of all that you do. See others as He would see them. Be forgiving, not just in some things, but in all things.
Do not advertise every good deed you do, seeking recognition. God already knows, and that is enough! Treat everyone as you would wish to be treated. Make each day memorable in some small way.
Call friends and family often. Don't wait to tell others you care, it might be too late if you do. Never withhold a compliment and never be quick to offer a discouraging word. If you have nothing else to give, remember a smile will do, and count your blessings.

It is our choice
God gave us all free will, so if others do not choose to love, to share, to be part of things, they are making this choice of their own free will. God has given us the power to choose what we will experience, it is not inflicted on us.
We can choose to love and be loving. We can choose to be in fear and to feel victimized. We can choose light and laughter or to be in the darkness and to exclude others from our lives. It is all a matter of choice and free will, nothing more.
Through our choices come our experiences which influence our view on life. Some say life is joyless because they have refused to experience the opportunities of joy. Our lives may become limited by our own choices or full of possibilities.
One person feels they can't do a thing that another person feels they can. It is all in our own perspective. It is, as they say, seeing the cup half full or half empty. If we choose to change our perspective we can change our life.
God, in His pure love allows us to create the lives and our experiences according to the choices we make and the belief of our own egos. We can invite Him into our lives, or not. We can release and forgive or harbor resentments and suffer the consequences. It is up to us.
We can ask God to walk each step of the way with us, or not. We can see life as a sacrifice or a blessing. God waits on our decisions and abides by them. Providing us opportunities but allowing us to choose whether to participate or withdraw.
When we turn to Him in joy, include Him is all things, embrace new experiences and see His hand working in our life, He fills it abundantly. We only need to as to receive. When we have decisions to make we can ask for His guidance and He will lead the way.
Life in God is filled with miracles and wonders, blessings and joy, peace and abundance. Our happiness is also the Father's and He would share it all with us as we are willing to share it with others.

Lift me up
Lift me up Oh Lord that I may cherish the day before me and realize the joy it holds. My heart is open to your love and all the beauty around me. I play music that tells of the beauty of the morning and of the day and I feel gratitude for the gift of this day.
Not all days will we fill clear headed or at our peak but still we can make the best of the day we have been given. To set our mind and our heart to make the most of what we have. There is beauty when we look for it even on the stormiest of days.
Music uplifts our spirit. Love reaches out to us across the miles and life is good indeed. I am grateful to see clearly through the denseness of the times and ask you to send the light shining through to feel your warmth surrounding me and to lift up my spirit.
I feel a hunger for sustenance and a peace of spirit. I know you are with me in the clear and the cloudy days to enlighten and guide me. Yes it is truly beautiful to be alive, to be in appreciation to the best of our ability.
To not waste one day but to realize the gift it is. To savor it, use it well, to put a purpose in all that we do. You feed the hunger of my spirit, Dear Lore, you comfort me in all my days. You let the sun shine around me and the wind to blow away our fears and the clouds just as you cleanse our minds of the mustiness clogging it.
You open us to new experiences to focus on all that is good in our lives and forget the little inconveniences. To put life into perspective. To sometimes slow us down so that we may take time to notice all the small things we would otherwise overlook.
Thank you for the many angels in my life both the earth bound and the ones of light. I am blessed with the solitude of the day and with the words you send to warm my heart that always lift me up.
