“Suppose I had wings like the dawning day and flew across the ocean. Even then your powerful arm would guide and protect me.” (Psalms 139: 9-10, Contemporary English Version)

God’s powerful arm is always beneath us and around us. No matter what condition we may seem to be in or even what frame of mind, God’s Love is right there, upholding us and keeping us safe from harm.

We can’t ever be separate from divine Life, Truth, and Love. God’s infinite and active presence is right where we are—where our lives and our hearts rest and where they journey toward. You DO have “wings like the dawning day” and the very reason you are able to fly beyond the limits of human doubts and material beliefs is because God’s limitless power and love are with you, underneath you and around you, making all things possible.

Don’t be afraid. You are not alone. Your companion, your home, your vessel to greatness, is God, the Almighty One Who loves you. Right where you are. Wherever that is. God is always there to lift you above fear and discouragement and show you that you are safe, dearly loved, and free to fully use those beautiful and capable wings He gave you to fly!

Daily Inspiration, August 20th

Posted on August 20, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“For the Lord shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.” (Isaiah 51: 3)

It may seem at times like we are out in the gloomy wilderness. We can’t see any beauty, any fruitful place, only waste and emptiness and the fear that this ugly place is our fate.

But God’s Love sees something else. God sees our worth, our potential for growth, fruitfulness, loveliness, and contentment. This loving power comes to us right where that barrenness might seem its worst, and brings the comfort of fresh soil, new seeds to bloom, and a renewed sense of Life at its very best.

Receive that comfort with thanksgiving, with gratitude. Be ready to see past the shadow to the sun that is right here, awakening you to reality, to the great garden that is within you.

You don’t need anyone to create a flowering place for you. You don’t need any particular change of location or circumstance in order to flourish. What is needed is to receive willingly and gratefully the message of that Comforter, calling you to recognize within yourself what God sees in you—a divine purpose, a childlike readiness, a brilliant ability to do good, to feel joy, to blossom, and to hear that true and glorious song of your harmonious, melodious life!

Daily Inspiration, August 18th

Posted on August 18, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“…please don’t, out of old habit, slip back into being or doing what everyone else tells you. Friends, stay where you were called to be. God is there. Hold the high ground with him at your side.” (I Corinthians 7: 23-24, Message Bible)

Stay loyal to goodness. Hold to your convictions. Continue to cherish that wonderful revealed Truth of Life that you are coming to know. This great law of Love that is the very heart of Life is your salvation and your most natural state of being.

We may feel the pressure of the world or the call of our old habitual ways of thinking and acting. It may seem alluring just to go with the flow and let others tell us what is best for us or what is easiest.

But Paul is pleading with the Corinthians for a reason here. He knew the better way and that they deserved to know it as well. Paul knew, as we do, that to take the high ground, to stand firm on our own individual inspiration, to remember and honor the touch of the Christ in our lives, is heaven. For being true to God, to that high standard of real freedom and goodness and love, is being true to ourselves.

And stepping out from the crowd to do what our higher sense would beckon us to do is not going it alone at all. God is there. The Almighty is by your side—as your guide, trustworthy companion, faithful defender, and the One Who knows and loves you best.

Daily Inspiration, August 13th

Posted on August 13, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” (II Corinthians 9: 7)

We all have a divine purpose. We have something significant to give in the greatness of our lives as well as in the day-to-day opportunities. As we recognize this intention, this right desire to share of our love, our goodness, our hope, our strength, we can trust it to lead us in a way that is fruitful.

But if giving seems like a burden or if we feel resentful or merely methodical in what we do, take a pause and reflect. Look again to what that purpose is, whether it is truly from God and therefore right for us. If our heart tells us this is God’s intent, then let that same heart feel the joy in that; let it gain power and energy and satisfaction from the fact of a holy intention, Love’s design to bless others and ourselves as well.

Joy is essential. Don’t let God’s work, your own daily business as you have been led to pursue it, become drudgery, too serious, or wearying. God’s loving purpose for you contains with it a natural enjoyment, uplift, and gratitude. Without recognizing and claiming this cheerful willingness, we lack in sincerity and our work will lack luster, power, and contentment.

Give freely of God’s rich intention. Share of His abundant goodness and rejoice that you are an essential expression of and recipient of God’s loving, purposeful Life.

Daily Inspiration, August 11th

Posted on August 11, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind. This is the first and most important commandment. The second most important commandment is like this one. And it is, ‘Love others as much as you love yourself.’  All the Law of Moses and the Books of the Prophets are based on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22: 37-40, Contemporary English Version)

Jesus understood the law. He knew that all the good behavior and obedience espoused by the inspired prophets who preceded him, were squarely based on these two important principles.

We must surely begin with honoring God. But this action goes beyond simply recognizing His power and worshiping Him. We must love God fully, thoroughly, sincerely, and consistently. This love is not something we can put on or simulate through forced actions. It is pure and genuine. This honest love brings us right in line with God’s true and enduring love for us.

This great love for God is not difficult when we realize it means we must be devoted, heart and soul, to love and goodness itself. Loving God means loving what is natural to us, most pleasing, and satisfying.

And when we recognize that God abundantly, unconditionally loves us, we can’t help but love others, too. For divine Love made every idea—conceived them as the very image and expression of His own Love. Each one is lovable and worthy of God’s love, so, therefore, certainly worthy of ours. We can follow these powerful commandments with natural ease and freedom because we were born to love and to be loved. It’s the law!

Daily Inspiration, August 6th

Posted on August 6, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“Jesus called the Twelve to him…He sent them off with these instructions: ‘Don’t think you need a lot of extra equipment for this. You are the equipment. No special appeals for funds. Keep it simple.’” (Mark 6: 7-9, Message Bible)

We are taking up where the twelve apostles left off. Jesus’s words apply completely to us as we go forth in our work, in our thoughts and actions. We have a purpose. We are called to carry out the holy intention of the healing Christ—to be the living proof of goodness and love—and we are fully equipped to do this.

For we are made of goodness and love. We have built-in resources—the reflected and powerful qualities of God that He gave us. Never belittle what you are and the infinite capacities of your life to achieve great things. Such a perspective belittles God. It is saying in effect that His creation is lacking, meager, weak, unprepared. In addition, it would suggest that God called us to do His holy work of love but didn’t love us enough to equip us sufficiently!

You are the equipment. You don’t need any tools outside of who you naturally are to do wonderful things and to please God in doing them. You don’t need extra money or time or human validation or great training and intellect. Keep it simple. Trust God and trust yourself, as His natural expression, to please Him, to truly succeed, to be all that you were so perfectly made to be!

Daily Inspiration, August 4th

Posted on August 4, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“…it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.” (Matthew 18: 14)

Your Father-Mother has no favorites. His Love is boundless and every idea that He conceived is one that He thoroughly and enduringly loves. Each one of us is safe in the certainty of God’s presence and His awareness of who we are, where we are, and why we are essential to His glorious expression.

God’s will is not destructive or neglectful. You can trust Him as a Shepherd that is able to care for you and for all the others as well. You can be so grateful that you are a sheep and that you needn’t worry your sweet little head over your own well-being or that of any of the other sheep in God’s infinite pasture. Your divine Shepherd knows His own and He loves them, keeps them, carries them, guides them, cleanses them, always brings them home.

Our Father’s heavenly consciousness, that presence that is peaceful reality, embraces each one of us and we each hear and naturally respond to His loving voice. He knows what every one of his little ones most need to find their way to safety and joy, and He can do this tending so much better, wiser, more effectively than we can.

No one is out of God’s care. Each is tenderly watched and expressively loved.

Daily Inspiration, July 30th

Posted on July 30, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“Man is not a pendulum, swinging between evil and good, joy and sorrow, sickness and health, life and death.” (Science and Health, page 246)

You are not a pendulum. You are not blown back and forth by the wind of mortal mind’s whims and its unkind, material theories about life. You are not a pendulum, drawn back into a human past to survey loss or pain, swinging with no grounding either backward or forward into some wall that ends it all. You are absolutely and always grounded in Truth, the unchanging Principle. That loving Truth has designed your Life to live naturally and confidently and gracefully forward, at the perfect pace, safely and yet with surprises to discover.

A pendulum is a piece in a clock. It is hanging in time’s clutches. You are not a pendulum. You are grounded in the eternal Now, standing certain in each well-conceived moment, new to its promise and moving forward gratefully and gracefully under the control of infinite wisdom.

You are not swinging perpetually up and down, backwards and forwards. There isn’t a necessary backwards to every forward. God is in control. His law is progress, and His method is Love. You are free of time’s hold and held safely in divine Life’s upward, onward flight. Let go of the pendulum. Don’t buy that belief, that superstition. You are free to be joyful, healthy, whole, all the time, right now.

Daily Inspiration, July 28th

Posted on July 28, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“My prayer for you is that you may have still more love—a love that is full of knowledge and wise insight. I want you to be able always to recognise the highest and the best, and to live sincere and blameless lives until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians 1: 9-10, JB Phillips New Testament)

Paul’s sweet prayer is one that we can receive today. Let’s accept this blessing that would expand our sense of love. The Christ-message that Paul preached brought out for all a greater understanding of the Love that is God. It was not only a human sense of goodness, but a greater perception of divine Love as the only Creator, the one Source, and the very Father and Mother of us all.

This prayer would not only have us practice loving-kindness, but really, thoroughly recognize God as Love. It would wish for us to know the Truth of our unbreakable relationship with divine Love as the very children and witnesses to this powerful, healing force. With this awareness, we go beyond faith to a true and confident understanding and appreciation for what is ours to live and to share.

And Paul knew as we do, that if we really perceive God as Love and ourselves as His children, we can’t fail to desire to live in accord with this heritage. This consciousness of who we are uplifts our motives, clarifies our perception of life, and empowers us not only to want the highest and best, but to refuse to be anything less.

“Sincere and blameless lives” are natural to divine Love’s reflection. This prayer is not one which would try to change us into better men; it is one which reveals that we already are innately good, wise, and loving because our perfect God made us to be!

Daily Inspiration, July 23rd

Posted on July 23, 2015 by LauraMoliter

“The purpose and motive to live aright can be gained now. This point won, you have started as you should…and nothing but wrong intention can hinder your advancement.” (Science and Health, page 326)

Seize the day! Today, this moment, is your opportunity to live life rightly, truly, honestly, happily. Yesterday is irrelevant in this choice and the sooner you realize this, the easier it will be to continue forward progressively, yet naturally. If we are looking over our shoulder, our movement is likely to be unsteady, faltering, and we may just bump into something.

We can discover that right purpose and motive and by doing so, be led out of limits and into a life that is more suitable and good and therefore also productive. When we keep our intentions pure and sincere, there is nothing that can stop our accomplishing fresh and wonderful things that regenerate rather than deplete us.

We can make this conscious and conscientious decision to agree to be the worthy and wonderful children of God that we indeed are. We can choose in this precious moment to disagree with what human opinions, material circumstances, or personality would try to say about our lives and our potential. We can decide right now to be better than mortal mind’s accusations about us, and to walk with our heads high and our hearts full of love.

Our good intention aligns us with God, omnipotence, and so we have this great power behind us to advance, to live in accord with goodness, and to naturally bring blessings to others as well as to ourselves.
