Daily Inspiration, September 18th

Posted on September 18, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“…I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.” (Isaiah 6: 8)

God is calling your name. Each day divine Love, infinite goodness, is beckoning you into your true purpose. God has made you to represent Him, to bring good and light and healing and love to the world. Should we be reluctant to be and to do what He has so brilliantly caused us to naturally accomplish?

We should be eager each morning to serve God. We can’t pretend we didn’t hear the call. The world is shouting out for healing, for clarity, for peace all the time. Who should God send? One who is ready, prepared by his own love for God and for that Christ-Truth, the only truth that can bring lasting and genuine harmony, heaven, to earth.

I am resolving each day not to be so quick to ask what God can do for me (which is so very much!), but instead to answer His call and to say, what can I do? Send me. I am here and I am ready. I know that I can glorify your nature, radiate your Love, because you have told me that I can and because you are always with me.

Will you join me in this daily response to God? Will you agree to say “yes” to representing God’s Truth here and now by being just who He made you to be, the very expression of His intention, His power, His Life, and His enduring and healing Love?

Daily Inspiration, September 16th

Posted on September 16, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“Don’t let the world around you squeeze you into its own mould, but let God re-mould your minds from within, so that you may prove in practice that the plan of God for you is good, meets all his demands and moves towards the goal of true maturity.” (Romans 12: 2, JB Phillips New Testament)

Your potential for life and for joy goes way beyond what the world around you would suggest. You don’t have to squeeze yourself into a mold of human expectations and opinions about life and individual expression. This approach to living would always have us feel either stifled or inadequate. It is a box which would essentially impede our progress, our growth in understanding, in demonstration, and in peace.

Instead of agreeing to the world’s patterns and trying to emulate them, be free! Give yourself permission to give up and now the uncomfortable agreement to live out life in a way that either feels confining or impossible. Let God redesign your thinking, open your mind and your very life to the great possibilities available to you—possibilities that will not only cause you to flourish, but will bring you contentment as well. These out-of-the-box divine opportunities must necessarily bring a true satisfaction that provides the strength and peace to give, to share, to bring more glory to God and more healing to our often deluded, confused world.

As we give up judgment on our lives—our own analysis or the judgment of others—we are able to let God’s natural movement happen. We are able to release ourselves to the Life that God has already planned for us, that expression of Him that feels most genuine, real, right, expansive, and healing.

Daily Inspiration, September 11th

Posted on September 11, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“Simply asking that we may love God will never make us love Him; but the longing to be better and holier, expressed in daily watchfulness and in striving to assimilate more of the divine character, will mould and fashion us anew, until we awake in His likeness.” (Science and Health, page 4)

Your humble and loving heart will reveal your heaven to you. Your sincere desire to be better, to understand more, and to love more truly and fully, is a guarantee of blessings. We can assert that we love God, good, or plead with Him. But without an open heart for instruction in righteousness, without an earnest, honest desire to listen and follow, we are missing something vital to our progress.

If we are to see ourselves truly, as God’s own image and likeness, we must begin with humility, a willingness to lose a prideful sense of self, or alternately a self-pitied one. If we are genuinely longing to listen and follow, to let go of ego and release ourselves to God’s Life, we shall discover the richness of that wonderful Life more and more each day.

It takes discipline, but not mere human willfulness. We should not berate ourselves for mistakes, giving them an enduring life, nor should we push ahead with a human time frame for our spiritual growth when we do not truly understand or feel the Truth of it. If we are recognizing the “divine character” and daily watching our thought for what is out of accord with that, then we shall advance. We shall begin to see more clearly that what we strive to be, is what we already are: the perfect idea that God saw fit to make and continues to thoroughly, attentively love.

Daily Inspiration, September 9th

Posted on September 9, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“…[Divine] Mind measures time according to the good that is unfolded. This unfolding is God’s day, and ‘there shall be no night there.’” (Science and Health, page 584)

Our days are bigger and better and fuller than hours crammed into daylight. Our divine Mind’s measurement of time is according to the amount of good that is unfolding. And this revelation of goodness is God’s doing. He is the substance of our every moment and He is in control of its perfect expression.

Let go of the mortal mind’s need to count the hours and the days, to be constantly aware of the passage of time or, contrariwise, by its seeming delay and our impatience with it. A material sense of time is a mortal measure and so it is necessarily limiting. God’s time is a space for goodness to be revealed—in an instant or sustained in many moments, days, years. God Himself is in charge of this lovely activity, and it is always going on. Infinite good is already right here, right now, and God is revealing more of that reality each day.

So we can treasure this true sense of our day—look forward to each with expectancy, and linger in each as we are in it with gratitude. There is no night in God’s day; there is no stopping point for light and good, no shut down of His presence and power, no absence of His active Love. God’s day is His own expressive presence and there is no evil, no impatience, no disappointment, no loss, and no fear in a day that is full of Life, Truth, and Love!

Daily Inspiration, September 4th

Posted on September 4, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.” (Luke 6: 21)

Be ready for your blessings. Don’t for a moment think that despair, disappointment, need, or grief is your cross to bear. We are given a promise. You shall be blessed and, in fact, already are.

Your Father-Mother loves you perfectly and completely—always has and always will. Even in your doubt and in your sadness, divine Love is actively with you. And God’s tenderness goes beyond simply meeting the need, as Jesus’s words here remind us. We receive even more than we might now expect.

The hungering thought not only gets fed, it gets filled. That dear one who seems in need of spiritual sustenance and necessary substance in life, will receive enough to feel full and satisfied, enough, perhaps, even to give to others. Likewise, the one who weeps, who mourns a loss literally or grieves over human experiences and self-doubt, will do more than simply smile again or have a moderate peace. That very one will laugh!

The belief overcome through God’s love gives us a truly rich reward. Know this and allow that blessing to come in—to spread out Soul’s full feast before you and to cause you to naturally and freely and fully and gratefully and heartily rejoice!

Daily Inspiration, September 2nd

Posted on September 2, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me. They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.” (Psalms 18: 16-18)

We can’t do it alone. The opposition often seems much bigger than we are, its daunting presentations and predictions mesmerizing and overwhelming. The enemy to our good lives can appear strong and vicious, and we ourselves feel weak and victimized.

But, there is always God with us. He is ready to bring us His angel inspirations from on high and His perfect and strong and changeless Principle as our stay, our sure and steady foundation. Our God is Love, and Love saves from hate, from the darkness that would bury us and the accusations that would cage us in fear and doubt. God is not weak or worried. He is established Omnipotence, believing no lies about His idea, and ready to raise us up to see what He sees.

You are never in a pitiable state. You are always in a perfect place for a rescue, for a divine conquering of evil, and a victorious overcoming not only of the trouble that would tempt you to believe, but also of the fear that would keep you from seeing your freedom at hand. You are not weak, but you are humble and ready for God. You are poised for Love’s Christ to come to you, and to show you tenderly but with firm confidence, that you are never overpowered because God will always keep you with Him—safe, sound, and at peace.

Daily Inspiration, August 28th

Posted on August 28, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.” (Isaiah 54: 4)

Those bad memories, the regrets and grief, the losses of opportunity and of dignity, are not yours to carry for eternity. They are not worthy of daily rumination nor are they obstacles to your peace. God promises a brand new day.

Don’t be afraid. You are not stuck with yesterday’s events any more than you are required to hang on to yesterday’s newspapers. Don’t be afraid of what’s gone before. Likewise, don’t utilize those mistakes or challenges of days gone by as excuses to be less than who you are and to live a less glorious Life.

God is granting you complete absolution every day. He is calling you to let go of the past, to be ready to accept His guidance for life going forward—grateful for all the good that has come into your experience, but without going into perpetual mourning over it. It is time to take off the widow’s weeds, the dark cloak that hides your promise and potential. There is nothing to be ashamed of. You and your life are always redeemable because God’s Love has never been conditional.

Don’t be afraid and don’t overthink. Just let God lead you forward and onward. All the good will stay with you, as it always has, and your cleansed mind will have room to entertain new angels, Life’s goodness ripe for today!

Daily Inspiration, August 26th

Posted on August 26, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“You’re familiar with the old written law, ‘Love your friend,’ and its unwritten companion, ‘Hate your enemy.’ I’m challenging that. I’m telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst…In a word, what I’m saying is, Grow up. You’re kingdom subjects. Now live like it. Live out your God-created identity. Live generously and graciously toward others, the way God lives toward you.” (Matthew 5:43, 48, Message Bible)

You aren’t always going to get treated as well as you deserve. You are very likely going to come across people that make you feel angry or hurt. Human behavior is variable and flawed. It may present a picture of individuals who merit your hatred, resentment, and who seem to invite your contempt or at the very least strong disagreement.

But Jesus is telling us here, according to this translation, that we need to grow up. It is not about how others act, it is about how we act and how we think. It’s easy to be loving and understanding toward people with common viewpoints and genial personalities. But we must and can take love to higher level and one which is much more healing. To live out our “God-created identity;” to honor Him and the infinite measure of His Love toward us, we must be expansive with our own love.

And in this way our “enemies” do bring out the best in us, not the worst. When we yield to this higher and broader sense of Love, we are uplifted ourselves. By seeing past human behavior to the fact of God’s true man, the one He created and loves, we are able to be more like Him, be more powerful in good and more free and happy.

Let’s take up this challenge. Let’s recognize that lack of love is never justified, nor is love ever beyond your capacity. God is Love. You are the reflection of His Love. It is infinitely more natural to love, to forgive, and to feel free of anger than it is to hate and to resent and to do mental battle against those we don’t agree with. We can do better. We can grow up enough to take the high road, beginning with our thinking, and simply love all, no matter what, because it blesses others but also because it will surely bless us as well.

Daily Inspiration, August 21st

Posted on August 21, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” (Psalms 61: 1-2)

We have a rescue. There is a power that we can call upon and claim when things seem overwhelming and we can’t get our bearings. No matter how far away from good we feel, God is always right where we are; ready to respond with grace, guidance, and peace. Even the inspired psalmist, who praised God often and poetically, was faced with crises, and confusion. Yet he was perhaps clear enough only to know where he must turn.

When our hearts are overwhelmed, when we feel emotional, alone, confused, disappointed, afraid, we can find our escape in God. We can let ourselves be lifted to that rock that is higher than we are, higher than the ego that would claim so much worry, doubt, and lack of peace. We can escape that sense of self that feels vulnerable and mortal for that Christ-Truth of our being—the rock that is the divine Mind, the one powerful and true Mind, the Ego that is always right and clear and real.

Our prayer is a release from a self-perspective to a God-perspective. It is giving up that personal sense that would try to separate us from good and from that heart of Love that is never overwhelmed but always full, loving, safe, clear, and at peace.

No matter where we seem to be, we are truly always in God’s loving presence. We can call upon Him at any time. We can let Him lead us to His healing, assuring, triumphant rock, the saving grace of divine Love.

Daily Inspiration, August 19th

Posted on August 19, 2014 by LauraMoliter

“You must submit to and endure [correction] for discipline; God is dealing with you as with sons. For what son is there whom his father does not [thus] train and correct and discipline? Now if you are exempt from correction and left without discipline in which all [or God’s children] share, then you are illegitimate offspring and not true sons [at all].” (Hebrews 12: 7-8, Amplified Bible)

The nature of God’s love for us includes some necessary correction. We can’t go along doing the wrong thing, thinking or acting out of line with what is the highest right, and expect to get away with it. This is not punishment. It is your Father’s great love for you being expressed.

So we should not be ashamed when this disciplining comes, these various wake-up calls, both gentle and strong. The correcting comes because we are children of the divine One, and this Parent wants us to be well, happy, successful, wise. This Parent wants us to feel fully and express freely the very substance of what She knows is so right and healing. We are being taught about true Love by the greatest expert on this subject–divine Love itself.

Listen and receive this chiding without self-justification or self-pity, and also without fear. God shows us what we are doing wrong so we can give it up for the better way. He isn’t holding it against us. He is, just as a father, instructing us out of our ignorance and showing us not only how to be better, but why being better is really just being our true selves as sons and daughters of God. And this natural selfhood is so freeing, healing, and satisfying.
