If you can find gratitude (and I promise it is there) in any circumstance, you take back your power and you enable yourself to find a solution or choose a different path.

I remember one time traveling to our family’s favorite vacation spot alone, looking forward to meeting my family there after a couple days being apart. I called my husband’s cell phone and his cousin answered. As he took the phone to Clint, I could hear his voice in the distance and his ever present laughter. I seriously had the same butterflies I had when we were first dating. It was so joyful to hear his familiar voice in anticipation of re-uniting with my favorite guy.

Home and family means something different to everyone. One of our live callers is leaving her home today, as she is moving to a new space. Emotions were close to the surface at the thought of saying good-bye. Another caller mentioned that he realized ‘home’ encompasses community. As he rode towards his home on a bus, he noticed the shops and familiar sights and sounds of home as it relates to his neighborhood. 

Even mundane chores bring familiarity that is somehow comforting within home and family.

Truth, as it resonates in the heart, feels familiar. I believe the memory of our first home in heaven is there, deep within us. Even if we can’t remember with our brains, we can recognize the familiar truths we knew while we existed in the presence of God and our brother, Jesus.

Today, I Give Myself Permission to Embrace the Familiar

• I recognize truth
• I love my home
• I am comfortable in my own skin
• I know who I am
• I am happy
• I am content with what is
• I love my life
• I am grateful for all my experiences
• I notice what is true and I align with it
• I question old beliefs and upgrade them often
• I easily settle into my new adventures
• I move quickly and easily
• I am familiar with God’s purpose and I trust Him
• I am familiar with change
• The new life I am embracing is very quickly becoming familiar!

Even if we can’t remember with our brains, we can recognize the familiar truths we knew while we existed in the presence of God and our brother, Jesus.

We humans have been blessed with the capacity to feel extreme pain, fear, anger and other low vibration emotions. Some even live in a kind of darkness for years and still survive!

We also have the capacity for extreme light. We feel the highs of Joy, Gratitude, Love and all the other high vibration emotions, in equal intensity to the lows.

I shared with a client who had experienced a sustained period of disappointment in her business a month or so ago, to visualize the lows as a trampoline bounce. The deeper the bounce, the higher her ability to soar upward.

Christ descended below us all, and therefore, is worthy to ascend to infinite glory.

In our lives, we constantly experience fear as we consider stepping outside of our comfort zones. That fear of anticipation is quickly replaced with faith and calm as we courageously leap outside the bounds of our comfort zone into the ready arms of God who has been waiting patiently to catch us when we leap.

When we give up the fears of the flesh and give all to God, we experience the emotions that exist within God’s realm. Only light, joy and purpose live where God is. All other emotions exist in the belief of our limitation that is only true within our minds.

The design of life is to experience the highs and lows, pleasure and pain, health and sickness, good and evil. It was so in the Garden of Eden as Adam and Eve were faced with the choice to live in ignorant bliss or to partake of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and know opposition. And it is true for us today. Opposition brings growth and the wisdom of experience.

Within our comfort zones is safety and predictability. Outside of our comfort zones is freedom to feel uncertainty and new adventure. Rather than to believe it’s more than you can handle, believe that it’s more than you can imagine. Human capacity can handle anything. Human imagination is the spiritual creation of what is to come. If you can imagine it, you can handle it.

Today, I Give Myself Permission to Leap Beyond My Self-Imposed Limits

• The reality is better than I can imagine
• I choose freedom
• I am ready to experience the full range of human capacity
• I am enough
• I leap into God’s waiting arms
• I am comfortable in God’s realm where creation happens
• I let go of my human limitations and give all to God
• I have limitless capacity for joy, gratitude and love
• I welcome the deeper bounce that produces the momentum to soar!

I have noticed that when I schedule time to do anything, I improve incrementally at an exponential rate. Seems contradictory, but it’s true.

When I scheduled 10 minutes per day to create a facebook live about The Seven Gateways in my book, I found amazing new insights within each gateway that I never knew! My own Seven Gateways Book taught ME!

The same with anything – if we schedule time to work out every day, or we clean up clutter for 10 minutes per day, or we do our Daily GPS consistently, day by day the physical evidence that shows up eventually proves that incremental improvement can produce exponential results.

Martha, on our call talked about being inspired to give 10% of her time to God. And that when she schedules that in, she gets her cup filled so that she is never depleted. and…BONUS…my guess is that tons of other people benefit as well, because usually God’s work involves serving another person.

Schedule time to walk with a friend and you are doing more than just walking for exercise. You are connecting with another human, feeding your social needs. You are invigorating your mind and energy, and you may be talking about uplifting things that can change the world!

Scheduled time is deliberate action on a goal. Short-term goals like cleaning the house benefit from scheduled time. And long-term goals like eternal commitment within a marriage benefit from scheduled time. In fact, as Michael on our call explained, scheduling time for a long-term commitment, actually frees the mind, heart and spirit to focus on the mundane.

When we schedule time to improve us, we cannot help touching others in a positive way.

Today, I Give Myself Permission to UN-Selfishly Schedule Time for ME!

• My systems produce success
• I choose actions that MUST create success
• I schedule time for my own success
• My success touches the lives of others in positive ways
• I give myself time to fill my cup
• I schedule time to fill myself with Living Water
• I schedule time to give of the infinite Living Water within me

For 20 years. my husband and I took our kids to a favorite vacation spot every summer. Almost all of our vacation memories are at that lakefront property.

In recent weeks, we have commented how our backyard has the same vibe as that special summer location. For us, every day is a vacation when we take the time to enjoy our own backyard. Today’s meditation on Gratitude for Traveling with Friends gave me pause to realize how inexpensive and easy it can be to create an experience of rejuvenation and respite that we try to create with travel.

Taking that one step further, several of our live call participants shared fun experiences where friends and travel miles allowed travel to be very inexpensive and more interesting than it would have been without the offers of generous friends.

I have had opportunities to experience the adventure and uncertainty that travel tends to afford. One of our callers mentioned how getting lost driving in an unfamiliar area of the country resulted in the lesson that God is always traveling with us and it’s better to travel with Him, rather than to travel with anger and resentment. Another caller has learned that travel is a great way to get to know someone at their best and at their worst. The unpredictability and resulting stress of travel can help you decide if you really want to hang onto certain friends or let them go.

Traveling with friends can mean going on a vacation or business trip. Or it can mean traveling through life. I do believe that God intended this earth life to be traveled with friends. We all have gifts that are useless unless applied to others. Life was not meant to be a solo journey; invite a friend.

Today, I Give Myself Permission to Enjoy My Adventure

• I am willing to interrupt my journey to connect with a friend
• Friends bring variety to my experience
• I am happy and fulfilled myself. Friends increase my happiness to overflowing
• My destination is only reachable with friends to guide and travel with me
• We travel better together
• I share the load with a friend who is traveling the same direction as me
• God is my friend
• Christ is my travel companion
• I am excited to see the itinerary my friends and I come up with
• There are some people who I choose to travel constantly through life with
• There are some friends who travel with me for a memorable moment

I am so grateful for a serendipitous connection with several people yesterday. Events transpired that brought everyone into the same 10′ x 10′ room at the same time! The result was nothing short of life-altering!

If these friends had not been generous with their time, talents and purpose, we would have never had the experience.

Felicia, one of our live callers, reminded us of uplifting music that stirs and enlarges the soul. How grateful I am for YouTube and other media channels where this inspiring medium can be shared freely and generously to create instant connection. I am so grateful for those who are gifted in creating and performing heart-warming music.

We can all be richly blessed by the generosity of friends (known or anonymous) if we let rich blessings in. Mary commented on our call that if our hearts are open to receive, we will be filled with abundance through generous friends.

God is generous. He is generous with His gifts and He is generous with His attention to me, even if I am not particularly conscious of Him. We all have the Light of Christ and, as Martha on our call mentioned, God is within each of us! There is a place within us that is our God Center. That is where generosity and all good aspects of our being come from. If I radiate the light and energy of God from that space when friends approach me, they literally can feel all fear disappear in the presence of God.

Today, I Give Myself Permission to Open My Heart to Give AND Receive

• I radiate God’s love
• I seek for opportunities to share God’s love
• I have all I need and enough to share
• My presence is felt
• I am enough
• I have enough to share
• I am blessed with the generosity of others
• I am exuding light and love
• I am free to be
• I am generous with myself
• I am inviting serendipitous experiences into my life
• I am creating a beautiful network of support
• I am rejoicing in the angels surrounding me
• I am seeing and focusing on the abundance generosity within my reach
• I am bringing lost sheep to Christ through generously living my purpose

(Thanks to Mary and Tyrie for sharing your new beliefs to create the list above)
