A World at Prayer

WORD FOR THE DAY
Thursday, Apr. 10
www.gratefulness.org

"The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy. Daily prayers are delivered on the lips of breaking waves, the whisperings of grasses, the shimmering of leaves."

-- Terry Tempest Williams
from Talking to God: Portrait of a World at Prayer (anthology)


Once we tap into the Oneness of Life, we cannot help but feel intricately connected to our fellow human beings, all of the animal kingdom and the plants which sustain our very lives.

Upon truly knowing this holiness, as a collective we will then act with reverence and respect for all life. When that critical mass of consciousness is reached, then our peaceful efforts will spread forth even more rapidly to all corners of the Earth.

Thank you for doing your Piece 4 Peace in holding this vision of world peace!

How to Change the World

One of my longtime favorite quotes...

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”

~ Margaret Mead

The Moses Code: Inspirational Movie & World Peace Vigil

If you are interested in personal and planetary spiritual evolution, be sure to join James Tyman, Debbie Ford, Neale Donald Walsch, Iyanla Vanzant, Michael Beckwith and many others by watching this unique and touching film.



Check out www.themosescode.com for more details.

The authors, speakers, teachers and spiritual activists who were interviewed for this film were very insightful and inspirational.


The Moses Code Website invited us to...
Join millions of people from every corner of the globe in activating a 3500 year old technology that has been banned since the time of Moses. Then on April 6th, we will activate the Code and focus it on the Middle East.

For the first time a major spiritual film is being combined with a worldwide prayer vigil focused on shifting the planetary consciousness. There will be over 1000 gatherings that weekend, and you could help sponsor one in your town.

** Even though this event happened this past weekend, you can still view the movie online via video stream from their website and/or purchase the DVD and book. http://www.themosescode.com/

An Update from The Moses Code Website About the April 6th Event:
Hundreds of thousands of people joined together for a "virtual hug" Peace Vigil of Jerusalem on April 6th, using the Moses Code to awaken the destiny of the "City of Peace."

Where do we go from here? Our intention is to continue the momentum of this vigil and build a group of committed spiritual peacemakers for others projects and prayer vigils. You can help us by keeping attuned and spreading the word. We hope you'll consider joining our email list so we can contact you, along with thousands of others, at a moment's notice to participate in using the most powerful manifestation tool in history. Together we can realize our own destiny of creating a world based upon the laws of compassion and peace.

You can download or listen to the vigil meditation used on April 6th by clicking the links on their website. If it's anything like my movie viewing experience, I hope you will feel the same power of intention that each of us felt Friday evening.

A personal, special thanks to Robin Cunningham Myers of Wholistic Alternatives who sponsored the local viewing of this film in Baton Rouge, LA!http://www.byregion.net/cgibin/users/profiles.pl?username=wholisticalternatives

Powerful Thoughts on Peace

In preparation for our upcoming 4th CM1111 Event at the end of this week, I was looking for some external inspiration this morning. I happened to run across my Power Thought Cards by Louise Hay.



I set my intention and specifically pulled a
card for each of the following.

The quote is from one side of the card and the paragraph is from the other side for deeper meaning/further meditation. These are followed by my personal interpretations.

MY OWN INNER PEACE

"As I say yes to life, Life says YES to me!"

Life mirrors my every thought.
As I keep my thoughts positive,
life brings to me only good experiences.

-- This reminds me of a part of the movie called The Moses Code that I had the pleasure of viewing this past weekend (see next blog entry for details). The speakers were explaining how when we say YES that things really start to happen! Getting the thought that we are not good enough, that we don't have enough money to get something started, that we don't the time, etc etc -- these are all just excuses to keep us from stepping up to the plate and doing something, that something which spoke to our soul.

Dr. Michael Beckwith stated that when he got the inspiration to say yes, he was not in the same place he is now...but he did it anyway. And when he said yes, the Universe said yes, too! It provided the right people, money, buildings, opportunities, etc. Through this process of trusting and believing that everything would be provided, it was and it allowed him to personally evolve so that he could help others.

The movie was a wonderful source of inspiration I hope you all have a chance to enjoy. Check out http://www.themosescode.com/ for more information.

SEEKING A MESSAGE OF INNER PEACE FOR SOME OF MY FRIENDS WHO ARE GOING THROUGH CHALLENGING TIMES RIGHT NOW

"The past is over."

This is a new day, one that I have never lived before.
I stay in the Now and enjoy each and every moment.

-- What a wonderful for message for all of us! Even though I am feeling that my life is becoming more and more in the flow, there are very often bumps in the road that can start to slow me down or tend to divert my path. By embracing every day as a new day, I give myself permission to reinvent myself and create my own reality in each and every moment.

This can build on my personal message of keeping my thoughts positive and it will have a rippling effect to others. For those of us going through challenges right now, it reminds us that this, too, will pass. The past is the past, yet we can be grateful for it has made us who we are today!

FOR MY LOCAL COMMUNITY

"I am willing to change."

I am willing to release old, negative beliefs.
They are only thoughts that stand in my way.
My new thoughts are positive and fulfilling.

-- Since Hurricane Katrina, I have found that the overall vibe in the city of New Orleans is different. Despite the devastation and countless tragedies that occurred, there is a tangible sense of the human spirit which connects us all.

People began truly helping one another and a sense of community has emerged greater than ever before. We were drastically and dramatically forced into change, and through it all that change is becoming more and more positive.

Please note: I am not saying there are no longer challenges to overcome which seem overwhelming and hopeless at times; rather, I cannot help but feel a commonality uniting the general population where before there were large(r) divisions. There is still a lot of change which needs to take place, yet I believe it has begun...in the hearts and minds of its residents.

FOR THE WORLD PEACE VISION AND MISSION

"Every thought I think is creating my future."

The Universe totally supports every thought I choose to think and believe.
I have unlimited choices about what I think.
I choose balance, harmony and peace, and I express it in my life.

-- When we each choose to think and be peace, there will be peace in our world! Thank you all for your continued support for a more peaceful planet.

I look forward to connecting with all of you this Friday, April 11th at 11:11am!

Namaste, my friends.
