Seeking inner bliss...

Dear God,

Please clear my mind from distractions
Which bubble like seltzer foaming over the rim.
Let me be like a still pool, calm and reflective
For I have decisions to make.

I seek meaningful work, using my strengths to benefit others.
I seek financial security which lets me be generous, independent and debt free.
I seek flexibility in schedule so I can care for myself and be available to others.
I seek the wisdom to make right choices from a place of confidence not fear.
I seek service to others without self sabotage.
I seek to dwell in Grace leaving behind the need for challenges to prove my faith.

Clear my mind, sweet Spirit and calm my heart. Help me dwell in gratitude and appreciation for all that I am, all that I have and all that I can be and not what i have lost.

Let me be a reflection of the love that is made in your image along with wisdom, justice and power.

Let me celebrate the experience and lessons of my years, realizing that lifting spirits requires a strong heart not a strong body.

Let me clothe myself with kindness for it is always the perfect fit. Let my glasses be rose colored in compassion to tint my world view and spread peace from understanding.


Remind me daily that joy comes with self possession not from possessing more things. Help me fill my emptiness with creativity not mindless calories knowing that my appetite is for a fuller life not a fuller stomach.

Let me rest easy in surrender of situations beyond my control. Misery is random but happiness is intentional.

May this day be blessed for me and for all.
