  I Realize the Presence of God "Expectancy speeds progress. Therefore, I live in a continual state of expectancy. No matter how much I am experiencing today, I expect greater good tomorrow. I expect to meet new friends. I expect to meet new and wonderful experiences. I know that when I live in harmony with the Divine Presence in and around me, I will be protected by Its power. No harm can come to...

My Faith Causes the Unseen to Become Visible "I know that the Spirit, which is Life, is present everywhere. Like the air I breathe, It presses against me, on the mountaintop, in the valley, in the desert, and on the ocean, It is ever present. There is peace at the center of my being, a peace that can be felt throughout the day and in the cool of the evening. I dwell on the unity that underlies eve...

  I Am Held in the Goodness of God "I know that there is no influence, either visible or invisible, other than the influence of pure Spirit, acting perfectly upon all people.

I believe that every affirmation I make will immediately tak...

Aware of my unity with Life...

I Feast on the Idea of Abundance "The One Spirit manifests itself in and through all, including me. I accept with positive certainty that the Spirit within me goes before me and prepares my way, making perfect, plain, straight, easy, and happy the pathway of my experience. There is nothing in me that can obstruct the Divine circuits of Life, of Love, of Beauty and Truth. My word dissolves every ne...

I Have Limitless Faith "My knowledge that the great I Am is ever available gives me an increasing capacity to draw upon It and to become inwardly aware of the presence of Spirit. There is something at the center of my being that is absolutely certain of itself. It gives me complete assurance that all is well. I Am a Divine Being here and now. I know that in this consciousness of Reality is the sup...

Today I Take Constructive Action "It is only as I let go of the lesser than I can take hold of the greater, only as I drop confusion that I can entertain peace, only as I transcend doubt and fear that I can be lifted up to the hilltops of the inner Life. I identify myself with the greatness of Spirit and breathe in Its Almighty Power. I allow my consciousness to rise to a broader and fuller realiz...

I Accept the Fullness of Life "Today I cease weeping over the mistakes of yesterday and steadfastly behold the face of the great and divine Reality.

Today, bright with hope and filled with promise, is mine. Today my heart is without fear....

I Abide in the Realization of Divine Union "I always have been, and forever will remain, a complete and perfect expression of the Eternal Mind, which is God, the living Spirit Almighty. Today I enter into the limitless variations of self-expression that the Divine Spirit projects into my experience. Knowing that all experience is a play of Life upon itself, the blossoming of love into self-express...

  I Am a Manifestation of Spirit "I commune with the invisible Presence within me until there comes a certainty that is beyond hope, something that enables me to see the future as clear-eyed as I see the past. I have the joy of knowing I will live forever. I am aware of the Divine within me. Peace, quiet, and confidence flow through my thought. I know that inspiration and guidance are mine. I perm...

I Am Rich with the Richness of God "The Divine will never fail me so long as I have implicit faith in It. If I feel myself getting caught in fear and doubt, I take time to reaffirm my union with the great outflowing givingness of Life. I take time for prayer and meditation. In this way I am always receptive to the gift of abundance that God has already made.   Today I accept the gift of God's abun...

I see more clearly than ever that my Divine birthright is freedom, joy...

I Am on the Pathway of Endless Unfoldment "A universal and infinite Intelligence governs everything, holds everything in its place, and directs the course of everything. The Intelligence that governs the planets in their courses is the same Intelligence that is manifesting in me. The use I make of It to direct and govern my activities depends upon my personal choice. Today I am governed by the Wis...

Spirit Flows Through My Consciousness into Action "There is an eternal springtime in my soul. Always rising but never setting is the sun of my destiny. I refuse to worry about anything.

I Live As an Immortal Being For I am the Lord, I change not. —MALACHI 3:6     "The stamp of individuality is eternal.

Divine Mind Pervades Every Atom of My Body "Spiritual Substance is my physical perfection. No one knows exactly what the mind is, but we certainly know that it is something within us that enables us to be conscious and aware. We are told to let the Mind be in us that was in Christ. What can this mean other than that each should recognize the Divine Incarnation in himself? It was this realization o...

All Things Are Made Out of Life It is the Spirit that quickeneth. —JOHN 6:63     "How wonderful to realize that from one formless and invisible Substance everything that is visible comes.

When we recognize life...
