God Wants You To Know #61 On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know... ...that when you pray for anyone, you tend to modify your personal attitude toward them.
Norman Vincent Peale said that, and he touched on something truly profound. If someone is vexing you right now, say a prayer for that person. Send them all of your best energies.
Nothing changes the environment like one person deciding to love another, no matter what.
You know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #62 On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know... ..that morning comes every day; the sunrise does not fail, nor the sunset.
Give it time. That is all that may be required. Just give it time. Do not try to push the river. The cycles of life present themselves, play themselves out, and make smooth every passage and terrain.
Try not to get caught up in your story of the moment. Look, rather, to the Long Story. Therein will be found your peace. The cycles will redeem this moment, if you let them, and even this shall pass.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #63 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that Life is conspiring in your favor.
It may not always look that way, but it is, I assure you. Everything that is happening, is happening just the way it must, in order for you to have the opportunity to create the experience of your Self for which you yearn.
The idea behind all of this is to give you a chance to become and to know, at the highest level, Who You Really Are. This is God Work we are up to, you and I. So keep on.
God Wants You To Know #64 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that your kindness has been observed -- and, more than observed, deeply appreciated -- by another.
Sometimes it may feel as if we go through life and nobody notices any of the "good" things we do, only the "bad." It may seem that way, but this is not true. Why, this very moment someone thought of you, and of a kindness you have done.
Your soul may have even tingled a little just now. (It does that when it receives good energy.)
So keep sending out those kindnesses, my friend. You are becoming known for them...
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #65 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that there is no such thing as a "bad omen," so you don't have to avoid black cats today.
Or ladders. Or cracks in the sidewalk. Friday the 13th can be the Best Day of Your Life So Far. And it will be if you choose to see everything in your life today as a miracle.
That includes the growing of the grass, the passing of a cloud, the smile on another's face...and the beating of your own heart.
Live the miracle that is Life today, and do not worry about "bad omens." Remember, nothing is evil, lest thinking make it so. (Wm. Shakespeare)
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #66 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... .that the supernatural is the natural not yet understood.
Elbert Hubbard said that, and he was right. William Shakespeare put it another way: There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
All of which is to say, do not be too surprised by the inexplicable. And if you've been wondering whether you can trust this thing called God--the answer is yes.
Hey, you asked for a sign and here it is--literally out of the blue. So smile. Okay?
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #67 On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know... ...that there is only one way to go, and that's up.
I know that it is possible for life to look, sometimes, as if it's going downhill, as if everything is falling apart. But consider this: When life is 'falling apart' things could actually be falling together...maybe for the first time.
Try to not see things that are not there -- and do not fail to see things that are...
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today. .
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #68 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ..that everything you see, hear, touch, taste, smell, or sense in any way is an aspect of Divinity.
It is when you judge it to be something else that it shows up as something else in your life. Therefore, judge not, and neither condemn.
For that which you judge, judges you; and that which you condemn will condemn you. Yet that which you see for what it really is will see you for what you really are. And therein will be found your peace.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #69 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... .that you are innocent. You are blameless. You are without foible or fault of any kind.
I know you do not believe this about yourself, but do you believe this of the three-year-old beautiful child? And what makes you think that you are anything less in the eyes of God?
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #70 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that you are perfect just the way you are.
Yes, yes, I know...you and I have lots of the same judgments about ourselves. But you know what? God holds none of these judgments.
If you saw yourself as God sees you, you would smile a lot.
So smile. And go forth now into your day, sharing the wonder of Who You Are and who you now choose to be. For we are blessed in you. Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #71 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that there is no 'right way' to do anything, there is only the way you are doing it.
Never be afraid to "try your hand" because you don't want to might make a mistake or not do somerthing "right." Success in life comes from being willing to move into Unchartered Territory.
Always remember: Life begins at the end of your Comfort Zone.
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #72 6-24 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that there's more where that came from.
This is a key teaching; a most important message. The goodness of the Universe is not limited. When something "looks as if" it is running out, do not fret. This, or something better, is on its way.
Sufficiency is the natural order of things. Good never runs out -- although it may change form.
Did you get that last part? Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #73 6-25 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that it is not necessary to "prove yourself" to anyone.
Do your best. That's all you can ask of yourself. If you did your best and things just didn't work out, you don't owe an apology to anyone. And you certainly don't need to feel 'bad' about it -- or, worse yet, guilty.
Stop beating yourself up. What happened is what happened. You're not the 'villain' here, I promise. It's just what happened. And there is a Soul Reason, I promise you. Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #74 6-26 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that you must be willing to lose it all before you can have it all.
What does this mean? It means that until you can let go of everything, you will find it hard to hold onto anything.
Detachment is the key. If you are so attached to something that you are deeply unhappy without it, then you are not simply attached, you are addicted.
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #75 6-27 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that you are valued more than you know, by more people than you think.
It might be good to get in touch today with your true worth. It is much higher than you often give it credit for being -- and now is a perfect time to know, and to gently assert, that fact.
This is not about arrogance and it is not about over confidence. It is about a simple, dignified Knowing.
You will not have to think but a second to understand precisely why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #76 6-30 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that you've got to have a dream if you want to have a dream come true.
Denis Waitley said that, and he was right. So specify your dream; clarify and quantify your vision. Do not aim for a target that you cannot see.
And don't you dare reduce your dream to its smallest component. Enlarge it to its biggest. You can have that. You can. Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #77 7-1 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that not to decide is to decide.
Letting something go until it "decides itself" is Life by Default. You don't want to live that way. So choose. Choose right now.
Stop worrying about what you can "lose" or how you can "win" and just follow your joy. Where does your joy say you should go?
You know exactly why you heard this today...
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #78 7-2 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that impatience will get you nowhere, fast.
If you insist on being in a hurry, you'll move very quickly -- and often get nowhere. Take a breath. Relax. Find your peace.
Don't require the Universe to move more rapidly than it is. It is actually working perfectly, and it will prove that to you if you will give it a chance.
Really. Trust me on this.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #79 7-3 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that thinking the highest thought is the safest mental exercise.
Do not be tempted to think the smallest thought or to lower your expectations so that anything above that will be considered a "win" for you. You will have already lost...
Your safety will not be found in working hard to avoid disappointment, but in hardly working to produce more and more life. Aim high. Ride easy. Trust God.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #80 7-4
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that independence is your soul's natural state, and Freedom is another name for God.
The Divine is that which is totally free, all the time. Nothing constricts It, nothing limits It, nothing stops It or prohibits It or denies It in any way.
You are exactly the same. Your soul is nothing more than an Individuation of Divinity...and it is absolutely nothing less. Act as if you are divinely free today -- and watch your life change.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #81 7-7
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... .....that disappointment is your thought that God doesn't know what God is doing.
That, of couse, is impossible. So try to not be disappointed in anything. Know that life is showing up perfectly in every moment.
Today's disappointment could be tomorrow's springboard to all that you've ever wanted. In fact, it probably is.
You will not have to think very hard to know exactly why you received this message today... Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #82 7-8
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that life will resolve itself in the process of life itself.
Let the moment play itself out. Try to not push the river. Life knows what It has in mind. Trust Life. It is on your side.
Do you know how I know? You are still here.
How much more proof do you need? Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #83 7-9 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that without knowing who you are and why you are here, life has no meaning.
Seek, then, to study the questions. Work to experience the grandest answers. Who You Are is an Individuation of Divinity. Why you are here is to demonstrate that.
Today is going to offer you a perfect chance to do that. Watch. Listen. Before the end of this day, you will have a chance to be Divine. Indeed, someone is counting on you to.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #84 7-10 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that the fastest way to learn something is to teach it.
Do not wait, therefore, until you "know all about it" or have "mastered" what you wish to share before you begin to share it.
The world needs more of what you wish to learn more of. So teach. Share. Help others. And do not worry so much about what you "don't know." Worry about what you don't do. Because you are robbing us while you are waiting to become an "expert."
You know exactly what you heard this today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #85 7-11 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... .....that you have only just begun to discover your magnificence.
This period of your life marks a New Beginning. You can feel it. And you have only just begun to know the treasure and the glory of You. And you have only just begun to make your Real and Lasting Contribution.
So step into this day with zest and zeal! Go now and give your gift. We're all waiting for you. And we need the wonder of Who You Are.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #85 7-14
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... .....that he who eats till he is sick must fast till he is well.
That is a Hebrew proverb, and it has to do with a lot more than food. Look to see what behaviors you are indulging in over and over again that are clearly not serving you. Then, go on a "bad habit diet."
I mean it. I'm not kidding, Pick one bad habit, one bad behavior, a day for five days. You can do this. Stop doing the stuff you're doing that obviously does not serve you--or others.
This friendly "nudge" came from your Self, you know...
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #86 7-15 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that no effort is ever wasted, although some pay dividends later than you think.
Do not imagine that you "wasted your time" because something didn't turn out right. There is no such thing as "waste" in the Universe. Everything -- everything -- yields benefit.
It's true. And your life will show you this. So don't decry the "effort that failed." All things lead to your highest good. You just may not know it yet.
You know even now why you just read this...
This friendly "nudge" came from your Self, you know...
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #87 7-16 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that there are no guarantees in life...except that all things happen for God's best reason.
If you need to know in advance that everything will "work out" before you jump in, you'll never jump into anything.
Yet "jumping in" is life's greatest excitement, its grandest adventure. Don't deny yourself that. Just go for it. Trust that Life will bring you benefit no matter what happens.
You know exactly why you read this just now...
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #88 7-17
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that imagination is your greatest gift. Do not be afraid to use it.
Imagine yourself as being okay right now. Totally okay. Imagine yourself as Whole, Complete, and Perfect. With nothing to change, nothing to "improve."
Imagine your heart as being open again, your life as if it were starting over in the most important ways. Can you imagine this? Then you have just created Tomorrow.
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you read this message just now.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #89 7-18
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that life is about your soul, not about your body and not about your mind.
Most people work hard to keep the body happy. Then they seek to stimulate their mind. Then...if there is time... they look after their soul. Yet the most beneficial priority has it just the other way around.
When was the last time you paid attention to your soul?
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #90 7-21 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that fear is one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.
Bertrand Russell said that, and he was right. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross said, "Fear and guilt are the only enemies of man." She was right, too. And Franklin Roosevelt famously said, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself."
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #91 7-22
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ....that earthly possessions are not what you came here to gather.
Do not worry about your earthly possessions. Place your attention on your heavenly goal--the evolution of your soul--and you will find peace even while on earth.
You will not have to think but a second to know exactly why you received this message today.
Love, Your Friend....
God Wants You To Know #92 On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that the events of this very day will move you closer to God.
That is what they were designed to do, and you will experience them doing just that if you will allow yourself to.
It is all a matter of opening your eyes to what is really happening (as opposed to what it looks like is happening). Judge not by outward appearances.

more of. So teach. Share. Help others. And do not
worry so much about what you "don't know." Worry
about what you don't do. Because you are robbing us
while you are waiting to become an "expert."
You know exactly what you heard this today.

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
.....that he who eats till he is sick must fast till he is well.
That is a Hebrew proverb, and it has to do with a lot
more than food. Look to see what behaviors you are
indulging in over and over again that are clearly not
serving you. Then, go on a "bad habit diet."
I mean it. I'm not kidding, Pick one bad habit, one
bad behavior, a day for five days. You can do this.
Stop doing the stuff you're doing that obviously
does not serve you--or others.
This friendly "nudge" came from your Self, you know...

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that no effort is ever wasted, although some pay
dividends later than you think.
Do not imagine that you "wasted your time" because
something didn't turn out right. There is no such thing
as "waste" in the Universe. Everything -- everything --
yields benefit.
It's true. And your life will show you this. So don't
decry the "effort that failed." All things lead to your
highest good. You just may not know it yet.
You know even now why you just read this...

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that there are no guarantees in life...except that all
things happen for God's best reason.
If you need to know in advance that everything will
"work out" before you jump in, you'll never jump into
anything.
Yet "jumping in" is life's greatest excitement, its grandest
adventure. Don't deny yourself that. Just go for it. Trust
that Life will bring you benefit no matter what happens.

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that imagination is your greatest gift. Do not be afraid
to use it.
Imagine yourself as being okay right now. Totally okay.
Imagine yourself as Whole, Complete, and Perfect. With
nothing to change, nothing to "improve."
Imagine your heart as being open again, your life as if it
were starting over in the most important ways. Can you
imagine this? Then you have just created Tomorrow.
You will not have to think but a second to know
exactly why you read this message just now.

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that life is about your soul, not about your body and
not about your mind.
Most people work hard to keep the body happy. Then
they seek to stimulate their mind. Then...if there is time...
they look after their soul. Yet the most beneficial priority
has it just the other way around.
When was the last time you paid attention to your soul?

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
...that fear is one of the main sources of cruelty. To
conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.
Bertrand Russell said that, and he was right. Elisabeth
Kubler-Ross said, "Fear and guilt are the only enemies
of man." She was right, too. And Franklin Roosevelt
famously said, "We have nothing to fear but fear
itself."

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that earthly possessions are not what you came here
to gather.
Do not worry about your earthly possessions. Place
your attention on your heavenly goal--the evolution of
your soul--and you will find peace even while on earth.

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
...that the events of this very day will move you closer
to God.
That is what they were designed to do, and you will
experience them doing just that if you will allow
yourself to.
It is all a matter of opening your eyes to what is really
happening (as opposed to what it looks like is
happening). Judge not by outward appearances.
