REAL LIFE MAGIC



"Spiritual Power is of no particular value until we use It. We must not only be conscious of this Power, we must be actively conscious of it."  --Ernest Holmes

Inside each of us is the ability to be, do, or experience exactly we want in life. This ability comes from a connection with Spirit.  The Creative Intelligence of God is behind all creation, humans, animals, planets, stars. Life is too miraculous to have happened by accident: monarch butterflies, birds, bears--knowing when to migrate or hibernate; spiders knowing how to create webs out of their own bodies; zebra finches with their brown spotted wings, shedding feathers and the growing the same spotted feathers to take their place; and the list goes on.

Each of us has a direct connection with the Infinite, God is in us, around us, and moves through us, and acts as us. We say an affirmative prayer and have faith that the prayer will be answered. Perhaps that prayer is for the right and perfect new job. We apply for that job and perhaps it doesn't come about. Then weeks later a job presents itself that is even better, and it does come about. Maybe that should always be in our prayer when we pray, for a job, a new relationship, a new home, "This or something better."

"Miracles happen through natural and normal circumstances, and the "new science" of quantum physics is proving that we are--every one of us--already wired for miracles."                Michael C. Rann & Elizabeth Rann Arrott,               -Shortcut to a Miracle

How do you pray, is it to a god in Heaven or to the God who resides within you? Where does you deepest inspiration come from? Are you guided to a certain book, does the right song play on the radio just when you need to hear it, when you have said an affirmative prayer, or thought, "God I could use a little help here" and then the right person or situation crosses you path as if by magic, was that random? My thought is to say or think your prayer with conviction and then allow Spirit to bring it about.

Love and light,

Sandy Smith

 BE KIND TO YOURSELF "Things always get better. When you believe this, it becomes true. In the same way as you don't believe it doesn't get better, it doesn't get better."   Sandra Lindsey Smith, -- "Life's Garden Grows" Have you ever noticed how readily we rush to forgive other people for the minute, negative observations they say about themselves, but it is much more difficult for you to forgive yourself for the very same tiny thing you say about yourself? All the, "I AMs" that come out of our mouths are packed with the potential to show up in our lives exactly as they spring from our mouths. So, no: "I am so stupid"; "I can't get my hair to look right; or, "why do I even go in for this job interview, I can never express myself well under pressure" NO! Those are not the, "I AMs" that you want to spring from the depth of your soul. Instead, "I could have done that a different way", "

  RELAX INTO THE FLOW "A good diet, refraining from excessive desires, and daily meditation all lead to peace of mind, and this peace of mind is beneficial."     Little Book of Inner Peace,    --The Dalai Lama What happens when a person is caught in a rip current in the ocean? A lifeguard would tell you to swim parallel to the shore and that would break the hold of the current. When panic sets in it is sometimes very difficult to remember that idea of relaxing enough to swim parallel to the shore. Isn't that true about the challenges that we go through in life? We get caught in the idea of events becoming more than we can handle. When it occurs to us, that  Spirit surrounds us, moves in, through, and as us, we can remember to relax into that Divine Presence, and a shift happens. It allows us to respond, rather than react to the situation. There are many times that I have been so focused on the problem, that it takes me a little time to say, "God, I could use a litt

 ON THE WINGS OF DECEMBER “Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.” –Hamilton Wright Mabie Gary and I are back from Thanksgiving in New Mexico. This is a shot of all the people who sat around the dinner table, and then took an hour's worth of pictures (sound familiar?). Now comes the time to start getting ready for Christmas. I think the general public started getting ready for the season in October, whereas most normal families are getting ready right now. Since our place is small, we have a Christmas peacock on our patio. Indoors we have a thin but tall tree (pictures to follow in my next blog). We all have our traditions around the holidays, homemade stuffing, cornbread, cranberry sauce, yams, and some kind of meat or meatless protein (many more vegetarians than there used to be). As I go to buy groceries or shopping centers I wish people "HappyHolidays", acknowledging that we are a collective of beliefs; we may call Spirit by many
