It is in solitude that you will realize that you are really never alone.

We have this soul within us that shines bright and is different and unique…so very distinct from all others. We have a destiny to fulfill that is beautiful, good an eternal.

We should learn to look at ourselves with the same delight, joy and satisfaction with which God sees us in every moment. That would be amazing, wouldn’t it? Imagine how great the world would be if we all did this.

Because He is within us. So we are never alone, you see.

Nothing, including the brightest days to the darkest days, can separate us from His love.

Wouldn’t it be great if we all looked at ourselves with such love and went through each day looking for our blessings in each moment? If we responded to everything that happens to us with gratitude and acceptance?

The dark times wouldn’t seem so dark. We would realize that they are temporary and that there is good happening, even when we can’t readily see it.

The light times would be so much brighter.

My prayer for you today is one of my favorites. It is called, “The Deer’s Cry”

I arise today
Through God’s strength to direct me,
God’s might to hold me,
God’s wisdom to guide me,
God’s eye to look before,
God’s ear to hear me,
God’s word to speak to me,
God’s hand to guard me,
God’s way to lie before me,
God’s shield to protect me,
God’s host to save me from snares of devils
From temptation of vices,
From everyone who shall wish me ill,
Afar and anear,
Alone and in multitude.
