A Prayer for Equanimity
by Marilyn O’Leary, RScP
Because God is All, because Spirit infuses the Universe with Power, Creativity, Love, Peace, Joy, I know I am one with It, and all who read this are one with It.
Being one with Spirit, I am blessed. The Power of Spirit is available to me. Despite the news of the world, I am at peace. I know that, just like me and you, there are millions of people of goodwill who come together at this time, regardless of religion and belief, to greet the sun as it gets ready to return its warmth to the Earth. I know that despite the appearance of darkness, light is beginning its journey among us. The quietness of winter comes just at the time that the sun makes its journey back to us in this hemisphere. The lesson of this time is that appearance can mislead us and it is important to remember that Spirit is here.
Because of this understanding, I am at peace, knowing that Spirit guides my way. I experience the Peace that passeth all understanding, and know it is Spirit in me.
And so I give thanks for my life in Spirit, for the teachings of Ernest Holmes that light the way, for the openness of my heart and mind to love and peace. I release these words to the Universe, knowing they come back to me fulfilled. And so it is.
