April 2007     

The following text is often attributed to Nelson Mandela, but was actually written by Marianne Williamson.  As I have grown spiritually I have come to understand just how true her words are.  I think that it helps us all to acknowledge our doubts; our fears and in so doing forge forth with confidence that they can never hold us back from our true powerful essence.  God sees who we truly are, our angels see who we truly are…it is time for us to see who we truly are!  I invite you to view yourself in the light of the following text.  Think of the highest vision that you can imagine for YOU, and live it for a few moments.  Sit in the feelings of your power, of your beauty, of the wonder that you are. Upon awakening every day state to yourself ‘I am all living the highest vision of myself now…I am all powerful, all loving, all beautiful…I am a light of radiant inspiration for others.’ Each day try to extend the length of time that you spend with this vision until you are living it in each moment. I wish only blessings of love, and inspired thought of self for each and every one of you!

”Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?” Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
