BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, May 3rd, 2019 by Gloria Wendroff in HEAVENLETTERS

“When you wake in the morning, say to yourself: “God is looking out for me right now. God is always looking out for me.” During the day remember those words, and let them run through you. When you go to bed at night, rest in those words. Let them be the blanket that covers you. Let them tuck you in. Take those words and you will benefit from them more than any sleeping pill. The reminder that I have your best interest at heart is multi-vitamin – and mineral too.

When you go to bed at night, yes, remember that you are going to bed for more than sleep. You are going to bed to rest in My arms. What else can you do but that when you lay your head down at night? Those who have a hard time going to sleep may be fearing their thoughts, so substitute the ones I give you. The fear of what thoughts may come to you rests on the deeper fear of letting go of supposed control. Letting go of control is the same as resting in My arms. It is nothing more than that. Why would anyone be afraid or hesitate to rest in My arms of love? And remember that when you awake, you are still in the arms of love.”

Gloria Wendroff, in “Heavenletters”

“Do you really think that those thoughts that you think of as prayers actually get routed to a different place than all the others, as if they had been addressed like a letter? Well, if you do, that’s great – you are at least aware that you possess many very powerful attributes of the mind. Do you think that, in addition to answering all these prayers, God has time to sit around sorting your mail (thoughts) for you? Do you also believe that this mechanism only works in time of dire need? Where would these rules come from, anyway? “Ask and ye shall receive…” is not attached to a long list of conditions and restrictions – just try it and see.”

“To live consciously we need to reclaim and develop our awareness of how to live on the earth. Most of us need to learn to live more simply, without using up so many resources and creating so much waste. This does not mean that we need to live in poverty or suffer feelings of deprivation and scarcity. Quite the contrary! As we become more aware of our REAL needs – spirituality, mentally, emotionally and physically – and as we learn to truly fulfill these needs, we will find we have less need for much of the external stuff that we’re using to try to fill our emptiness.”

“Be grateful for every conceivable thing in your life. It does not matter what it is. What does matter is that you are grateful for absolutely everything. To get you over the hump of things happening in your Life that you would prefer to not have happening, understand this: in every single moment of your Life there is either a blessing or an opportunity. There is no third option. You either co-created the blessing or it’s an opportunity of some sort, most likely to grow in some way.”

“What an incredible world we have within each of us. We inhabit a world that replaces itself approximately every eleven months (except for the tiny hair-like neurons that send electrical impulses throughout the body.) – bones are replaced every 90 days; a new liver every 45 days; new skin every 30 days; the lining of the stomach every 5 days. Even the DNA, which contains enough information to fill 4,000 volumes the size of the Bible, changes every two months at the atomic level. We witness miracles every moment of the day, and we are rarely aware of their magnitude.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, April 26th, 2019 by Doris Roper in WAKE UP Your Life!

“Having nice things is nice. No question about that. But remember that “stuff” comes and goes, and getting too attached to the material goods in your life doesn’t make sense. One of the problems about clinging to material stuff is that the gratification wears off. The new car gets a dent, the designer suit loses a button, and the luxury cruise comes and goes. The only way to get that fleeting feeling again is to get more stuff, which means spending more money. And in the tradition of addictions, in order to get the same high from the stuff you acquire, you need to up the ante every time – fancier car, bigger house, more exclusive clothes.

At the end of the day, though, you’re more likely to be surrounded by stuff as you float in a sea of debt. Not really the most satisfying life. I have come to realize that the reason we grow tired or bored of material things is because they are not living, giving objects. We love them at first, but because they cannot love us back, there is nothing to sustain our interest. There really is more to life than more stuff, bigger stuff, and better stuff. When you can let go of things and enjoy life regardless of its contents, you will be much happier and much more able to deal with anything that comes your way.”

“You make too many demands. That is the same as to say that you try to take control. Any personal control you take is too much. You even control you letting go of control. You order its release, but you order it only so far. You still keep your eye on it. Your attention is more on control than it is on being. You cannot be into your beingness and control at the same time.

You order outcomes. Ordering a particular outcome denies you others. Control is holding on to your desire rather than allow it to fulfill itself. You do not have to order the dawn of the day. The sun comes without your control. You do not order the rose to bloom. It blooms from its own bloomability.

The most beautiful things are those that you do not try to control, or even imagine to control. The most beautiful events happen as if on their own. Love comes on its own. It bids itself to come. I have set everything in motion, and you must allow it to be what it is and reach where it will.”

“I often use a flashlight to demonstrate a point about focusing on your problems. I’ll shine the light on the floor, in a narrow beam, casting a small circle on the floor. I tell the client to look at the spot of light, and that the spot represents their problem. Now, keep your eyes focused on that spot of light, and tell me if you see the answer to your problem, or if you still just see the spot of light that represents the problem. In a dark room, the message is even more dramatic. There could be answers lying all over the floor, but if you don’t shift your focus away from the problem, you may never see one of them.”

“When we believe that it takes a long time to get a new career, a different house, or a better relationship, it does take a long time. But when we believe it’s possible for changes to instantly occur, then they do! The bottom line is this: Whatever you believe about time – that you have plenty, or that you don’t have enough – you are correct! There are no limits to the changes you can make in your life, and there are no time shortages except those that are self-imposed.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, April 22nd, 2019 by Stuart Wilde in INFINITE SELF

“You are an infinite energy inside a body; the things you have around you are not really yours. They are material manifestations of an infinite abundance. So your car, your house, your clothes, are all on rental from the God Force. None of them is yours. When you depart this earth plane, you’re going to have to leave them behind.

By placing a lot of emotion into having, you heighten not having, because you limit by definition what you do have. So, everything else in the world falls into the “I don’t have that” category.

You come to the earth plane as energy. You’ve got a body to operate in, and you’re generating money to sustain that body, but that is different from generating money for security. There isn’t enough money in the world to make the ego completely secure. That’s why millionaires pound on relentlessly, often losing what they already have in the chase for more. It’s partly a power trip and partly a security trip.”

“As appealing as forgiveness is in theory, it is an extremely unattractive personal action for most people, mainly because the true nature of forgiveness remains misunderstood. Forgiveness is not the same as telling the person who harmed you, “It’s okay,” which is more or less the way most people view it. Rather, forgiveness is a complex act of consciousness, one that liberates the psyche and soul from the need for personal vengeance and the perception of oneself as a victim. More than releasing from blame the people who caused our wounds, forgiveness means releasing the control that the perception of victimhood has over our psyches.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, April 18th, 2019 by Rhonda Byrne in THE SECRET

“No one can tell you whether you are feeling good or bad, because you are the only one who knows how you’re feeling at any time. If you’re not sure how you’re feeling, just ask yourself, “How am I feeling?” You can stop and ask this question often during the day, and as you do you will become more aware of how you’re feeling.

The most important thing for you to know is that it is impossible to feel bad and at the same time be having good thoughts. That would defy the law, because your thoughts cause your feelings. If you are feeling bad, it is because you are thinking thoughts that are making you feel bad.

Your thoughts determine your frequency, and your feelings tell you immediately what frequency you are on. When you are feeling bad, you are on the frequency of drawing more bad things. The law of attraction must respond by broadcasting back to you more pictures of bad things and things that will make you feel bad. As you feel bad, and don’t make any effort to change your thoughts and feel better, you are in effect saying, “Bring me more circumstances that will make me feel bad. Bring
it on!”

“When you feel angry, no matter how justified, you have chosen anger. You have abetted it. You say you want peace, yet who is it who has chosen anger? Did someone force you?

You feel that rights of yours have been infringed upon. And yet, when you feel angry, you have given up your right to peace. When you have been underestimated, and someone else’s opinion of themselves flaunted, you become a bull who sees a red cape. That is another way of saying you become unseeing. No one has more rights than you. No matter what another’s assumed position in life may be, no matter where they put you in their estimation, they do not have the say over you.

When you become angry, you must think they do. When you take affront, you have conceded something that was not yours to concede. Your worth is not negotiable. No one makes your worth more or less except as you accept their estimation of you. You, who disagree so vehemently with their appraisal, apparently agree that their appraisal means something, and so you dispute it.

When you feel lowered in someone’s estimation, it must be that you are listening more to someone else than you are listening to Me.”

“Our beliefs are programmed into us from birth. Everything that we experience becomes a permanent part of us and we use these experiences to build a sort of database with which we judge subsequent experiences. We are told about God and, depending on what we were told, we either believe in Him or not. If we were told there was no God, for instance, we would believe that until we had an experience that convinced us otherwise, or until we had acquired enough knowledge to form some contrary opinion based on what we have come to know and believe. These beliefs become who we are and control everything we do and experience. They are basically the computer programs that are loaded into, and control, our autopilot system, or subconscious.

When we aren’t consciously acting on some thought, our subconscious is driving the car for us, in a manner of speaking. Our beliefs tell our subconscious mind how, and where, we want to be “driven;” and they operate our control systems according to those parameters. If you believe you will never amount to anything in this life, then even when you aren’t actively doing anything in particular, your subconscious is making arrangements to help you never amount to anything. You have to take an active role in programming your beliefs instead of simply accepting beliefs from someone else; you never know what those beliefs will lead to. Why not believe in something you truly want?”

“Each of us is given one gift – a special strength or talent – and it is our task to discover and cultivate it. Take stock of your potential strengths. If you are not sure, ask friends or loved ones; they often see what remains hidden to us. We share common human weaknesses, but it is our unique talents that make us special.

The late “Peanuts” cartoonist Charles Schultz claimed that he wasn’t much good at anything as a youth – but he liked to draw cartoons. This doesn’t mean it was easy – his first cartoons were rejected before he found success. So remember that everything is difficult until it becomes easy. And follow your interests, because interests can ignite into passions, and passions become strengths. Charles Schultz played to his strength, on which he built an empire and a life.”
