BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, April 10th, 2019 by Doris Roper in WAKE UP Your Life!

“This is what I have learned about the people around us: Whenever somebody triggers something in you, pushes a button, causes an unpleasant sensation for you, do not look at that person. Look at yourself. Ask yourself, “What is it in me that is making me react this way?”

Your reaction is alwaysabout something in you. Think about it — when you are feeling good about yourself, confident, centered, other people cannot affect you. You can tolerate them because you look at them with love and as fellow humans. If they push your buttons, there is something in you that is off-kilter, unexamined, or unresolved.”

Doris Roper, in “WAKE UP Your Life!”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, April 9th, 2019 by Gloria Wendroff in HEAVENLETTERS

“You do not know the worth of a spot of dust on a table. You do not know what purpose it may serve in the universe. Your major fault, if fault there be, is to fault others.

So what if they are not like you? Should the world be hosted with your perfection alone? Something would be missing if all in the world had your personality. More than fault would be missing. You might wonder why there was sameness everywhere with nothing to break it up.

So right now be overjoyed for the variety of imperfection that the world is made of. Be glad for the opposites of you. Be glad for all those who are less perfect than you, for they occupy a different place in the world. Perhaps their place is to point out to you that you need to resolve something within yourself. Perhaps they are a clue inserted just for you.”

Gloria Wendroff, in “Heavenletters”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, April 8th, 2019 by Eckhart Tolle in A NEW EARTH

“So the most important thing to realize is this: Your life has an inner purpose and an outer purpose. Inner purpose concerns Being and is primary. Outer purpose concerns doing and is secondary…Your inner purpose is to awaken. It is as simple as that.

You share that purpose with every other person on the planet – because it is the purpose of humanity. Your inner purpose is an essential part of the purpose of the whole universe and its emerging intelligence. Your outer purpose can change over time. It varies greatly from person to person. Finding and living in alignment with the inner purpose is the foundation for fulfilling your outer purpose. It is the basis for true success. Without that alignment, you can still achieve certain things through effort, struggle, determination, and sheer hard work or cunning. But there is no joy in such endeavor, and it invariably ends in some form of suffering.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, April 5th, 2019 by Stuart Wilde in THE QUICKENING

“All your needs will be met. However, difficulty arises in the timing. If one looks at nature one can see that it is abundant, but we also learn that it only delivers from time to time. You plant in the Spring and nothing happens until August. The same often occurs with personal finances. You put out a lot of energy and you have to wait for it to pay a dividend. We expect the abundance of the universe to pay out in little chunks at regular intervals, to fit the patterns we have obligated ourselves to. Often it doesn’t.

Your best move is never to obligate yourself when you don’t have to and to try to win as much freedom within your obligations as possible. Otherwise the negative emotion that occurs from that obligation is not worth whatever it is that you got.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, April 4th, 2019 by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer in REAL MAGIC

“When you say to yourself, “I don’t have enough money,” or, “I don’t have enough education, talent, or strength to experience prosperity,” you are operating in your mental world from a position of lack. Hence, you are unable to go into the world of real magic.

To overcome this way of thinking, you will have to reeducate, or better yet, de-hypnotize yourself from the lie that has been foisted upon you by every strand of our Western culture. Everything that you need, you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, April 3rd, 2019 by Marianne Williamson in ILLUMINATA

“The opening of the heart is an awesome personal politic, providing us with an internal strength greater than any worldly power. As we receive God’s love and impart it to others, we are given the power to repair the world. As we give up our collective enslavement to the dictates of Western materialism, we relinquish the increasingly primitive belief that the world outside remains unaffected by our thoughts.

We have begun to recognize that our individual minds create our collective realities, and we are ready to take responsibility for the world by taking more seriously our individual contributions to it. Personal transformation can and does have global effects. As we go, so goes the world, for the world IS us. The revolution that will save the world is ultimately a personal one.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, April 2nd, 2019 by Chérie Carter-Scott, Ph.D. in IF LIFE IS A GAME THESE ARE THE RULES

“To respect your body is to hold it in high regard and honor it. Respect is treating your body with the same care you would give any other valuable and irreplaceable object. Learning to respect your body is vital. When you respect your body, you are in partnership with it. You become grounded in your physical body and able to benefit from all it has to offer you. Respect carries reciprocal energy. Your body will honor you when you honor it. Treat your body as a structure worthy of respect and it will respond in kind. Abuse it or ignore it and it will break down in various ways until you learn the lesson of respect.”

“You will find a message in your life today. You will stumble upon it. It will find its way to you. It is marked for you. Be alert to a message today. You do not know from where it will come, but today a message will arrive, and you must reach it. It comes to you, but you must reach out to receive it and then listen to it, for it has something important to say to you.

There is much you do not yet know, but a huge impulse is on its way to you and will create a great wave in your life. Be not daunted. Welcome it. This is the message you have been waiting for…You wonder how this can be true for everyone who reads this message. Do not waste your breath on such wondering. Wonder about the grander scale. Wonder about what is, not how it can be.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, March 29th, 2019 by Pete Koerner in THE BELIEF FORMULA

“Prayer is the key to unlocking the power within each of us. Everyone prays, in one way or another, because everyone thinks. Some part of each of us believes that we can simply ask for what we need and it will be given unto us. If we could simply unite that part of us with the rest of us, we might then be able to find more effective means of prayer. I am not simply suggesting that we will find more elaborate poems and praises, but prayer techniques that actually bring about definitive and rapid results or answers.

This power within us is not imaginary, nor is it unreliable like a car that may or may not start when it is cold outside. This power is always there and is only limited by the amount of energy that you put into it and the amount of belief you possess. I am indeed saying that if you truly believe, and truly understand the mechanism with which you pray, you will better understand the entire process of prayers, and the manifestation of the answers to those prayers. You will also find that you are praying more effectively, realizing tangible results much more quickly and profoundly than ever before, and seeing the miracles of God everywhere you turn. Prayer works in a very real sense.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, March 28th, 2019 by Don Miguel Ruiz in THE FOUR AGREEMENTS COMPANION BOOK

“When we understand that evil is nothing but a disease of the human mind, we understand why human societies are the way they are, why there is all the injustice, violence, and war. We have ingested Parasites in the form of beliefs, in the form of concepts, in the form of distorted images. All of the personal drama that we experience – all the emotions that burn us up, that lead us into self-destruction, into addictions, into lies, into dogmas and fanaticism – are the result of our beliefs, the result of a program.

If we can see that we get sick by eating knowledge, then using logic, how can we heal ourselves? What happens when we eat food that is contaminated and we don’t feel well? If we throw up and get rid of the poison, we are going to feel better. Well, if we get rid of the knowledge that harms us, guess who goes out with that knowledge? Once we take the Parasite out of the mind, the mind will heal and will function much better.”

“You are receiving messages from Me day and night. I am ever sending you messages. And they reach you. That is My part. Now it is yours to open them. Often you do not even notice their arrival, so how can you open them? You left them piled up outside your door like newspapers. Pick up My messages. They are for you. And they are good news for you.

The headlines read: GOD WANTS YOU. But you think, Oh-oh, what does He want me for? But My messages are nothing for you to fear. You are guilty of nothing. You fear you are guilty of something, and that you have a tongue-lashing or worse coming. No, you have love coming.

With our without your awareness of My messages waiting for you, you fear that there is some doom trying to catch up to you. What is the contrary of doom? I think it is good fortune, love, your desires’ answers coming to you…God has love letters for you. What do you think this is that you are reading right now?”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, March 26th, 2019 by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer in YOUR SACRED SELF

“If you were raised on blame, it is a habit for you to reach for this excuse whenever you wish to explain why something is not working in your life. The alternative to blame is self-responsibility – becoming an inner-directed person. You may not have been taught to consider taking responsibility for the events in your life. But if you are unwilling to discontinue the blame game, you will be unable to initiate your sacred quest.

When you blame something outside of yourself for the circumstances you are experiencing, you give control of your life to that outer phenomenon. The key to you is always within. When you let go of blaming others and search within for your key, you will always find what you need. Instead of blame, you can choose to know that all of the events and people who have shown up in your life have had a divine role.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, March 25th, 2019 by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale in THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING

“To change your circumstances, first start thinking differently. Do not passively accept unsatisfactory circumstances, but form a picture in your mind of circumstances as they should be. Hold that picture, develop it firmly in all details, believe in it, pray about it, work at it, and you can actualize it according to that mental image emphasized in your positive thinking.

This is one of the greatest laws in the universe. Fervently do I wish I had discovered it as a very young man. It dawned on me much later in life and I have found it to be one of the greatest, if not my greatest discovery, outside of my relationship to God. And in a deep sense this law is a factor in one’s relationship with God because it channels God’s power into personality.”

“The ego knows that its world-view is an illusion that has been created around its emotional reaction to the events and people in its environment. Perhaps we grew up poor or rich. Perhaps someone said we were stupid or ugly, smart or pretty. It doesn’t matter. The ego has accepted and agreed with such ideas as truth and made them part of its belief system. Therefore, we have become subject to that.

We are not subject to anything; we should not believe anything our ego tells us is true. Ego is a false self. Learn to listen. We are not our egos. We are THAT which we were when we were born, before ego. We are the True and Eternal Godhead!”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, March 21st, 2019 by Neale Donald Walsch in ABUNDANCE AND RIGHT LIVELIHOOD

“I learned a great lesson from an extraordinary woman many years ago. Her name was Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, and I came to know her personally. And one day Elisabeth and I were driving down the road together, and I said that I really wanted to do something, but it would require me to quit my job in order to do it, and I didn’t think that I could that for a lot of reasons, not the least of which there were many other people depending on me to be where I was.

Elisabeth looked at me quite calmly, and, in her heavy Swiss accent, said to me, blinking very slowly, “I see, and what vould all dees people do, do you sink, if you simply died tomorrow?” I said, “Well, that’s an unfair question, because I’m probably not going to die tomorrow.” And she looked at me, and she said, “No, you’re dying right now.”
