When we are afraid, we can find comfort through prayer and meditation by letting our restless thoughts settle. When the mind becomes calm, the essence of our existence comes into our awareness and says: “I am with you always, even to the end of the earth.” This essence is a quality of our own divine nature revealed to us.

Grief is like an ocean wave that sweeps over the ego taking everything away with it. If we let go into it with awareness, without trying to resist or control life, it can take us into the depths of our being where what remains, the true Self, is revealed.

Turning to God with the expectation that it will improve a human condition signifies a conflicted mind, straddling the viewpoints of duality and wholeness. Turn to God and accept healing now.

Worry stirs up the mind and blocks our access to inner peace and, ultimately, right action. When worry arises, acknowledge the concern and then bring forth the self-care that will restore balance and inner peace.
