The phrase “I am” is declarative—it signifies our eternal existence as spiritual beings. Use the phrase affirmatively to evoke innate divine qualities and strengths. Be conscious of what you say you are.

Each of us must have a point of divine reference to walk in faith, to not sink down under the heavy burdens of the world’s sorrows. See them for what they are, boisterous storms that howl one day and clear the next. With God as our constant companion, we can walk in confidence through the wildest storms of all.

Look beyond changing conditions to the unchanging heart of Reality. Within you is the help that never fails. Within you is the strength that will allow you to walk in confidence. Take one step at a time, knowing that the next step will be divinely directed.

When the mind is overcome with restlessness, it is common to think that we do not have enough time to meditate. From the perspective of the restless mind, this seems true. This thought is a sure sign that we have become too involved in outer activity.
