God in Me

God in me is my light and my understanding.

In order to grow in spiritual understanding, I must first realize that I have the capacity for it. I am a manifestation of God, and in God's likeness, I am all-wise and all-knowing.

To believe in the presence of God as Divine Mind in me is to identify myself with all light and knowledge.

Beginning today, I rise out of the belief that by nature I am limited in understanding. At all times, I think of myself as capable of knowing all truth. I learn to rely upon the light of God within to make clear whatever I desire to know.

Dear God,

We accept Your gift of the present.

We accept our divine appointment and come, with open minds and outstretched hearts.

We accept a quickening of our awareness of Your presence.

We accept the love that flows from Your heart through and between our hearts.

So it is.
