“You must go into the dark in order to bring forth your light.”

The unmet need that can get met right now is the need to be whole, to be both your magnificent, divine self and your imperfect, human self.

When you trust the universe, you get to play in the magical world of God’s plan.

When you are grounded in the present – feeling your feelings, listening to your body, tasting your food, and expressing your ideas – you do not build up toxicity. You digest your experience as you go.

Become aware of your negative expectations and practice replacing them with positive expectations.

Love is the answer, the spiritual solution that holds the power to end the war that rages within each of us.

Heaven is the experience of being completely present to all that is, all that you are, and all that you have to give. Are you choosing to live in heaven or suffer in hell?

I grew up very insecure. From the time I was little I used to hide under my mother’s dress.

Truth is the key to unlocking the door to divine confidence. This is a truth that can be felt only when you get out of your head and into your heart. When you’re blind to this truth, you’re left to the limited power of your human will.

All real change requires risk. You must take risks every day of your life. You must get up each morning and ask…: What can I do that is different?

A wise person once wrote, “Resentment is like drinking poison and hoping the other person would die.” But the only one dying is ourselves.

It’s not our job to assess the merit of our vision or judge its importance. It is our job to receive the vision and act upon it.

To ignite your confidence and reclaim your courage, you must step into the highest vision of who you are. The only way to do this is to make the journey back into the arms of the Divine.

Standing in our power demands that we be vulnerable, listen to our own voice, and take risks outside the comfort of what we know.

If we want a new future that does not look like our past, we must make new choices in the present.

Live in the knowledge that you are a gift to the world.

To experience emotional freedom, we must accept, surrender, and let go of our wounds. We must be willing to take responsibility for what we’re holding on to, which is usually a hurt or pain from the past that leaves us feeling victimized.

Deep in the heart of the infinite darkness, a tiny blue marble is spinning through space. Born in the splendor of God’s holy vision, and sliding away like a tear down his face.

While looking for the light, you may suddenly be devoured by the darkness and find the true light.

They’re powerful, those songs. At times they’ve been my only way back, the only door out of the dark, bad places the black dog calls home.

The old church tower and garden wall Are black with autumn rain And dreary winds foreboding call The darkness down again.

What other dungeon is so dark as one’s own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one’s self!

The great empire will be torn from limb, the all-powerful one for more than four-hundred years: Great power given to the dark one from slaves come.

God made night, But man made darkness.

It’s her black wings that make her beautiful.
