“Behind every fear, there is a miracle waiting.”

Forgiveness is the key to inner peace because it is the mental technique by which our thoughts are transformed from fear to love.

No matter what the problem, a miracle can solve it. Remember to ask for one.

May we not succumb to thoughts of violence and revenge today, but rather to thoughts of mercy and compassion. We are to love our enemies that they might be returned to their right minds.

Let’s forgive the past and who we were then. Let’s embrace the present and who we’re capable of becoming. Let’s surrender the future and watch miracles unfold.

Darkness is merely the absence of light, and fear is merely the absence of love. If we want to be rid of fear, we cannot fight it but must replace it with love.

The one good thing about failure is that it makes you consider doing things a different way.

In every heart there is an inner room, where we can hold our greatest treasures and our deepest pain.

To the ego mind, surrender means giving up. To the spiritual mind, surrender means giving in and receiving.

If our emotional stability is based on what other people do or do not do, then we have no stability. If our emotional stability is based on love that is changeless and unalterable, then we attain the stability of God.

It takes courage…to endure the sharp pains of self discovery rather than choose to take the dull pain of unconsciousness that would last the rest of our lives.

The meaningful question is never what we did yesterday, but what we have learned from it and are doing today.

Don’t be concerned that things appear to be falling apart: this has to happen in order for something new and wonderful to emerge.

Success means we go to sleep at night knowing that our talents and ablities were used in a way that served others.

Sometimes when we don’t know the answer, it’s time to simply be with the question.

Think of everything you’ve ever experienced that was painful; that’s the meaning of Good Friday. Think of all the ways that love ultimately healed your heart; that’s the meaning of Easter.

With every thought we think, we either summon or block a miracle. It is not our circumstances, then, but rather our thoughts about our circumstances, that determine our power to transform them.

When the fear of staying the same outweighs the fear of change, that is when we change

I like to feel the butterflies in the stomach, I like to go home and have a restless night and wonder how I’m going to be able to accomplish this feat, get jittery. That hunger and those butterflies in the stomach are very essential for all creative people.

Fear does not prevent death. It prevents life.

The only thing that scares me more than standing out is not standing out at all.

The warmth is spring is near. It smells of hope and cheer. The budding bulbs of daffodils will end the endless fear.

Oh! My beloved! fill the cup, that clears to-day of past regrets and future fears.

Charity puts and end to poverty; righteous conduct to misery; discretion to ignorance; and scrutiny to fear.

People are good. No matter what. Beneath the rage and fear lies a wounded heart. We must do what we can do to heal it.
