Thursday, August 17th

Commit yourself and all those you love to the care and protection of your Heavenly Father and all will be well. Have faith and confidence as you continually do this, that the protection of the Most High will be upon you and on all for whom you pray, and the light of Our Holy Spirit will illuminate and guide. So let go all anxiety, receiving with joy and thanksgiving all that comes to you daily.

You will not be in any doubt, however, that pain will be mingled with the joy, for that is the inevitable way for the children of the Kingdom. But pain and sorrow, rightly accepted and borne, are the birth pangs of the life in the spirit and of the salvation of the whole creation

Receive today as it has been prepared for you and as you have prepared for it. Know that it is well and all will be well. Relax into joy and happy anticipation. Whatever goes contrary for you or for others accept as opportunities to strengthen your resistance to contrary forces. Let Our peace be with you and flow, through you, to others.
