One of my teachers at Unity Village, the Rev. Tom
Thorpe, shared this sweet prayer with me years ago. It has become a trusted favorite of mine and I have shared it with dozens of others who have felt the comfort of these words.
God is here. So am I. And that's enough.
No matter your spiritual upbringing or background, these words say simply what is needed in a time of need. God is here.
God is right here with you in the moment that you are reading these words. God is right here in the essence of your breath. God is right here in the midst of your pain, fear, or confusion. God is here.
So am I.
I am here in this present moment. I am here with myself as I move through the challenges of life. I am present to my pain or fear. I am present to my joys and hopes. I am here.
And that's enough. How powerful is it to claim and know that where we are, God is! And if God is where we are, then all things are all right. Where God is, perfection reigns. Where God is, healing
is present. Where God is, peace comes. And all is well.
God is here. So am I. And that's enough.
Tonight before you sleep, repeat this powerful affirmation. In the morning
when you wake, repeat it again. Throughout your day, pause to reflect on the power and comfort of these words. Share them with a friend. Tape them to your computer or your mirror. Know that
God-Presence is always with you, wherever you are, whatever you are facing, no matter the need or circumstance -
God is here. So am I. And that's enough.
Namaste`
