Use affirmations when feeling doubtful or possibly afraid

Instead of allowing my concerns to grow and fester. There are some things I wish to speak up about and am going round and round wondering how they’ll be received…

Affirmation-
I will say what comes to my heart with love and kindness.

To all the children who experience the struggle of dealing with parents who argue and fght in front of them. May their hearts receive healing and feel God’s love within them. As they grow and mature, may they choose relationships that restore their soul.

I’m not exactly sure why, my Mom stated something about her needing a place to stay. She’s young with 4 kids and an abusive boyfriend. We’ve talked about this. In fact, I saw her in the city county bldg about 6 months ago, filing a PPO. I’ll return her call today. In the meantime, I’m believing Angie experiences inner peace, clear direction, and moves to start a life path of freedom and as much joy as she can stand.

We work together to form and maintain a loving, open, and understanding atmosphere…or else! ;)

On my way out of the parking lot, my rear brake on the drivers side locked, a student says, “Your back tire isn’t spinning” so my car screeched rubber as I drove it to the closest spot across the street from my school. AAA sent a flatbed tow truck and I got home 1 1/2 hours late. My car is in the driveway and I don’t want to miss work tomorrow.

I’m thinking about getting a ride with a co-worker who passes my house in the morning, then dropping the car off after I get back home. Then another part of me says to take care of it ASAP, who wants to risk being stranded over the weekend- or paying to rent a car? I guess I better take off. I feel guilty though. I missed a lot of work last month when Grandma passed.

I just want to take a long hot bath and lay down. I could really use a hug and a back rub about now~

I know that our family will come together in unity and support as we gather for grandma’s funeral tomorrow. We love one another and express it with our words and actions. We think with our hearts, reach out in love, and speak with gentleness and compassion.

i’ve lately adding affirmations into my life. they work wonders! a favorite is “i approve of myself”. just saying it over and over helps immensely. good luck!

Jon is now in tune to the still small voice that directs him to his best life. He is on a path of peace, joy, and purpose. He is motivated to act in love.

She was standing in line as I walked into the bookstore. We hugged and exchanged info. about our kids. I expressed some concern about Jon- she remembered when I had similar concerns before (when he was younger, not doing what I wanted him to do) I acknowledge that I have control issues that I am ready to get over ;)

She talked to me about using affirmations, which was the 2nd time I’d heard it today. One of the ministers talked about it as well.

I remember when I was going through my divorce, which was nasty at times. In fact, it was one of the worst experiences of my life. I was scared because of some things that were happening- and she gave me some affirmations she used when facing the same problems. (Which made me think of Loupita’s entry yesterday.)

She helped me to remember the hope and help that are always available. Especially when I try to figure things out on my own and get caught up in a tail-spin. Cheers to Nurse Rikard!
