			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>       Begin the day by getting yourself in a consciousness of gratitude. There is a reason God is bringing a challenge to you. You can ask inside, “Help me to understand, Lord. What is it I am to learn?” Some days you just have to do the best you can. So say, “Thank you, Lord,” and choose to handle the situation as best you can with what you know and the conditions present.</p>
<p>       As you start the day, first surround and fill yourself with Light and love. You can do this as a prayer to God, an invocation of the Light, or through your creative imagination. Then, extend the Light into your day as you see yourself moving forward in the world. During the day, remember that the Light goes before you and prepares the way. All the things that come forward in your day, expected or unexpected, wanted or unwanted, are part of that Light action which is always present within you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Tom,</p>
<p>I would not be worthy if I let another day go by and not tell you how much I love having and reading: <em>&#8220;<a title="You Are the Blessings" href="http://www.amazon.com/You-Are-Blessings-Meditations-Reflections/dp/1893020460/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1213992020&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank">You Are The Blessings&#8221;</a></em> that you sent to me. I guess that I was waiting to write you and thank you when I finished the book.  But, now I realize that I will never be finished with it due to reading and re-reading it! It is now on my bed stand and I read it again and again.  All pages in the book are wonderful for me and I especially enjoy <a title="Mystical Traveler" href="http://www.msia.org/msia.qry?ID=8&amp;faqID=88" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Mystical Traveler</span> </a>and <a title="Peace" href="http://www.iiwp.org" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Peace</span></a> and <a title="Serving" href="http://www.msia.org/msia.qry?ID=71" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Serving</span></a>.   <a title="Spirit" href="http://www.msia.org/msia.qry?ID=24&amp;searchwords=spirit&amp;productID=1" target="_blank">Spirit</a> is a very important part for me (The Holy Ghost).  <a title="Trust" href="http://www.msia.org/msia.qry?ID=24&amp;searchwords=Trust&amp;productID=798" target="_blank">Trust</a> God.  He doesn&#8217;t always answer our prayers immediately, but, he hears all of our <a title="prayers" href="http://www.msia.org/msia.qry?ID=9" target="_blank">prayers</a>. (I know this to be true.)  I try to live as though He is with me at all times.  Always living to be in the world but not of it.  Pardon the personal testimony in this thank you note.  I just felt the urge to also tell you that I pray a lot, always thanking Him for my Blessings before I ask for what I want, need or desire.  I also ask Him to keep my loved ones free of all harm.</p>
<p>Thank you and with love in His eyes,</p>
<p>Shirley</p>
