First BE, Then Have

Your Daily Affirmation for Friday, July 9, 2010:

"God has given me the power to initiate the experiences of my life. Today I accept full responsibility for my life, knowing that when I become that which my heart desires, I open wide the channels through which it can come into my experience. What a wonderful life!"




Today's affirmation was inspired by a saying my Mom taught me. Mom has a saying for every ocassion. It goes like this: 'I went outside to find a friend and could not find one there. I went outside to be a friend and friends were everywhere.' Simple, but profound, these are surely words that hold some real valuable insight for those of us who desire to live the "good life" that is possible for each of us. The message in the rhyme is that I have to take the initiative and be the initiator first, in order to see, have, receive and experience the good I seek. Whether it's friends, love, gifts, health. The first move is yours. What moves will you make today?



Wishing you peace, joy, health, wisdom, love, acceptance and all manner of prosperity!

First BE, Then Have.

Blessings,


Barry Johnson
