“On The Law Of Receiving” by Mary Morrissey

The Law of Receiving is activated through the practice of giving.

That means through the pure pleasure of giving.

It is not activated by looking in your wallet and mumbling, “Well, what can I afford?”, but a giving that is in harmony with the life you want to lead.

The activation of the Law of Receiving in your life is very powerful.

I suggest an experiment in the regular practice of giving, just for 30 days, then just notice what’s happened in your receiving. My belief is that if you do this with a good heart, you will never look back.

Give with Your Whole Heart,

“The Divine Classroom” by Mary Morrissey

I love reading the poetry of Hafiz, the Persian poet in the 1300’s who in his poetry writes about having a love affair with life itself, right in the midst of our daily living.

He writes this one sweet little poem that I want to offer you today for consideration.

“We have all come to the right place. We all sit in God’s classroom. Now, the only thing left for us to do my dear, is to stop throwing spitballs for a while.”

What a wonderful thought! Here you are, and the curriculum of your daily life is perfect. The spit-balls are merely thoughts of, “I want this to be different.”

What if we could stop throwing spit-balls and start embracing, opening up to, and inviting the curriculum of love to have its way today? What a wonderful day you can create.

Enjoy the Classroom,

“Here and Now” by Mary Morrissey

We live in a world that keeps us very busy. Most people are not relaxed. There’s only one place to be relaxed, and that’s in the now.

If you are thinking about the past or the future, you won’t be as relaxed into the moment as you could be.

Try this: Be still. Take a deep breath. Feel your body relax. Feel your breath rising and falling.

Everything is here and now. Feel your forehead relax and your shoulders let go. You don’t have to carry the weight of anything today.

I’d like to invite you to walk in a peace that supports you and reminds you that you’re never alone. You are always companioned.

You are always guided. You can trust this. Let go into the here and now.

Enjoy the present,

Mary Morrissey

“Relax Into The Present” by Mary Morrissey

We live in a world that keeps us very busy. Most people are not relaxed. There’s only one place to be relaxed, and that’s in the now.

If you are thinking about the past, or the future, you won’t be as relaxed into the moment as you could be.

Try this: Feel your body relax. Feel your breath rising and falling. Everything is here and now. Just feel
your forehead relax and your shoulders let go. You don’t have to carry the weight of anything today.

I’d like to invite you to walk in a peace that supports you and reminds you that you’re never alone. You are always companion-ed.

You are always guided. You can trust this. You can let go into the here and now.

Enjoy the present,

“Expect & Prepare” by Mary Morrissey

When you start making preparations for what you want, it energizes the field of possibilities to come to you much faster. Instead of just rocking in a chair and waiting, you can prepare; you can start working.

If you were expecting 20 people to show up at your house for dinner tonight, your preparations would involve accommodating that number of guests. Ideally, you would start well in advance. The key is to do the same with your dreams!

You continually draw into life what you prepare for and expect. Many perceived failures take place because you have not forced your expectations to keep up pace with your desires.

Get a vivid picture of what you want to create, then focus on preparing and expecting!

Prepare now for the life you want,

“Play in the Waves!” by Mary Morrissey

Life truly is infinite. The good it offers you is without end.

The question is: What kind of vessel will you bring to life’s ocean? Will you bring a small pot to the infinite sea of life, and leave with just a little good? Will you bring a cracked pot, and complain that good always slips through your fingers? Or will you bring a well-hewn ship and sail out onto the sea, surrounding yourself with all the good and beauty there is?

No matter how big a container you bring, the good of life itself is always greater than you can imagine. Don’t limit yourself, and don’t limit life!

Play in the waves,

“There is No Failure!” by Mary Morrissey

There is really no such thing as failure.

Something may happen that you consider a failure, but you can develop a broader understanding that everything that happens can be used for the greater good.

From the proper perspective, what looks like failure can be useful information. In fact, the degree to which you fail (if you then implement what you have learned) conversely becomes the degree to which you can succeed.

There really are no mistakes!

Believing in You,

Mary Morrissey

“Create Expectations” by Mary Morrissey

You are operating in a life that has two components: the visible and the invisible. Just as there are physical laws, there are laws of mind and spirit.

If you’re wondering if this is true, just test it out. Put your mind in harmony with the good you seek, begin to expect it and notice that you will begin to experience ideas, opportunities will arise, and people will make suggestions that are in harmony with your desired good.

Have you ever decided to buy a blue car and all of a sudden you see blue cars everywhere? You attract by your interest and your desire, so when you set your desire, create an expectation that what you desire will appear.

Expect the Good,

Mary Morrissey

“Create Peace” by Mary Morrissey

When circumstances arise that are less than ideal, you’ll find your mind automatically gets very busy analyzing and stressing, and reviewing the problems. The teachers of Zen aptly call this “monkey mind.” The mind won’t sit still!

The first thing to do when you encounter a challenge is NOT to deal with your circumstances, however tempting that may be. Rather, deal with your inner experience. You want to do whatever it takes to come to a calm center.

First, create peace and calmness inside yourself. Once you have achieved this, what you will find is that the answers you need will automatically start to appear. This is because you are relaxed and open —and receptive to the solution.

First, create peace.

To mastering your inner experience,

“Create New Results” by Mary Morrissey

The mind is a funny thing. For many of us, maybe even for you, when you are ready to create greater success than you have ever known, your mind will dig into the past and tell you why it can’t happen.

When reaching for expanded joy, love, and success, your mind might show you pictures and tell you stories about the failures of your past. It wants to build a case for why it won’t happen now.

You might even find thoughts floating around which seem to tell you that thinking about your failures will protect you if your future ventures fail.

Push the pause button right there!

Here’s what to tell yourself when you catch that kind of thinking happening. Start by inserting the phrase, “Up until now…” Literally say to yourself —even out loud —that up until now those circumstances may have been the case, but starting now, you’re creating new results.

Starting now, you’re inviting a new experience of expanded freedom, love, happiness…whatever it is you are creating.

Watch as the old thinking disperses, making room for

expanded good in your life.

Enjoy the Process,

Mary Morrissey
