A Teaspoon Of Spiritual Nourishment

****A special New Years meditation and prayer for you.
****From, Tom & Mary:



****Today we stand on the threshold of a New Year, and if you’re like me you’ll be making out a list of
****resolutions. But keep in mind that... 'what you expect in the New Year' ... may be far more critical
***than what you resolve.

****Expectation is one of the most powerful, creative forces in the world. My dictionary says that expect
****means to consider a thing probable or certain. When we do that deep within our minds and hearts,
****it*has a transforming effect upon our lives. It is based on a sound principle... an internalized
****expectation becomes an externalized motivation. This simply means all the faculties of our mind,
****our thinking, our feeling, our believing, will create conditions that tend to make whatever we expect
****a reality. If I expect the worst I will immobilize my abilities and set up the patterns around me that  
****produce the worst. But if I hold positive expectations, I will generate energies and potencies the will
****help bring them about.This New Year’s Eve, I hope you’ll join Mary and I in creating not just
****resolutions, but expectations. Great expectations! Stretched before us are three hundred and sixty-
****five days. God is **the source and fulfiller **of them all. With Him and faith-filled expectations
****planted in our lives, this year can be our most wondrous adventure yet!



****Mary and I finish our after-breakfast prayer session,
****by saying this wonderful prayer. It encompasses all of the above.
This Is Possibly The Most Important Meditation You Will Read  This Year
Expectations Are a Powerful Force:

**************************
I have a strong serene feeling that God is planning
something good for us today. I cannot explain it,
but I have this deep feeling that he has something
wonderful in store for us. I am expecting God to
surprise us with his tender mercy. He will turn our
hurts into halos, and He is guiding our life in such a
way that whatever happens to us today will prove
to be a blessing. Thank you, Lord, Amen.
