TODAY I WILL NOT STRIKE BACK…
If someone is rude, if someone is impatient, if someone is unkind, I will not respond in a like manner.
TODAY I WILL ASK GOD TO BLESS MY ‘ENEMY’…
If I come across someone who treats me harshly or unfairly, I will quietly ask God to bless that individual. I understand “enemy” could be a family member, neighbor, co-worker or stranger.
TODAY I WILL BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT I SAY…
I will carefully choose and guard my words being certain that I do not spread gossip.
TODAY I WILL GO THE EXTRA MILE…
I will find ways to help share the burden of another person.
TODAY I WILL FORGIVE…
I will forgive any hurts or injuries that come my way.
TODAY I WILL DO SOMETHING NICE FOR SOMEONE, BUT I WILL DO IT IN SECRET…
I will reach out anonymously and bless the life of another.
TODAY I WILL TREAT OTHERS THE WAY I WISH TO BE TREATED…
I will practice the golden rule. “Do unto others as I would have them do unto me” – with EVERYONE I encounter.
TODAY I WILL RAISE THE SPIRITS OF SOMEONE WHO IS DISCOURAGED…
My smile, my words, my expression of support, can make the difference to someone who is wrestling with life.
TODAY I WILL NURTURE MY BODY…
I will eat only healthy foods. I will thank God for my body.
TODAY I WILL GROW SPIRITUALLY…
I will spend more time in prayer today. I will begin reading something spiritual or inspirational; I will find a quiet place (at some point during this day) and listen to God’s voice.
