”The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them.” Stephen King

I am so glad that I believe that my Higher Power is omniscient. Even though I think that prayer is an important part of my spiritual activities, I know my words and thoughts don’t always come out straight. I have faith that He hears my intentions correctly even when I don’t communicate them clearly. Love is another place where words just never seem to do justice. Even though I am a romantic, being inclined to write poetry or to share a special song that conveys my feelings for someone; these methods still do not always portray what I want to share. I am learning, however, that my deeds go a long way in furthering the message that I am trying to send. While it may be true that sometimes words are not enough, I have discovered that some very simple phrases at the right moments can speak volumes. “I love you.” “Please forgive me.” “I was wrong.” “I am sorry.” “God, please help me.” “God bless him/her.” When my thoughts, words, and actions are in harmony, they are more than enough.

Affirmation When I am in harmony with myself, it is easier for me to clearly express myself, openly and honestly, with those around me.
