Ending The Day In The Presence Of God (Part 2)
Inspite of the fact that the Supreme Soul already knows whatever I have done right
through the day on a physical as well as on a non-physical level; there is immense
benefit in meditating for a few minutes, before going to bed at night. It is wise
that before I sleep, I have a face-to-face meeting with the Supreme and I become
a child, become humble, and put my entire day with obedience, transparency, loyalty
and love; before the Supreme. In this stage of transparency, I definitely
receive a response from God, which may be in the form of a thought vibration immediately
or as soon as I get up from sleep or through some other medium the next day, when
I read something positive the next morning or may be in the form of a loved one
at home or even a friend or colleague at office, who may become instruments used
by the Supreme to communicate with me. The Supreme Being has His ways of responding
to your act of honesty and love of sharing the day’s happenings with Him.
He is the Ocean of Truth and His response will be one which is filled with the light
of truth or wisdom which I make use of, to illuminate the path or road of my life.
Using this light, I'll find I am helped to see clearly where there has been progress,
and where I failed, with accurate judgment, so that I learn. God, the Supreme Companion
or Friend or Beloved is with me, wanting to lead me to my destination of perfection.
I want to fulfill my side of the relationship with Him, so His light will help me
recognize where I must change, and what I must do to make corrections to any damage
for which I have been responsible. Where my actions have been positive and right,
the subtle blessings of ‘well done child’ that I receive from Him, will make me
aware that the strength behind these actions came from my relationship with the
Him – He is permanently and was my back-bone right through the day. Then there will
be neither worry (due to mistakes committed by me) nor laziness or complacency (due
to positive actions done by me), but only love and contentment in my dreams. If
I do not surrender the day’s happenings to Him in this way, although He loves me
and is concerned for me, He might and will most probably remain detached and not
guide me in any way.

Message for the day 17-03-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
Success means to have positive thoughts which bring right actions in our life.
Projection: When things go wrong we usually find ourselves flooded with negative
thoughts. We, no longer can think right and so our actions go wrong, too. We try
to correct our actions but we cannot succeed in it and so we give up.
Solution: We need to change the way we think before we can think of changing
our actions. Success comes in the ability to maintain positive thoughts even in
the most negative situations. For this, we need the practice of maintaining positive
thoughts under all circumstances.
