I do not lack for anything.
Fear is always wrong - even if bad things happen, they will increase my knowledge and strength.
My life is mine to take care of. I can do it.
Spirit is always my ally.
No matter what, I am enough."
"The real spiritual work is to fill this lack yourself, which is a kind of circular process. The mind can be trained into self-love by being shown, over and over, that the higher Self is a safe haven of love and protection. The higher Self cannot protect you until you seek its security; this process begins when you devote time and energy to self-love. Self-love grows when you refuse to follow the impulses of anger and fear, trust that the universe is on your side, form your desires from the heart, and watch the high self carry them out, believe that you are enough in and of yourself, heed the tenderness and sweetness of your love for others, put your attention on positive energies in every situation, honor your own needs without having to seek outside approval, and cultivate the peace of inner silence." (p 216)
