 "Prayer for Protection"  by James Dillet Freeman
      The light of God surrounds us;  The love of God enfolds us;
      The power of God protects us; T he presence of God watches over us; 
            Wherever we are, God is!

"A decision must be made, in the recesses of your heart, between the known, which is stale but familiar, and the unknown, which is fresh, a field of infinite possibilities."
~ Deepak Chopra, The Way of the Wizard

"Spend time pondering not what you see, but why you see it." 
"Seekers are offered clues all the time from the world of spirit. Ordinary people call these clues conicidences." ~ Deepak Chopra, The Way of the Wizard

"In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid." Psalm 56:4
