On this day of your life

I believe God wants you to know...

...that all of life is animated by a single fantastic energy,

which is the essence of everything that is -- including you.

Isn't that amazing? Now, because this essence is who you are

and what you are made of, it can obviously never leave you.

Perhaps not so obviously, it can also be wonderfully helpful.

It can bring you peace in moments of stress,

strength in moments of weakness, 

courage in moments of fear,

wisdom in moments of confusion,

forgiveness in moments of anger,

and love in all the moments of your life. 

All you have to do is know that this is true,

and it will be true for you, right now.

I think that's terrific, don't you?
