Today I will..............

Today I will

01. Today I will not strike back
if someone is rude, if someone is impatient, if someone is unkind, I will not respond in a like manner.

02. Today I will ask God to bless my "Enemy"
If I come across someone who treats me harshly or unfairly, I will quietly ask God to bless that individual. I understand "enemy" could be a family member, neighbor, co-worker or stranger.

03. Today I will be careful about what I say...
I will carefully choose and guard my words being certain that I do not spread gossip.

04. Today I will go the extra mile...
I will find ways to help share the burden of another person.

05. Today I will forgive...
I will forgive any hurts or injuries that come my way.

06. Today I will do something nice for someone, but I will do it in secret...
I will reach out anonymously and bless the life of another.

07. Today I will treat others the way I wish to be treated...
I will practice the golden rule. "Do Unto others as I would have them do unto me"- with everyone I encounter.

08. Today I will raise the spirits of someone who is discouraged...
My smile, my words, my expression of support, can make the difference to someone who is wrestling with life.

09. Today I will nurture my body...
I will eat less... I will eat only healthy foods. I will thank God for my body.

10. Today I will grow spiritually...
I will spend a little more time in prayer today. I will begin reading something spiritual or inspirational; I will find a quiet place (at some point during this day) and listen to God's voice.
