The following is taken from Agape’s newsletter. It’s wonderfully inspiring for all of us…

Rev. Michael Beckwith says that when you talk about what you can’t afford you are actually blaspheming God. He says the only thing you can’t afford is the luxury of a negative thought! (You’ve probably heard it before, but it bears repeating.) Beyond that, there is nothing that you can’t afford.

Here’s what you can afford! You can afford to pay attention to the new ideas that are coming forth through and as your true nature. You can afford to live your life fully, joyfully and completely.

You can afford to be compassionate, patient, forgiving and caring.

You can afford to be gracious, understanding, kind and generous. That’s right.

This only appears to be a dog-eat-dog, might-makes-right, my-way-or-the-highway kind of world. In fact, or in truth, it’s not the ‘world’ you’re living in! You live in a Universe that is friendly and supportive. Don’t believe me?

Bring your attention back to the Presence and see how It attunes you to Its vibration.

See how your Universe opens up for giving and receiving. See how your experience becomes an adventure in opportunities where you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain and to give.

You can afford the energy to exercise, excel and express.

You can explore, exalt and expand your horizons by enrolling in one of the exhilarating classes offered by the Agape University of Transformational Studies and Leadership.

The Rev says that a lie believed acts as a law until it is neutralized.

You are not too poor to pay attention to that which is real.

Neutralize the negative by accentuating the positive.

Say, “I stand in the awareness of plenitude. Life is for me.

I evict the thought that anything can be against me!!

I accept the thought that everything is working together for my good now!!”

Now you’re talking! Watch how what you affirm and accept for yourself becomes your life experience.

Where God left off, is  with brilliance, greatness and more-than-enough-ness poised to express as you.

Accept only suggestions of truth. Then go forth and multiply the consciousness. Or, as Rev. Michael puts it, “Run tell that!”

If you’ve yet to experience Agape, learn about this fabulous place of inspiration and truth.

It might be just what you  need to stay focused on and connected to your Higher Power in this world.
