Toute la force dont nous avons besoin est à notre disposition

 All The Strength We Need Is Ours, nous dit Yogananda. I can feel that daily.

Je le vérifie chaque jour. Tout ce que je cherche, tout ce dont je peux avoir besoin est là. Et c'est ce qui me donne la force nécessaire pour dépasser les ombres qui ne manquent pas de poindre sur le chemin. En espérant aider les autres à le ressentir aussi. Les enseignements ne suffisent pas ; il nous faut les expérimenter , les appliquer, et finir par incarner ce que l'on croit savoir .Bonne journée, les Âmis, ne gâchez pas les merveilles que vous êtes, si uniques, si précieux. Des âmes lumineuses sur pattes de guinguois !

I want to begin with a bold but true statement: you and I would not exist if a dynamic power, force, or strength were not already at work within us. It takes strength to power our DNA, to cause our cells to function in a healthy way, to breathe, to think, to speak, and to act. Life itself is an expression of energetic strength. In the Book of Genesis, Adam and Eve came alive only after God breathed His breath into their nostrils. This energetic strength is a grace flowing from the Breath of God, or the Holy Spirit. Remember this: the strength to live a good and successful life is not self-generated. Rather, it flows to us from God’s own Spirit. Now more than ever we need to have a strong mind and spirit if we are to ride wisely the waves that will come our way in the present state of the world.

In the New Testament, Jesus makes this promise to His disciples and to us: "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses... to the ends of the earth.” Translation: God wants to give us the strength necessary to rise above any form of darkness that may come our way, and to help others do the same. Yet, we must be prepared to receive this heavenly strength. Think of it this way: our bodies, minds, and emotions can be compared to a cup. If the cup of our humanity is unbalanced, disturbed, or leaking, we cannot hold the spiritual energy, the strength that God desires to give us. Each and every day, we must consciously choose to live our lives prayerfully, wisely, and lovingly, rejecting anything that weakens our body, mind, or spirit. How can you honor your body, mind, and soul today?
