The spirit within me exists as an internal knowledge that is not necessarily preceded by information or cognition. It is the source of strength that provides everything I need. I do not want for anything, but I want everything that I have. This spirit provides peace for me in my life. I am never alone, the spirit never leaves me. Through the spirit anything is possible. It is because of the spirit that I no longer “want for anything”. I am not driven by “needing more”. The faith I have in this spirit lets me know that no matter what happens in life, I will still be okay. I refrain from saying “my spirit”, as that would imply ownership. I allow, and in fact have asked the spirit to live in me.
I have a pure form of love for the spirit. Because of that love, I do what I can to understand and receive direction from the spirit. My obedience to the spirit is a result of the love that I have, resulting in a prosperous life.
The spirit is perfect and infallible. As a human being, I am fallible and makes mistakes. If I could pray only one prayer for the rest of my life, it would be “God, give me the knowledge of your will for me in my life”. Any plan that I could create for my life could never be as good God’s plan for me. I cannot see into the future. The events of today are the foundation of tomorrow. If there is sadness or tragedy, I trust the spirit that my distress may be part of a master plan. My experiences are needed and serve a purpose for the future. It is not always for me to understand why something happens.
