Give yourself permission to create

When I first started the process of transforming the verses of Proverbs into affirmations, I had wanted it to be an end all book. One that I could read and use and have everything fall perfectly into place.

As it turned out, it wasn't that kind of book at all; at least not for me. It turned out to be a book that gave me permission to use affirmations again, and with God's blessings.

There are many character building tips to use along the way: to be kinder, to bless, to believe in possibilities, and to know that the good that I sought was all okay with God. And that was important to me.

That had been my search, to do what was in line with what God wanted me to do. And with this book, that is what I found.

May your search and learning be easier than mine. Read more thoughts of transformation in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

There is a journal version (8-1/2 by 11 inches, pictured on the right), which includes lines to write the affirmations for added reinforcement, or the portable smaller version (6 by 9 inches, pictured on the left), without lines, which is easier to carry.

Much blessings to you on your journey.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Taking new action

As you read, write, and learn these affirmations, you may be inspired to take new action. Perhaps you'll be inspired to listen to a meditation, go for a walk, say a prayer, give thanks, make amends of some sort, give a gift, give a compliment, etc. The list can include any number of new ways of acting and or being.

You also may just sit quietly and take time to let the affirmations sink in more. For some affirmations, you might need to take some time to wrap your head around them. I have found that if I find any resistance at all when I first read any of the affirmations, to simply repeat it, and maybe repeat it a couple of more times. I find that helpful as I continue to adjust my thinking.

Remember that affirmations are based on desires and not necessarily what you are currently experiencing. So some affirmations can take more time to make them part of your being and your beliefs.

Take your time, be gentle with yourself. Go smile at yourself in front of a mirror and pay yourself a compliment, i.e. "You're doing a good job. Good going. I love you."

As we change the thoughts in our mind and the way we think, new ideas can come forth. Divine Spirit works in wondrous ways.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Pray for Your Children

Chapter 31 is one of my favorite chapters. It features a prayer to say for your child/children.

The first verse is the opening for the prayer:

I am thankful that I am connected to God, and that these are the sincere words of me as a parent.

You are my dear child, the answer to my prayers.

What shall I tell you?

Let these words be your own if you so choose, and that they be good for all concerns.

I am thankful that I use my energy for the true desires of my heart.

I give that which I also wish to receive.

I keep my words pure.

I foster love in my heart.

And it goes on, with many words of wisdom on how to be and live righteously, followed by rewards for right living.

Here is the whole prayer printed on posters. It is a lovely gift for yourself and or other parents and new parents. A blank line is provided to write in a child's name for a personalized gift.
