Proverbs as Affirmations: Repetition

In Chapter 26, the way we speak is mentioned again:

I enjoy giving praise for what is good.

I take time to think of a good answer.

I can say that I am becoming more aware. I do tend to give more compliments now than what I used to do.

I recall having learnings from this next affirmation, from a previous time that I read this chapter.

I am wise and understand parables.

If you have read any of my previous posts, you may remember that I started reading the New Testament with much more interest, and had new insights from them. I read them with new eyes, so to speak.

Anyway, the thing about parables, is that is what Jesus used to convey a certain meaning, learning, etc., through parables.

Since our speech is suppose to be pure and kind, and we are to pronounce the innocent, innocent; then we are probably meant to keep our speech good about whomever we are talking about. Hmmm. Care to chime in on this. I say that with a bit of humor at this point in time. It is something I am working on.

Another interesting thing that I am thinking of right now, is that Jesus never took credit for anything. He said things like - My Father did ..., or Your faith has healed you.

It was all about one's mindset, belief, and listening to that inner heavenly guidance. We have been told in other books in the Bible, that the kingdom of God is within.

So breathe a sigh of relief, if you can; we do get lots of repetitions and reinforcement in this affirmation book, on how to be. If there are old beliefs that seem to dictate what shows up in your life, they got there by repetion and adopted belief. Trhough repetition and new adopted beliefs, the old ones can be transformed into new ones.

May you be blessed with repeating more good thoughts. Read more good thoughts in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Neighbors and Enemies

In writing yesterday's post, I had an epiphany of sorts. I shared my ponderings about God, and came to the realization, that the God that is Spirit, is the God that rings true for me. I still believe in God, and I still believe in this project. This morning, I felt more empowered to continue on with it.

And now onward, with Chapter 25.

Chapter 25 of the Bible Proverbs has one of my favorite verses, which was pretty consistent in the different Bibles: A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.

I didn't want to use any verse word for word, so below is the affirmation that I wrote in its place.

I speak kindly and wisely; it is like a picture of beauty.

Correction given by an experienced person to an obedient listener is valuable.

I speak correction in kind ways.

Neighbors are mentioned in this chapter as well.

I only visit my neighbors now and then, keeping my welcome fresh.

Building trust in yourself to choose the kind action is only part of it. We are also encouraged to see these traits in others.

I depend on those that are reliable.

I am at peace in myself.

Chapter 25 also tells us what to do when we don't feel like we are in the company of reliable people.

If another is hungry, I feed them.

If another is thirsty, I give them water to drink.

I changed the word enemy (that was in the Bible) to another, to help think of others in a better light and to not already give anyone a label.

Proverbs as Affirmations: My Ponderings about God

Today I have been wondering about God. God can be different things to different people. In the Bible, God is said to be Spirit. So is this Spirit, the substance in which we all live and breathe. Do the vibes that we are feeling affect how God, Spirit, responds to us.

Also, in the Bible, God is referred to as our Father. With that connotation, people expect God to communicate with us as his children.

Which is it, or is it both, or something else?

One of my biggest arguments that I had with God, was when my then concept of what I thought God was, was shattered. I had had a relationship with God, the father figure one. I had prayed to God on a pretty much regular basis. Back in the 70's, I prayed practically every night for God to make the Vietnam war end. I wondered why it wasn't happening. Didn't God hear my prayers?

There were things from my youth that I needed to get over. One of the ways I did that was to listen to a guided imagery tape, and imagine things that I liked and felt good about. I was having fun with it; it was an exercise in relaxing and playing with my imagination.

Low and behold, some of my imaginings started coming true. I was floored and surprised. Those things that I had spent time with in my imagination were coming true. I hadn't prayed for those things to come true, but they did, nonetheless. Why did those things come true when the many things I had prayed about hadn't.

I gave God, of my understanding at the time, a big piece of my mind; and my relationship with God was forever changed.

Nevertheless, I started learning about affirmations, and focusing my mind. I know that those things work, when I work them and stay on track. And I now see God as a Universal Spirit, that responds to us all, but perhaps not in the way that we may think or have been accustomed to.

Since I had, had such a strong relationship with the previous God of my understanding, that longing took awhile to move on from. I re-wrote the book of Proverbs into affirmations, as part of my own spiritual journey. I still wanted to do what God wanted me to do.

I found out, that according to my rewrite of Proverbs into affirmations, that God pretty much wants for me, what I want for me. A good life, good feelings, being kind, being successful, etc. But then, it also says to be reverent of God, to honor God. This part took awhile to learn. I had to figure out who God was.

What I have come to learn is that God, Spirit, is a part of each one of us, that always hears everything we tell it, because that Spirit is inside of us and around us. What we constantly tell ourselves, is what we see in our outer world. The kingdom of God is within.

I wanted to share my learnings with you, so that you can learn from them too, and perhaps have an easier transition.

As for Chapter 24, I am quite impressed with the following affirmation.

I think good thoughts.

I think this is most important, to think good thoughts, and be kind to one another, no matter what one's concept of God is.

May you be blessed with more and more good thoughts. Read more good thoughts in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Life Tips

Chapter 23 is a bit lighter, though I am sure it depends on where you are coming from.

It starts out with thoughts on eating.

When I sit to eat, I consider what is before me and I give thanks to God.

I only eat what is sufficient for me.

I eat what is good for me.

Attitude is important too.

I enjoy eating with those whose words are kind and their hearts also.

The relationship with God is ongoing.

When my heart is wise, God's heart rejoices.

How to think of your children is mentioned.

I am happy with my children.

Being sober is reinforced.

I stay on the sober path. My thinking stays clear.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Cleansing

Today I found myself using a form of an affirmation that I had read yesterday, the one about - God ponders our hearts and cleanses them.

I had felt different old emotions and beliefs come up and I was able to mentally say to each one - God cleanses that. Each time I did, that particular one cleared up. Another followed shortly behind, and I just repeated that statement, and it cleared up too, and the next, and so on. It seems like I was on a roll. But I wanted to get back to being at peace, peace with myself and peace with God.

I also repeated to myself - I honor God. Before these affirmations, I was busy trying to please myself and others, not that, that isn't good to do sometimes. But I'm glad that I am focusing now on my main relationship being with God.

So, on with some of what Chapter 22 is about.

It is about broadening ones scope.

All people meet together; God is the maker of us all.

I teach children how to live, and they remember it all of their lives.

The wise are my friends.

When I think about these verses, I am reminded to stop and think. There is a bigger picture, and did I help to create the one that I currently see, and how do I create the picture I'd rather see?

May you be blessed as well in your cleansing and refocusing. Read more cleansing affirmations in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Customers like a fair and just price. My prices are fair and just.

I take collateral that is surety for a stranger.

I enjoy getting good advice and succeeding.

By wise advice, I take action.

Trusting God is also mentioned.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Willing to Learn

I know that one is suppose to walk a more joyous path with God, and I have improved in many ways. Today, although the weather turned out better than predicted for today, for which I am very grateful, I did find myself getting caught up in the hype of it all. I wanted to go to work today, and I was able to, and the roads were still in good shape for the whole time. Again, I am grateful. Yet I know I experienced disappointment thinking about what the weather was going to to. Years later, I started affirming to God about my desire for the weather, and many times the weather has turned out much better than what was called for on the weather channel.

Now on with Chapter 19.

There is more insight on kindness.

Wealth makes many friends. I enjoy giving gifts.

In a previous chapter, it was mentioned about being generous. I have found that there are levels of generosity. There is the pure great feeling of feeling very giving in the moment, when you just know it's the right thing to do, and it is joyous. I felt that the other day, and it was great.

My desire is kindness.

I treat my parents with kindness.

Affirming shows that one is willing to learn. Read more powerful affirmations in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Gods Will

In Chapter 18, traits of character building are built upon.

I enjoy speaking words of Wisdom.

I enjoy putting forth good work.

The relationship with God is also built upon.

I am righteous, and my heart is connected to God.

I enjoy having wealth through God.

I am peaceful and in awe of God.

A sense of helpfulness is occurring.

I am glad to help others and others are glad to help me.

Throughout the day I have more easily found ways to be kind, and have also more easily taken kind action. I felt the appreciation of others. I am feeling more contented and peaceful.

When an old fear came up, I just noted it, mentally said to it - "It is just fear. Feel the fear and do it anyway." And I continued on with the positive action.

When I was a kid, I was told many times about doing God's will. But no one was ever really able to tell me how to find out what God's will was for me. I believe now that when one builds a relationship with God, and affirms God's will, then you will sense, in some way, what God's will is for you.

Affirm God's will with the affirmations in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Progress

Chapter 17; I am remembering that these are affirmations, the verses are statements of what I am affirming, of what is to come.

But I have seen the progress, so I am staying the course. I am willing for these affirmations to work in my life.

I enjoy being good to all of God's children.

Talking about others probably isn't being good to or for them, even if I don't know them personally. I choose to get better about that.

My family is wise. We notice and praise that which is good in each other.

I see that we are being calmer with each other, and kinder too.

We are wise and speak of excellent things.

I am wise and continue to learn.

So yes, the learning goes on and progress is being made. If you like, share a progress of yours in the comment section below.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Peaceful

Today I have been reading Chapter 16 today; part of it is about choosing righteousness and being peaceful.

Overall I have been more peaceful and calm. I'm liking that. Here are some of the affirmations from Chapter 16.

God loves the peaceful heart.

My heart is peaceful.

By mercy and truth, my iniquity is purged.

I revere God, and choose righteousness.

I am upright and choose righteousness.

Health is mentioned too:

My pleasant words are as honeycomb, sweet to my soul and health to my body.

That is very nice to think of, that our pleasant words can contribute to our good health.

As I am continuing to transform my thinking, which transforms how I respond, I realize the meaning of this next verse.

I am calm. I have control over my own spirit.

I appreciate reading these affirmations, I am finding them helpful.

I still recall a verse from a previous chapter that I continue to use: Love forgives all offenses. I am love. I still find this one quite helpful.

Have you found any of them helpful too? Do you have any favorites? I would appreciate hearing which ones they are. You can share in the comment section below.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Enjoy

In reading Chapter 15 I was pleased by the reading. In re-reading it later, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of times that the enjoy was mentioned.

Joy is such an important aspect of any kind of lasting transformation. Joy is what makes life worth living. We strive for more joy. We come up with reasons to celebrate. When you feel joy, you are also cultivating a spirit of gratitude. What better way to create a relationship with God, than one that includes joy.

I enjoy being connected to Spirit.

I enjoy a gentle and kind answer; it is good.

I enjoy giving knowledge to those who are ready to hear.

I enjoy my treasure.

I enjoy listening to wisdom.

I enjoy being in reverence of Love.

That last affirmation is so important to me. I remember being taught that we were to fear God. But one of the other Bibles that I translated from had used the word, awe instead of fear. That made so much more sense to me.

What a joy it is having the right word at the right time.

That is the kind of relationship that I prefer to have with God. The God that I revere, am in awe of, and that I find awesome, and enjoy.

Today, I am going to share my reading of Chapter 15 out loud. Enjoy.

Hope you enjoyed listening to the video. Find more affirmations in Proverbs as Affirmations. The highlighted text links below the picture will take you to Amazon.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Goals

Much of Chapter 14 is I am statements. God is known as the great I am. I guess it serves us well to follow God's way.

Many of the verses declare being wise, and gives more insight into the wisdom.

I am wise.

I am wise. I understand my way.

Much of this reminds me about goal setting. Many of the things that I have become and achieved is because I had set a goal. Whether I actively thought about the goal, wrote it down, affirmed it, or imagined it. In whichever way I chose at the time, I had set or intended a goal.

Having a goal is helping to lay the path for your way. Having a goal sets your sights on where you are going.

I am wise. I stay on the right path.

Again, the goal is set, sights are set. Keep your eyes on the goal and your path shall be straight.

I envision good.

Thank you for stopping in and sharing in this journey.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Positive Speech

Today was my reading of Chapter 13.

I was reminded about keeping my own speech pure.

I like that I eat well by the fruit of my mouth.

I keep my mouth and I keep my life.

I had been a bit disappointed by some news that I found out. I wondered why it had turned out the way it did, and then I remembered about something I had said before. Then affirmations that talk about keeping my path straight come to mind. Yes, that is one of the ways to keep my path straight - through my speech.

So I shall remember that and take it to heart. I did a clearing prayer and that helped to get me to a better place and a better frame of mind.

When one starts using positive affirmations, it really goes better when all of your speech is in the positive way.

I just chuckled as I read the affirmation, I persevere. I act with knowledge.

I guess this one is becoming more true. I am diligent; I keep pursuing. I shall be acting with knowledge, especially as I continue to learn and practice these teachings.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Kindness and Poll

Chapter 12 reminds me of peaceful and kind thoughts

Kindness, Affirmation stickers with colorful stars
by CherylsArt

These are some of the verses.

I enjoy having kind thoughts.

I take good care of my family.

I am wise and think before speaking.

Kind words bring cheer.

Reading these affirmations now brings peace to me. When I read them for the first time, years ago, I wasn't so peaceful about it. I was still learning to be more kind, and to be kind more consistently. It is easier this time around. Kindness like anything, can can improve with practice.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Mind Set

I looked back over Chapter 11 to refresh my memory. For actually, the verse I found myself repeating today was from Chapter 10.

Love forgives all offenses. I am love.

I used that quite a few times today. As things came up that didn't have a good feeling, I repeated this verse to myself. I found it helpful and soothing. It kept me on a more even keel which is different than what I would have normally done, on days before I began this new re-reading of Proverbs as Affirmations. Amen to positive change and repetition.

The other thing I want to mention, is that things that you say and read aloud from these pages, may not be true for you in the present. Some affirmations may already be true for you. For the other affirmations, they are seeds that you are planting. Then you get to nourish those seeds and watch them grow. And as with any plant, they continue to need nourishment to thrive. That's the way it is when working with affirmations. It takes repetition to help them take hold and to thrive, and to become your new mind set.

Good character directs my way.

I enjoy being confident in God.

I sow good thoughts and am secure in blessings.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Gladness

I found myself continuing to change. Mostly in little ways, or at least a little bit at a time.

I caught myself from saying something and either thought of a kind way to express what I wanted to say, or say nothing at all.

In reading Chapter 10, I came upon an affirmation that just felt so pleasant.

My hope is gladness.

I practiced thinking gladness throughout the day. It felt a little different than when I had thought of gratitude. It was a nice switch to think of gladness; it was also pleasant.

Most of the verses in Chapter 10 are of the character building kind and also establishing and reinforcing your relationship with God. Some of the affirmations I made from Chapter 10 are:

I gain wealth by honest ways and my life is saved.

I am fed by God.

Love forgives all offenses. I am love.

I've been practicing this one today as well. A later affirmation is helpful:

I fill my heart with love.

I find these affirmations pleasant to read, and to absorb.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Wisdom and God

Today was the reading of Chapter 9. More details are given about Wisdom.

Reverence of God is the beginning of wisdom.

I was still trying to figure out exactly who or what Wisdom is. I do know that Wisdom has a lot of positive attributes, and being connected to Wisdom also seems quite positive as well. But sometimes Wisdom seems more like a place or a thing; then others it seems like an embodiment of very wise things to do and be.

By having wisdom, my days are multiplied, and years are added to my life.

From what I know about God, which is what I've read in the Bible, is that God is Spirit. I have also read that God is omnipotent and omniscient.

Therefore this Spirit is unlimited in authority and power, and knows all things. Could it be then, that this Divine Energy flows through each and every one of us, which I think it does. Does it mean that we are always communicating with God, even when we didn't know that we were?

Proverbs as Affirmations: Wisdom was created by God

Chapter 8 describes Wisdom. Wisdom is not just about being wise.

Wisdom is everywhere.

Wisdom uses sound judgment, and finds knowledge and understanding.

Wisdom's fruit is pleasant and a joy to receive.

Wisdom sounds like definitely being more than just being wise.

With Wisdom, I have understanding and strength.

Wisdom walks in the path of being just and kind.

I find much comfort in this chapter. We don't have to be smart and figure everything out on our own. God has created Wisdom. Wisdom is available to us all.

Proverbs as Affirmations: Respect

I am continuing to grow and transform. Today felt more gradual than previous days. I guess since I've been doing this steady for a week now.

One affirmation in Chapter 7 really got my attention when I read it this morning.

I respect my spouse and my spouse respects me.

I've read verses about love and commitment before, but not respect. When I read respect, it did not ring true for me. As the morning went on I began to question myself - What is respect? So I gave it some thought; respect to me is honesty, integrity, kindness. There might have been some more. So then I began affirming those qualities of respect about my spouse. Yes, I needed to see my spouse in a new light. Reading that verse helped to give me insight. It's kind of amazing how it all works.

Saying something as so doesn't necessarily make it so. Sometimes there may be work involved to help make it so.

Part of this path is learning and practicing a new way to talk, as well as a new way of thinkingk, and also following through with new action(s). Sometimes it feels more like work than simple acceptance. Then I work on having a more positive feeling, or just letting something be for awhile, whatever seems to work best for me at the time.

Respect can begin with respecting ones own self and your own words. Find out more 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.
