Today's Inspiration

presented by Marie T. Russell, InnerSelf.com

December 13, 2022

The focus for today's inspiration is:

I choose to put goodness into the world.

Goodness is the natural state of this world. The world is good! Even when it seems evil, it's good. 
There's only goodness in God.

And that same goodness is in us all. You can feel it in yourself. You know when you feel good inside. Yes, you're God's child, too. You are good. You are sacred.

Respect yourself. Love the goodness in yourself. Then, put that goodness into the world. That's everybody's Instructions.
