Planning for Peace and Prosperity
by Cynthia, White Flower
Now is the moment that we are given. This is our time to make a difference in our lives and in the world. This is a magnificent gift! We can shine in the knowledge that we are here for a purpose. Indeed, we are here to fulfill a role that no one else can fulfill. We are here to create something of value and to leave it for generations to benefit.

How can we best serve ourselves and others at this time in our lives? Peace is required. When we are peaceful, our thoughts and our creativity flows. When we are peaceful, we experience clarity that does not exist without peace. We are here to reflect the peace that we want, and the prosperity that exists – both waiting for us to realize that all is born within us. Peace begins with our desire for tranquility and our actions that follow. To attain peace, we must consciously carve out quiet time and fill it with that which transforms us from chaos to calm. The true prosperity is in giving to ourselves first. By giving ourselves the gift of peace, we create a pattern for life to give peace back to us, and for us to have more peace to give back to life. Giving ourselves peaceful moments creates peace in our hearts and a flow that supports our inner strength.
Sound is the earliest level of emanation that creates, and we are given this example in ancient texts. In the Christian Holy Bible, for example, Genesis 1:3 says, “And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.” So with thought and emotion, we speak, and sound takes the command, blends it with light to transform the command into form. We can use this beautiful gift in the conscious practice of affirmations. They are statements of whatever we want to manifest, repeated, with the purpose to shift the energies to bring our desires into manifestation. However, we must be strategic in our planning.
There is a special phrase that we use that calls our creative Higher Self into action - even when we don’t use the phrase consciously that way. That phrase is “I AM.” I AM means “The Creator in me is…” When you say “I AM peaceful,” you are also saying that The Presence of the Divine in Me and I am peaceful. Essentially “We are peaceful.” As The Creator, every time we say “I AM,” we are calling upon our God Presence to do whatever we are commanding. We also renew our Divinity every time we say the phrase “I AM.” We put into motion that which we say “I AM” about. To help create peace in your life, you could use intention with sound to create affirmations that say, “I AM peaceful. I AM calm. I AM relaxed. I AM undisturbed.”
We are surrounded with the energies of transformation. Sparkling holiday lights remind us that we are The Light manifest. We are here to be the light, shine the light, share the light and leave that legacy of light. Happy holiday music transforms us - taking us to times that seem simpler in our minds, reminding us of how sacred life is. Being peaceful and prosperous takes transformation. Be kind to yourself by giving yourself moments of tranquility. Sit in the window and let the sun caress you and with intent and purpose, seek the music that is simple and filled with warmth. Take deep breaths and imagine that you are breathing in the sunlight and exhaling your worries.
At this beautiful time of the season, realize how special you are. Give yourself the gifts that you desire the most for yourself and for the world. Know that the gift of peace opens the door to your prosperity for yourself and for the world. Namaste.
