“You cannot consistently feed your consciousness thoughts of Oneness without eventually living from a Consciousness of Oneness.”

I know that God is pure Joy, the radiant celebration of Life expressing everywhere. Spirit’s essence is bliss, delight, and the sparkle of creation. The energy of joy permeates the universe, and it is always available to be experienced. 

I know that I am one with Divine Joy. Its energy flows through me, lifting my spirit and brightening every corner of my life. I am the smile of God, the laughter of Spirit, and the delight of creation in human form. 

I affirm joy is my natural state. I welcome laughter, playfulness, and delight into my day. My presence radiates joy, uplifting all who encounter me. Even in challenges, joy bubbles up, reminding me that Spirit is always present. 

I am grateful for the ease and freedom that joy brings. Gratitude deepens my awareness of the joy that has always been within me. I give thanks for every small and large reason to smile. 

I release this prayer into Divine Law, knowing joy flows abundantly and effortlessly through me now. And so it is. 

Rev. Tony Crapolicchio
