Each Veteran Lives in Peace

Rev Martha Quintana, Senior Minister

I dedicate this prayer to every man and woman who are or have been in the military. Thank you, Veterans, for your service.

God is Love. The Energy of God, that which precedes anything, is Love and it is carried in Light. From that Light, comes Life, and from that Life, comes creativity and everything else. God is All There Is, and I am certain the Life of Knowing originates in that Great I Am. I Am is Love, Peace, Happiness, Goodness, Truth, Reality, and Happiness.

The mere thought of Love aligns God and me. I am so wholly and perfectly aligned that anything unlike Love falls away. I, too, am love, peace, happiness, goodness, truth, reality, and happiness. I am the conduit for my life and from this vantage point of love, my life expands to include the highest and best for myself and others.

As I know this for me, I know this for all men and women who serve or have served in the military. Each person is so wholly and perfectly aligned that anything unlike Love falls away. Each person is protected and that circle of protection extends all around him and her and as far as their families. Each are love, peace, happiness, goodness, truth, reality, and happiness.

I speak my word on behalf of all veterans. Peace is the operative word and is the experience that each feels right here and now. That peace is the basis for a life well-lived and for the creation of a goodness so deep and profound, it cannot be denied. If forgiveness of self and others is in order, then it is done. All are forgiven their transgressions. Health reigns and abundance serves them. I am certain of this.

I give thanks for all of it. I give thanks for the goodness of Life and for all of the Veterans who have served our country. I give thanks that each of these Veterans have everything they need and that peace is a central component in their lives. I am so grateful.

It is with gratitude that I release my word knowing it is done. And So It Is.
