How many times have you heard or even muttered to yourself, 'What a mess the
world is in these days, what chaos and confusion.' You have felt that there is
nothing much you could do about it. It seems hopeless and out of your control so
you have hidden yourself away in your shell, like a snail, and left the world to keep
on getting worse and worse. 

Where is your sense of responsibility towards the state of the planetv Do you not
realise that what you do, how you live and how you think can help or hinder things? 

It takes every tiny grain of sand to make up the seashore. It takes every tiny drop
of water to make up the ocean. What you do with your thinking helps to make or
mar the world - have you ever thought of that? The more souls who are thinking
loving, positive and constructive thoughts the better. You are all very much part of
this wonderful world you live in. You are each a tiny part of that vast wholeness and
you have your specific part to play. The quicker you realise this, the quicker will
the state of the world change. 

Cease being drawn into the whirlpool of universal thought-forms of chaos and
confusion, destruction and devastation. Start right now concentrating on the wonder
and beauty of the world around you. Give thanks for everything. Bless all those
with whom you come into contact. Refuse to see the worst in people, in things, in
conditions, and seek always for the very best. Concentrate on the best and see the
wonderful changes which will take place in the world all around you. 

You can do this and you can start doing it today. In fact you can start doing it now.
This is not being like an ostrich, hiding your head in the sand and refusing to face
the realities of the world. It is simply looking for and concentrating on the very best
in everything and everyone. 

You are a tiny world within yourself. When there is peace, harmony, love and
understanding right there, deep within your inner world, it will reflect in the outer
conditions all around you. Start putting your own house in order. Start readjusting
your thinking and living. Stop pointing your finger at someone else and spotlighting
their faults and failings. You have more than enough to do to right yourself. When
you can do that, you are beginning to help the whole vast situation. 

Why not start right now to love the world you are in, enjoying it to the full and
absorbing the beauties and wonders of it. It is so full of energies and goodness. It is
a wonderful, wonderful world and you are greatly blessed and privileged to be living
in it. It is up to you to bring Heaven down on Earth. What are you doing about it?
Stop looking to other people to do it and start doing something about it yourself.
