In the beginning was my consciousness, and my consciousness was with Divine Mind, and my consciousness was Divine Mind. My consciousness or awareness of being is the first (cause) and the last (effect) in my life. All things come to me through my consciousness, even when I do not realize it.
All things come into being through consciousness, and without consciousness not one thing comes into being. As Johnnie Colemon used to say, “I am the thinker, who thinks the thought, that makes the thing.” My thought is the alpha and omega in my life experience. When I change my mind, I activate the creative process of consciousness to dissolve what is currently expressing and manifest the new thought that I am holding.
My consciousness is always becoming “flesh” and expressing in my life. What I am aware of, with understanding, automatically expresses in my life. What I hold in thought must demonstrate because God’s universe is governed by cause and effect. What I think is always the first movement of mind toward what I will manifest. When I have a strong feeling along with my thought, I create the mental equivalent of my desired good. Thinking is the formative power of creation in my life. As I think, so I express.
Audibly affirm: My consciousness is the formative power of God is action. My awareness is creative. My thoughts create things. I manifest good easily.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1 NRSVUE
