Keep These People in Your Prayers
Ongoing
|
When we pray for a person, we pray not to God, but from a consciousness of God. In this consciousness, we see the wholeness and beauty and blessings already available to the person, and we use our prayers to affirm, acknowledge and give thanks for this Truth about the situation.
~ Mary-Alice and Richard Jafolla

... our sincere UNITY blessings and congratulations to a wonderful Teacher, Linda Success with your exciting new book:
Healing: My Pilgrimage with Tagore, India's Revered Teacher
by
Linda L George Ph.D.
A retired clergy person, with over 30 years of experience in civilian and military chaplaincy, explores her own grief experiences, including the deaths of two husbands, as well as reflections on myriad other losses everyone suffers. The author shares how we can easily relate to the sorrows of the Nobel Prize-winning poet Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941). His life and writings are strikingly relevant today and offer heartfelt messages of hope and strength.

Our Guiding Prayer
In this holy moment, I pause to breathe and open. I open my mind to know the nature of God and my divine nature. I open my heart to experience the silent yet certain reality of infinite life, love, and creativity.
No matter what is happening at any moment, in the world around me or within my experience, I am not subject to its effects. In fact, I am not my circumstances or my experiences. I am wholly divine, and all is well with my soul.
I sink into the still waters, the state of perfect peace, where nothing can interrupt or displace the flow of life, love, and creativity. In this state of awareness, I rest. I renew. I blossom. I thrive.
Steeped in joyful appreciation, I celebrate my ever-expanding capacity to know that all is well with my soul. I choose to live, love, and create well.
And so it is.

T.H.I.N.K.
I’ve often said that it’s always a good idea to apply the acronym T.H.I.N.K. before we speak: Is it True? Is it Helpful? Is it Inspiring? Is it Necessary? Is it Kind?
If what you’re about to say doesn’t meet those standards, then don’t say it.
– Greg Laurie
'...be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger'
James 1:19
...Do more than belong: participate. Do more than care: help. Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work.
- William Arthur Ward

We are One Nation Under God...
a message from kneel
|
|
We must not limit ourselves to believing we are a nation with a 'glass half full - half empty' mentality
|
|
Are we incapable of celebrating our common attributes instead of judging / broadcasting our differences? In a world made up solely of unique individuals, comparison and judgement makes no sense. Besides, we all bleed the same color, red !
'...Judge not that you be judged, for with the judgement you pronounce, you will be judged and the measure you give will be the measure you will receive'. 'If you must judge, judge rightly'... 'For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways'
Sadly, some have allowed the removal of God from our schools, colleges, institutions, businesses, government, courts, hospitals, homes... Fortunately, there are those that believe we are one nation under God -a God with many Names.
Two of the most repetitive names in the sacred texts of many World religions: Heart and GOD
Wisdom from ACIM:
All things are lessons God would have me learn
I can choose Peace instead of this
Would I rather be right or happy
If I defend myself, I am attacked
I am never upset for the reason I think
Above all else, I want the Peace of God
From my heart, I pray that we ask God, by whatever name, to guide us through these times.
May God's Will Be Done. Please, let us all turn off our electronic devices, go into our room, close the door, and ask GOD for guidance. I believe, Prayer will have a big impact on the future of our Planet.
May we never have to regret that we reached a point in our lives when we prayed so little...
In God We Trust

our journey is short ... ❤️❤️

the Journey is short ...
thank you Patti for reposting this on Facebook ❤️❤️
An elderly woman got on a bus and sat down. At the next stop, a strong grumpy young woman climbed up and sat down beside the old woman, hitting her with her numerous bags.
When she saw the elderly woman remained silent, the young woman asked why she had not complained when she hit her with her bags?
The elderly woman replied with a Smile: “There is no need to be rude or discuss something so insignificant, as my trip next to you is so short, because I am going to get off at the next stop.” ❤️❤️
This answer deserves to be written in gold letters: “There is no need to discuss something so insignificant, because our journey together is so short.” ❤️
Each of us must understand that our time in this world is so short, that darkening it with useless arguments, jealousy, not forgiving others, discontentment and bad attitudes are a ridiculous waste of time and energy. ❤️❤️❤️
Did someone beak your heart? Stay calm. The trip is too short.❤️
Did someone betray you? Intimidate, cheat or humiliate you? Relax – don’t be stressed. The trip is too short.❤️
Did someone insult you without reason? Stay calm. Ignore it. The trip is too short.❤️
Did a neighbor make a comment that you didn’t like? Stay calm. Ignore it. Forget and Forgive. The trip is too short.❤️
Whatever the problem someone has brought us, remember that our journey together is too short ...❤️
No one knows the length of our trip. Nobody knows when it will arrive at its stop.
Our trip together is too short.❤️
Let us appreciate friends and family. Let us be respectful, kind and forgiving.
Because we will be filled with gratitude and joy, after all…
Our trip together is very short.❤️
Share your Smile :)) with everyone… Our trip is too short ! ❤️❤️❤️
-Author Unknown (-although, Unity Center of Peace may know)
too many hearts? ... nope❤️ !

A Course of Love, ACIM
Tuesdays @ 7:30 pm
|
|
From Bob Tite:
A Course of Love (ACOL) is a dictation from Jesus to the First Receiver, a woman named Mari Perron.
ACOL was first published in 2003 and is a next iteration of Jesus' truth as originally set out in The New Testament and again in A Course in Miracles (ACIM). It is a more modern read, yet one can hear and feel the authority of Jesus just as one can in ACIM. I feel reinforcement of scriptures in both ACIM and ACOL.
ACOL is three volumes in one book. "The Course," "The Treatises," and "The Dialogues." I have grown more and more enthused about it every time I read from it. It speaks with an authority you expect to hear from Jesus.
Sessions occur every Tuesday from 7:30 ~ 9:00 pm via Skype. Email your Skype profile to Bob Tite. I'll dial the group call list and you may join the call or not anytime during the session. We will begin reading from the front end to the back taking as much time as our discussions require.
We are all equally expert in ACOL. Let us learn it together since it is all about union, wholeheartedness, and relationship. Email me and I will provide my home phone number where you can contact me between 9am and 9pm EDT.
I can also give you a link to read the first book on the combined volume via the web!
... for those interested in exploring ACIM- material and other Christ mind books, the website my friend and regular Reading group attendee, Rick Mercer has created. <Christmind.info> is the link.

Time for some sales stats... not only is Amazon.com by far the largest U.S. retailer in terms of online sales, it's also growing faster than e-commerce as a whole. And e-
commerce is growing much faster than retail sales in stores.
