Live – Laugh – Love

Turns out money can’t buy Happiness.

When we live from our heart we begin to realize we are not separate, we have a divine connection. The universe doesn’t care about our achievements, what we call our successes. The universe cares about our heart, and how well we have loved.

Easter comes to us at a time of the year when we are seeing renewal in nature. What about the renewal within us? If you put yourself into the Easter story from a metaphysical perspective, we ask what is the nature of the stone that keeps you entombed? Like Jesus, that stone cannot continue to hold me back.

Norman Vincent Peale coined this term, describing an approach to life that focuses on what is possible, rather than obstacles, fostering resilience, creativity, and a feeling that all good is possible.

We know that our thoughts are creative, but do we allow Spirit to do the work in creating our most amazing life, or do we get involved with ideas of lack, limitation, IMpossibility, and “yes, but…”

Oh, how we love to fantasize, dream and talk about how we’d change the world “if only…” everything outside of us would only change first! Today, we’re deep diving in to the basics of spiritual law and how the creative process works. It all seems so straightforward when we hear or read about it.  So, why do we have such a difficult time putting it into practice?  Guest speaker and musical artist Rev. Kit Holmes will offer some helpful perspectives!

Have you ever felt spiritually clear and connected, only to wonder later where that feeling went? In this talk, we explore the dance between the ego’s story of “I had it, I lost it” and the deeper truth of our being. As we release conditioned identities and rest in present-moment awareness, we discover something profound: what we are seeking was never missing. The Self we truly are has always been here.

Am I making my own choices to create my life, or am I giving Race Mind the control? 

Our Global Vision is “Awakening humanity to its spiritual magnificence in a world that works for all.” Do we really mean that? Do we have any idea of how to put feet on that vision, to manifest it into the every day lives of all? What if we did know? What if the doorway to the answers we are seeking is right now, available? What if we had the courage to live it onto reality? 

Have you ever been on silent retreat and emerged seeing the world in a different way?  

What does it mean to step into the mystery of life, to stand on the edge of what is known and trust that all is unfolding in perfect divine right timing?  Within the creative process, there is a space which holds the mystery of how things will unfold.  We can connect with our deepest innermost selves in silence. This week we listen to the unknown for the still small voice within to reveal the next right and perfect next move for ourselves, for how we interact with others, and for the world.  We delve into universal subjective consciousness and see what lessons we have to learn.    

Each of us is unique. We have a gift to share. It only gets shared if we walk our own path, and not the path anyone else thinks is right for us. We are responsible for our own life. We need to move away from blame, shame and victimhood.
