WHEN YOU PRAY ...

go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret will reward you. ... Your Father knows what you need before you ask Him." said Jesus, the Christ.[MATTHEW 6:6-8]
Prayer is the heartbeat of the Unity movement. Prayer is also a core practice of most "religious" institutions as well the central focus of all spiritual seekers. Yet, ask anyone "What IS Prayer?" and I'll bet you'll get as many answers as there are people willing to share their insights.


I say the only TRUE prayer is the acknowledgement of a Higher Power, that which most of us call "God." It is my personal belief that the Divine Energy we refer to as "God" is fully aware of every desire of our heart and our own use of words to detail our needs is totally superfluous. Studies now show that even words are meaningless unless accompanied by "feeling" what it is like to have the desire truly expressed.


You will find several definitions of prayer on this website. Enter the "QUIET ROOM" then click on "What is Prayer?" What is prayer to YOU???

"RECESSION OR REFORMATION???"

My good friend, colleague, mentor, and Unity minister, Phillip Pierson, says: "It is quite clear to all of us that we are involved in a major world economic crisis. It is to all appearances a recession from the remarkable prosperity that most western nations have enjoyed for many years. I suggest that the Truth of our situation is that we are not in a recession but rather in a process of reformation. A reformation according to the Webster's Collegiate Dictionary is 'a change for the better!' One says we are going backward and the other says we are going forward to something better."


It is my personal observation that we have been in process of a continually accelerated "reformation" ever since the electronic mediae took off with, first radio, then TV, movies, and finally the WEB ( that which I call that W-onderfully E-nlightened B-eing." This is what Barbara Marx Hubbard referred to as "the Planetary Nervous System." And, indeed, now we TRULY know we are all One!


Jesus, the Christ, told us: "The Truth will be shouted from the rooftops!" Now that which had been hidden in the darkness WILL be brought into the Light! JC also said: "There will be wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. .. Nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains." [MATTHEW 24:6-8]


Perhaps we are now in the "birth canal," in process of "birthing" or "re-forming" the Cosmic Consciousness to that of the Compassionate Christ. Perhaps this is why we are feeling like the trapeze artist who has just let go the old bar and are reaching for the new one??? What thinkest YOU???

STAR LIGHT ... STAR BRIGHT!

Astronomers have told us that stars have been sending light to us for hundreds of thousands of years. Yet when we are looking at them, they may not be where we are seeing them at all, they may be somewhere else, as light takes eight and a half minutes to get to us.
Astronomers and other scientists have also told us that our human physical composite is the same composite as that of the stars. That is, we are physically made of "STAR STUFF."
This set me to wondering: If we are made of "star stuff" are there "beings" where we see stars looking out into the night sky and watching us "twinkle" like they do for us??? And ... does our brightness depend on how much we intentionally LET OUR LIGHT SHINE??? TWINKLE, TWINKLE, LITTLE STAR!
What do YOU think, O STAR OF WONDER???
