Greetings!
We teach we live in a naturally abundant universe. Ideas and a consciousness of lack often can manifest in our material world but we believe there is a greater truth always available. Abundance is a spiritual reality that is never altered by human circumstances. Life is abundant.
The first time I heard words like these I thought the minister was off his rocker. What did he know of my life or my conditions? Hadn't he seen the paper lately or watched the news? How could he say these things with a straight face. The small i of my ego, the small self, the cynic and the doubter were all activated. But, I thought there were others who were nodding their heads in agreement who I respected greatly so I hung in there with an open mind to see what was possibly there for me.
I have come to realize that while conditions in my life may tell me I am separate and on my own and that the conditions dictate my reality but a deeper truth is always available. That I can acknowledge the conditions as a facts but know there is always a deeper truth available to me if I am willing to change my mind and see the situation differently. I have come to understand that true prosperity and a consciousness of abundance is not simply money in the bank. A consciousness of abundance is healthy and uplifting relationships, health, vitality, and an abundance of energy to live life to the fullest, it is peace of mind and serenity no matter the life conditions, and it enough financial resources to do all I desire and all I am called to do. It is the belief that there is enough for everyone and the willingness to take the actions in my everyday life to do what is mine to do to make this a lived reality for all people.
If you are seeking to create a new way of being and acting to manifest the consciousness of prosperity and abundance in your life I encourage you to sign up and participate in the Keys to the Kingdom class. This is a seven week class beginning September 30 at 7:00 PM. We hope to see you there.
This week we conclude our series on the Metaphysics of Broadway with music from Steven Sondheim's Into the Woods. Rev Ray will provide the message, Rev Val will lead the meditation, and Colette Delaney will provide the special music featuring the song You are Not Alone.
Rev. Ray Nelson Senior Minister
