The Third Secret of Answered Prayer – June 21, 2020

Loving greetings and may you and your loved ones be healthy and safe as together we walk through these challenging times. I have no doubt that you, like myself, feel a strong inward call to prayer for our entire global family. As I read articles and watch programs about this situation, I hear the recurring statement that never in our recorded human history has there been such an obvious expression of our interdependence upon one another to now live in such a way that is for the greater good of all humanity.

To the guidelines based on science given to us by the CDC, I add that of the spiritual science of prayer, which inspired this month’s theme, “The Four Secrets of Answered Prayer.” I’ve had some extra assistance from a book I read The Prayer Chest, a novel co-authored by New Thought ministers August Gold and Joel Fotinos.

I look forward to your joining the Beloved Community as we unite in prayer and celebration of the Spirit.

The June 21, 2020 topic is The Third Secret of Answered Prayer. Whenever authentic prayer appears in our hearts, separation disappears. We consciously sense our oneness with Spirit in the simplest, purest, most direct sense. This is answered prayer, because when we enter this state of consciousness there is no need to ask or affirm anything—we know absolutely that all needs are already met, causing a wordless gratitude to wash over us.

The June 14, 2020 topic is The Second Secret of Answered Prayer. In addition to activating universal law through Spiritual Mind Treatment, how often during the activities of an ordinary day do we break into spontaneous prayer, asking for nothing but simply as an expression of love, joy, and gratitude for the gift of life? This form of prayer is a way of affirming, “I am grateful for the realization that I AM an individualized expression of pure Spirit.”

Join us this Sunday as together we learn how we can amplify the power of prayer for ourselves and our world.

The Gift of Delay – May 31, 2020

As our global family faces the impact of the novel Coronavirus, no matter how many times we hear or read the words “We’re in this together,” let us remember that they point to a universal truth. For as the master teacher Jesus affirms in Corinthians 12:26: “If one member suffers, all suffer together, if one member is honored, all rejoice together,” which is to say we are one in the Spirit.

Where There Is Doubt Let Me Sow Faith, Where There Is Despair Let Me Sow Hope, Where There Is Darkness and Sadness Let Me Sow Light and Joy – April 26, 2020

As we celebrate Easter and Passover holidays, they will no doubt be etched in our collective memory as being the most unforgettably unique in our cultural, familial, and spiritual history. While members of the world’s spiritual communities will be gathering together online rather than in person, let us be mindful of the truth that there is no distance between souls. This is the very basis of our trust in why we need not be in one another’s physical presence for spiritual mind treatment to manifest, for the energy of loving-kindness and compassion to embrace and uplift our global family.

It is in this spirit that I invite you to tune into our virtual community—via podcast or on our website—each Sunday as we connect heartfully to this month’s theme, “I Am Your Instrument,” and allow spiritual principle and practice to stir our hearts and move us into a peaceful state of intent and faith.

The topic on April 26, 2020, was Where There Is Doubt Let Me Sow Faith, Where There Is Despair Let Me Sow Hope, Where There Is Darkness and Sadness Let Me Sow Light and Joy.

Remembering who and what we are as individualized expressions of Spirit, we will light up the world with the healing energy of Joy. And rejoice in it.
