The Third Secret of Answered Prayer – September 17, 2017

At the Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles, you will hear relevant messages, by Rev. Pam MacGregor, that you can apply to everyday life.

I’m quite sure that, like myself, you’ve directed an abundance of prayerful energy into Laws governing the universe! This month 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 became inspired to base this month’s theme—The Secrets of Answered Prayer—upon their book, because I found it so supportive in deepening my prayer practice.

Now of course those of us who have read the Science of Mind textbook by Dr. Ernest Holmes are familiar with the principles underlying spiritual mind treatment, and sometimes we may lose sight of some of the subtleties involved in answered prayer. So I offer you this month’s weekly topics as a means of rejuvenating and accelerating our spiritual practice of scientific, affirmative prayer.

The topic on September 17, 2017, was The Third Secret of Answered Prayer. The third secret is about surrendering and placing ourselves in a trusting mindset so that answered prayer can manifest in, as, and through us. The reason this involves increasing our trust factor is because we keep looking for outer signs according to our own understanding of what they should look like, rather than Spirit’s transformative process of refining our consciousness for the outer manifestation of answered prayer.

The topic on September 10, 2017, was The Second Secret of Answered Prayer. Once again Dr. Holmes tells us, “Our whole theory is based not only on the belief in Spirit, but in the availability of It—Its immediate response.” So now we have the second clue, that because of our limitless access to Spirit, we can be assured It listens, hears, and responds. Therefore, how will we eliminate mind-static so that we may deeply listen, hear and respond to the inner guidance coming directly from Spirit’s treasure chest.

Authentic Forgiveness Includes Forgetness – August 20, 2017

At the Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles, you will hear relevant messages, by Rev. Pam MacGregor, that you can apply to everyday life.

Loving greetings and welcome to our last month of Summer. My prayer is that it has been a season of inner growth, contentment, and sweet times for you. We will continue to excavate the deepest contours of our hearts and spirits throughout August’s theme Stretching the Heart, Opening the Mind.

The topic on August 20, 2017, was Authentic Forgiveness Includes Forgetness. “Forgiveness is the economy of the heart…forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits,” said Hannah More. And doing so just might require the 70 x 7 effort Jesus speaks of in Matthew 18:22. Our relationship with forgiveness can be quite complex, and until we add the element of “forgetness” it may be incomplete. So let’s take a look with an intention to forgive and forget with authenticity of heart.

Loving greetings and welcome to our last month of Summer. My prayer is that it has been a season of inner growth, contentment, and sweet times for you. We will continue to excavate the deepest contours of our hearts and spirits throughout August’s theme Stretching the Heart, Opening the Mind.

The topic on August 13, 2017, was Applying The Power of Non-Resistance. Our inclination to resist anything that we don’t want in our lives can be shortsighted. There are many aspects of being human that show up to shake and wake us, but if we deny or bypass them, we miss not only their gifts, but also our capacity to wisely, skillfully work with challenges. Is there a benefit to not “fighting” a disease and changing our attitude, our view towards it? That’s what we explore in this Talk.

At the Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles, you will hear relevant messages, by Rev. Pam MacGregor, that you can apply to everyday life.

Loving greetings and welcome to the month of July wherein we celebrate freedom and independence. Certainly we can all relate to the outer definition of these words, but what about their more profound meanings in terms of our awareness of ourselves as individualized expressions of Spirit, free as Spirit is free, awake as Spirit is awake? To support us in our individual answer to this question, our theme of the month is Our Inheritance of Independence.

The topic on July 30, 2017, was The Secret of Prosperous Living, Part II. A prosperous heart is the result of living from Spirit’s overflow of love into our life. When we feel its irreplaceable nourishment, we know a wealth beyond comparison. Learning about the lives of the greatest lovers of humankind, we see that they were awake in the awareness of Spirit as the Source of life’s inherent goodness. We all measure prosperity in a way unique to ourselves, but the common denominator is Love, and love births generosity of the heart.

Loving greetings and welcome to the month of July wherein we celebrate freedom and independence. Certainly we can all relate to the outer definition of these words, but what about their more profound meanings in terms of our awareness of ourselves as individualized expressions of Spirit, free as Spirit is free, awake as Spirit is awake?

The topic on July 23, 2017, was The Secret of Prosperous Living, Part I. Most often we relate to prosperity as equaling the sum total of our net worth, our outer material riches. But doesn’t that seem to be a limited view? For example, if we were to total our inner wealth, it would include many other aspects—the wealth of love in our lives, health, creativity, generosity, compassion. It just might be that the secret of prosperous living begins with growing our inner wealth, which prepares us for outer riches.

Loving greetings and welcome to the month of July wherein we celebrate freedom and independence.

The topic on July 16, 2017, was You Are the Channel. By maintaining an open and receptive consciousness, we assure the inflow of Spirit’s guidance and our ability to channel it into all aspects of our lives. We all get stuck at times, and when we do, that is the time to deliberately take a “prayer pause” and remind ourselves of what we know to be true about our unbroken connection to Spirit, to remember that the channel is blessed by what flows through it.

Belief, Believer, Believed – July 9, 2017

At the Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles, you will hear relevant messages, by Rev. Pam MacGregor, that you can apply to everyday life.

Loving greetings and welcome to the month of July wherein we celebrate freedom and independence. Certainly we can all relate to the outer definition of these words, but what about their more profound meanings in terms of our awareness of ourselves as individualized expressions of Spirit, free as Spirit is free, awake as Spirit is awake? To support us in our individual answer to this question, our theme of the month is Our Inheritance of Independence.

The topic on July 9, 2017, was Belief, Believer, Believed. There is That within you which has been a believer long before you began walking the path that teaches the power of belief and manifesting what is believed. If this were not our inheritance as individualized expressions of Spirit, we could not manifest in tangible form the word we speak unto the great Law of Life. The work is about growing belief into an unquestionable knowing, even before we speak it.
