Treat Our Children Well

Dear Friends,
Jesus the Christ said, “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
(Matthew 25:40)New International Version)
In these times of government separating children and families, we each need to look into our hearts and decide how we want to show up in the world. We know we are all on a spiritual journey whether we know it or not. It does not matter whether we are Republican or Democrat, rich or poor, a different color or faith. What does matter is how we treat our fellow human beings, our brothers and sisters of all ages. I believe the only thing we are required to do to move forward in spiritual transformation is to LOVE and to put LOVE in Action. We must care about the welfare of others regardless of race, customs, country or faith. Children behind cages is the opposite of LOVE. How can we treat our young ones like that? How can we allow our government do this? No man is an island. How we treat our immigrant brothers and sisters will boomerang back to us. It is the Law of Karma, the Law of Reciprocity. What we do will always come back to us in greater force. Not allowing people to come into our country seeking asylum from gang/cartel violence and threats to their lives is like turning them away from an island sanctuary back to the sea of sharks. It brings back the horror of turning away ships escaping Nazi Germany. The people on board were forced to return and were ultimately killed.
“Do unto others, what you would have others do unto you.”
“Do unto others as they would want done to them”
Where did we stop living and teaching the Golden Rule and the Platinum Rule?
Time to refresh our conscience and consciousness.
Let us treat our children well. All children of All ages are All our responsibility.
Loving Actively,
Abigail

Pray Affirmatively

Dear Friends,

Too often we forget, the power of prayer.
I am not referring to begging God for something
or making bargains with God…I’ll do this if you do that etc.
Prayer is the instant connection we have when we acknowledge God as all good and the Source of our being. We are the essence of God and God is All of us. As we speak our word, there is an instantaneous connection and response. There is a knowingness in God, in you, in me. As Eric Hansen sang, “Our Thoughts are Prayers…”When we are in need, all we have to do is recognize God already KNOWS what we have need of.
Before they call, I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear”
(English Standard Version Bible)
We cannot hide our thoughts from God, for we are Spirit and prayers are stating our truth, our faith, our acceptance that what we affirm to be ours, is ours, and/or something better. Knowing the Divinity we are, takes away the fear of lack, limitation or unworthiness.
God never limits us. We limit ourselves.
God never wants us to be lacking. Our words and our beliefs create our lack.
God never wants us to feel unworthy? God created YOU and God is NOT unworthy.
Time  to restate your prayers.
Trust you are a Spiritual Being having a human experience.
Be clear in your focus and vision of what you want.
Have faith your affirmative prayers are heard, acted upon and outcome already done.
We are co-creators with God, creating our life and our experiences.
The more we say we “don’t have” the less we will have.
The more we say we Have Everything we need and more, then it will be so.
Change your thoughts and words from “I want, to I have,’ and ‘I can’t to I can!”

A famous quote by Dr. Ernest Holmes is,
“Change your Thinking, Change Your Life.” Try it. It works!

Affirmatively,
Abigail

Truth, We are ONE

Dear Friends,
Do you stray? In thought? In word? In deed? I believe we all do at some time.
However, no matter how much we seem to be “off course” we can always return to the Truth of our being. In essence, we are ONE, we are Love. We are One with and as God and we are ONE with and as each other. We are One with those we love and One with those we don’t like at all. Whether we like someone, agree or disagree with him or her, we are still ONE and LOVE Reigns in all. That is our Spiritual Truth.
Ernest Holmes (EH), founder of Religious Science says:
“I believe in the incarnation of the Spirit in all, and that we are all incarnations of the One Spirit.”
“I believe in the eternality, the immortality, and the continuity of the individual soul, forever and ever expanding.”
These two quotes are part of our basic beliefs. Everyone is an incarnation of Spirit.
Everyone’s soul WILL forever expand into greater good, greater opening, greater awareness and greater love.
At this time it is extremely important for us to be the bringers of LIGHT & LOVE, and to be a safe haven where people can express opinions without harsh judgement. I know many people whose families are split politically and cannot even talk with one another. As Light Beings we need to be the listener. We don’t have to agree with everyone, we just need to listen, understand and love them.
Can we stand with them and continue to believe “in the unity of all life, and that the highest God and the innermost God is one God,(EH)” in us, in them.
When we do this, our loving, oneness energy will ripple out and affect the world.
We are here to change the world. The world is waiting for us. Changing the world, is first changing ourselves, our thoughts, words and deeds.
May loving kindness be in your thoughts, words and deeds today.
Loving Oneness,
Abigail

 

I Love Mondays

Dear Friends,
I love Mondays!  I know you have heard many people say,   “I love Fridays” or TGIF.  Mondays for me is a chance to “Begin Again.”  It is my beginning of the week.  This is the day I do a longer prayer and meditation time, a full exercise yoga routine, a long wonderful walk and a slower time on our labyrinth.  It feels like I am starting over.
All the past week is  the past week.  I re-evaluate my life, my consciousness and decide how I want to change or continue this week.  It is also a letting go of any negative emotions that may have stirred me up from the previous week. To me it is
freeing to know I can begin again and start a new day/week fresh and free.  I remember the words I heard and wrote on my ‘white stone’ during our January Burning Bowl and White Stone Ceremony.  It was/is “River Flows.”  This reminds me of how the River of God’s Divine Wisdom, Love and Intelligence flows through me all the time. It never stops. When I feel frustrated, stressed or irritated they are emotions blocking my Good.   I stop and realize  the GOOD of GOD is always flowing within me.  I AM GOD as me.  I AM an Emissary of the Divine.  Being in that state of mind truly changes my consciousness, which changes my day, and stimulates creative ideas I can happily implement throughout the week.
Maybe your week begins on Tuesday, as  many clergy take off Mondays due to a heavy weekend schedule.   Maybe you work 4 days on, 3 days off.  However your work week looks, to know you can begin again with a new view, a new perspective on life is joyful and fun.
Remember you can “begin again” at any time, any moment, any day and
EVERY DAY.  No need to wait for your Monday.
 
Breathe deeply and allow GOD’s Good to flow though you now 
and begin again.
