The Intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.  We have created a society that honors the servant and forgotten the gift.”
-Albert Einstein

Dear Friends,
This wonderful quote by Albert Einstein, math and science genius, reminds me of the New Thought saying,
“Love leads the Way
Law makes the way happen.”
At this period of time in our history, science and spirituality are finding common ground.  Intuitively the Avatars and Mystics have always known our intuition is the guiding light of our being. When it feels right, we speak our word from our heart -mind into Law, and the way opens up for us.
Today, I ask you where is your  intuitive mind guiding you to do, to be, to go, to act?  What is stopping you?
Remember when God calls you, God will open the doors for you, maintain and sustain you in the spirit calling of your heart and mind intuition.  Intuition is God speaking directly to you.
TRUST in it.  Let go of any fear, uncertainty, the ‘what if’s’ you may be thinking.
TRUST in the guidance.  Say YES to It.
SPEAK your word (rational mind) into  the LAW of Mind and the right and true path for you will be made
perfectly clear.
Our intuitive mind and heart are our sacred gifts from our Creator. Our rational mind is our servant and when we speak words with reverence, trust and certainty, we Trust the Source Mind to bring forth the Divine Outcome that is for our highest good.   Intuition is a sacred gift. Words spoken into the Law is a sacred gift.
Use both well.

Dear Friends,

I love looking at all the beautiful trees on my morning walks. Lately I noticed the birch trees were shedding their outer bark and underneath was this new and very smooth white bark.   What a wonderful example of shedding what no longer serves us.  Letting go of any negativity that is layered on top of our true God selves.

The trees looked free and happy swaying in the wind.  We too can be free and happy when we let go of what no longer serves us:

unforgiveness,

judgement

gossip

victim attitude

….you add yours.

Underneath it all is our True God Conscious Self, always ready willing and available to emerge through the darkness of our consciousness and BE the light, smooth loving spirit that we are intended to be.

I believe our hearts were blown wide open by Pope Frances’ visit this past week. His words were kind, and yet he made us look at our social and justice system and how we can improve it, by taking care of and respecting others of all faith, cultures, creeds and affiliations.

All people are God’s people. All people are God in Expression. All people are sacred.  Let us truly practice the Golden and the Platinum rule in our lives wherever we go and whomever we are with. The more we do that, the more the unwanted layers peel away and we shed what no longer serves us.  We become and behave as God, in all, as all because God is all.

Dear Friends,

We had an excellent workshop on Saturday.   Women empowering themselves and then empowering others as well as men empowering women, are actions which will change the world.  We saw women who broke the “rules” to make change happen. We heard about women who faced challenges and stepped forward to complete the task, take responsibility, use the skills of collaboration and consensus to lead.   We know whatever is pulling at your heart strings, you have the capability to do it.

“God calls the unequipped, then equips the called!”  

As the quote says above, whatever is calling you, go for it, open a new door, make a new path.

Muriel Strode said,

“Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

 Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life
–Omar Khayyam

Dear Friends,
My morning walks are not only nourishing, they are Divinely inspiring.  One morning I was enthralled by the beauty of God’s works and I stopped by a spectacular spider web. It was huge, intricate and stunning as the sun sparkled on the web.  I had to look at it deeply and take a picture.  I really wanted to Capture the Moment!  On my walks I do set an intention to be alert for God signs, whispers, and gifts of glorious newness.  If I don’t, I will miss them.
When my children were little they were always so independent, which was great.  However, there were those moments when they came to me and just wanted to talk, show me something or to just sit on my lap.  No matter what I was doing, or how busy I was, I always stopped to capture the moment with them. Once they felt heard, nourished and listened to, they were off being independent again!  We must always make time to stop and capture the moment for love and well being or it will be gone.
•Give a loved one an unexpected hug and kiss.        …C the M
•Hug and kiss your kids and grand kids even when they are wet, dirty, muddy and joyful  from playing outside… C the M
•Look up at the sky and appreciate the clouds and all the formations they create…        C the M
•See a tree, climb it, talk to the Merlin in it. What does it tell you?  …C the M

            Set an intention to discover something new in your                         neighborhood.  Be open to discovery….

even if you are not sure what it is
Stop and Capture the Moment!

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor.
It’s to enjoy each step along the way.
-Wayne Dyer

Dear Friends,

We are beginning to leave the summer behind and embrace the newness of the Fall.  I can’t help thinking of Wayne Dyer, one of the icons of positive health, wholeness, prosperity and high consciousness. We honor him today for his love, wisdom and compassion for humanity.  His earth time is over and we know he is in the midst of embracing the newness and wonder of the other side.  I love his quote above.  I believe through his childhood and adulthood he kept dancing through it all. He found his secret to living a happy, purposeful and abundant life and was willing to share it with the world. Wayne, we know you are embraced in Divine Love as you continue your eternal journey.

We were at a friend’s memorial yesterday and we all celebrated the fun memories we had as well as the sad. We know this person too is moving forward on his forever life journey.

So, while we are still here in our earth life, let us take time to celebrate the life we have with our friends and family. Take the time to call, email, visit and express your love and appreciation while they are visible and within hugging reach.

Remember to laugh, dance and enjoy each step along the way.

“There is nothing more beautiful than someone who goes out of their way                      to make life beautiful for others.”

Dear Friends,

As many of you know I love my early morning walks. It is a wonderful time to be in touch with Spirit and all Spirit’s wonders; trees, flowers, sky, birds, bunnies and even a coyote once in awhile.  One day I felt a bit tired and didn’t  feel like walking, but I put on my shoes and went anyway. No mater which way I turned, right or left, I had to walk up a hill.   This particular morning it felt like hiking up a small mountain. Somehow I just kept going. As I continued, I seemed to feel better and picked up my speed.  Eventually I was walking down a hill and the thought occurred to me, life is a bunch of hills, going up and down.  The hills up are our challenges. When we reach the top, or begin to see the situation from a higher view, we feel better and  life gets easier. When we are  walking down the hill, life seems like it is going pretty well.  I know there have been experiences where we ask, “Why Me…???”  So the answer is also a question,  “Why Not You…!”  It is not the experience itself,  it is our reaction, and how we handle it in heart and mind, that is truly important. We are all here to learn, unfold spiritually, and transform consciousness.  All events, all people, all situations are part of the Divine Design to help us do just that!  So often after a challenging experience ( health, love, work, betrayal or hurt) we are in a position to HELP someone else.  Now we have a clearer vision, and perspective on our situation, and are better equipped to help someone else go through a similar experience.   The more we encourage and inspire others, the more we are encouraged and inspired as well.
We are all on this journey together.  We all go up and down those hills.

So put those shoes on and appreciate the walk, wherever it leads!

“If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.”
-African Proverb

Dear Friends,

I read the above quote in the August Science of Mind magazine and I immediately resonated with it.  I have and am serving on many boards and committees and have always found when we come together to work on a project or to find a solution, ALL ideas need to be honored at the table.  I believe in consensus and know when we all agree, there is 100% buy-in and cooperation.  It may take some time to get there, but once there, everything and every detail falls into place.

Just recently we finalized the Theme for the 2017 NAIN (North American Interfaith Network) Connect Conference which Dr. Steve is Chair.  We have had other meetings and emails going back and forth and the theme ideas were wide spread and inconclusive.   At this past meeting we knew we needed to really be clear and come to a decision on the theme.  We prayed, and walked the labyrinth asking what God’s Highest Divine Idea is for the conference.  Needless to say, all previous theme ideas were thrown out and a NEW one began to emerge. This was the Theme we could all agree on, and come to consensus with.

HARMONY: The Journey to Interfaith Understanding!

The 4 C’s:  Communication, Collaboration. Cooperation and Consensus is a beautiful process where everyone is heard and appreciated.  There is such JOY when we are all ONE in agreement.

Whatever committee you are on or leading, go for Divine Consensus and you will have a harmonious group of people all working for the highest good of all.

Peace and Blessings Always,

Rev. Dr. Abigail and Rev Dr. Steve
