Dear Friends,

I love reading the ‘Science of Mind’ magazine Daily Guides. This month they are written by Rev. Sally Robins, one of my favorite writers. She quoted Ernest Holmes, “Anything you can dream of is not too great for you to undertake, if it hurts no one and brings happiness and good into your life.”

Our dreams are important and meant only for us and we are never too old to have them, follow them and enjoy them. Rev. Sally shared a story of a lady who dreamed of becoming a Rockette and dancing on the stage of the Radio City Music Hall. She visualized herself up on stage having the time of her life!!!

Her dream came true. In 2023 she auditioned with 800 other women. “The difference was, that most of the women were in their teens and twenties. She was 92 years old!” Eighty years ago she couldn’t get to New York, however today she was there encouraging the other girls to continue following their dreams. She did not get selected, and she was thrilled she had the chance to audition. She never let go of that dream! Never too old, never too young.

In the November ‘Daily Word’ there was another story about a lady following her dream of getting her graduate degree overseas. She applied for a scholarship for study in the U.K. She had many supporters, and her professors wrote recommendations on her behalf. She was ready to give up everything she owned, quit her job and move there. She visualized, and affirmed daily. She was so grateful for all the people who supported her in her dream. Unfortunately she did not get accepted. She was distraught and upset with this outcome. After a talk with a friend who shared her harrowing life story, Jennifer realized happiness is not where you live, but how you live. She may not have gone overseas to study at that time, however that does not mean she won’t in the future. Right now she realized how grateful she was for her life, her journey, and all her supportive friends.

Our dreams are important and when we say “this or something better .”Be prepared for the something better! The Divine sees the whole picture of our lives, past, present and future. Trusting in something GREATER and BETTER than our dream a the time, can be a challenge.

Steve and I for years visualized us having an Interfaith building where we could hold meetings, classes and events. That never did happen. However looking back we realized we did not have the capital to invest, and with COVID hitting the world, we would not be able to meet there in person for several years.

It would have been a disaster financially. God had a better plan. We were able to use money to travel to 4 Parliaments of World Religions, North American Interfaith Network conferences, United Religions Initiative conferences and meet people from all over the world! If we were just having a San Diego building we may not have traveled the way we did. Because of ZOOM we have met people all over the globe, held conferences that included people from many countries. The 4 walled building may not have allowed us to expand as we did. Steve even created the World Interfaith Network where interfaith groups all over the world can reach out to each other. God had a better plan.

We are meant to have DREAMS. They are gifts of the heart. In our human form we may only see part of that dream. God sees the dream in its entirety. When we release our will and way, the Divine Flow is able to bring forth our highest and best dream.
