Activating the Divine Creative Process

Hildegard of Bingen, the 16th century Christian mystic, spoke about "the green growing edge of our becoming," referring to how we are all meant to grow in our awareness and in our inner knowing as expanding beings. As we conclude our month of exploring the road for living in joy, we will bump up against that edge and expand it out a couple of feet.

Creating something amazing isn't necessarily easy. If it were, everyone would be doing it! But to live from God, as God, to God, it is our spiritual imperative that we be in the process of and making progress on our intentional creations. And, that is where our joy is found. So, perhaps you have raised your "upper limit," but still aren't feelin' the joy. Well, in that case, you just might really good at creating "safe problems." What are "safe problems?" Come Sunday and find out!

The profound and eye-opening answer to that question is (drum roll, please) . . . our "upper limit." What is our "upper limit?" It is the unconscious ceiling we put on our ability to truly reach for what we desire. When our upper limit kicks in (and it can be very, very sneaky), we squash our process and our progress of intentional creation, therefore, squashing our joy. Join us today as we take a look at the variety of ways in which our "upper limit" stops us in our tracks, so that we can break free from it, get busy creating and raise our joy meter!

This month we have recognized and aligned with our inner creative power to succeed, acknowledging that success is God-ordained. As we succeed, we prove the fundamental spiritual principle of our Science of Mind/Unity teachings: There is a power for Good in this Universe, and we can use it! And there is one other thing we do when we succeed. We make a difference in this world! Join us today as we bring our theme to a close with two game-changing success principles.

Today we amp up the energy of our work together by moving into the vibration of celebration, thanksgiving and appreciation. Come be prepared to expand your appreciation for yourself and others and to learn the power of "The Poker Chip Theory of Success"! Intrigued? Perfect. Come find out what it's all about.

Did you know that the average person has over 50,000 thoughts a day? And did you know that most of those thoughts are TO you ABOUT you and that 80% of them are negative? Those are startling statistics, aren't they? What would your life look like if you could make 80%, 90%, even 100% of those thoughts TO you and ABOUT you positive and life affirming? If you could (and we say you can!), you just might astound yourself at what you are capable of doing. Today, you will learn a practical way to transform yourself for success.

Thomas Edison once said, ""If we did all the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves." Today we lay the foundation for astounding ourselves by exploring Canfield's first two principles of experiencing a successful life. These principles probably won't be new to you, but we will look at them in a new and highly personal way. Be sure to be with us today – you just may be astounded!

"Today I am Expressing God's Love, Being God's Light and Living God's Truth" is a perfect affirmation for our ever-expanding relationship of living as One in the Mind of The Divine. Breaking into or exploring the book "The Shack" by William P. Young (and the subsequent movie) provides yet another platform to get clearer and go deeper into the Divine of our Being. It's time to release any distorted thinking, kick our emotional baggage to the curb and be what we came here to be . . . God's Light! By the time we meet April 30, give yourself the treat of having experienced the book or the movie – or both.

How do you see yourself being one of the "1,000 people" we spoke about on April 2? How will the blessing you received on Palm Sunday come alive in your life? How have you turned up your light as a result of our Easter experience together? We will explore these question (and more!) as we gather together to make the past weeks very, very personal.

As we explore the metaphysics behind Jesus' resurrection and ascension, we are invited into a renewed aliveness and a re-commitment to living a conscious, Spirit-filled life. And as we each begin anew with our personal renewal and re-commitment, we become beacons of greater light for the world. Come turn up your light with us on this beautiful and sacred morning.
