A heartfelt message from Rev. Linda Machesic on choosing faith over fear in a messy world, reclaiming faith as a spiritual superpower, and remembering that God’s good is everywhere, all the time.
When the world feels messy, noisy, and uncertain, how do we keep from being swallowed by fear? In this powerful message, Rev. Linda Machesic invites us to reclaim faith as a spiritual superpower—not as an old-fashioned religious word, but as a deep inner knowing that God is good, everywhere, all the time.
Drawing from the teachings of Charles Fillmore and Unity’s 12 Powers, Rev. Linda reminds us that faith is more than belief and more than trust. Faith is “the perceiving power of the mind, linked with the power to shape substance”—a rock-solid knowing at the very core of who we are. From there, she explores how we can choose faith over fear in a world that often feels “messy, messy, messy,” and how our conscious intention to be love, peace, and joy truly changes the atmosphere around us.
Rev. Linda also shares a moving personal story of her journey through an aggressive breast cancer diagnosis. Instead of going to “battle,” she chose to stand in faith, knowing that God’s good was already present and complete. That knowing shaped her decisions, her peace, and ultimately her healing.
The episode closes with a beautiful guided meditation on our multi-dimensional nature—inviting us to feel ourselves in our bodies, be present with loved ones in spirit, travel to our childhood home, into tomorrow with joy and gratitude, and then into oneness with nature. We return gently to the room grounded in the truth: God is everywhere, God is good all the time, and we are called to look for the good in every moment.
In this episode, you’ll explore:
- Why faith is not the same as belief or trust—and why it’s so much bigger
- How to love a “messy” world by seeing every challenge as an opportunity to shine your light
- Charles Fillmore’s classic definition of faith and what it means in daily life
- Unity’s understanding of faith as one of the 12 spiritual powers, anchored in the pineal gland
- The mustard seed metaphor—how even a tiny bit of faith can grow into something magnificent
- A real-life example of choosing faith over fear in the face of serious illness
- A guided meditation on being a multi-dimensional, spiritual being with infinite possibilities
May this message help you stand stronger in your own faith, feel “all right in the heat,” and remember that nothing is impossible when you know God’s good is present everywhere.
