Unity of Wimberley

The negative and positive Shadows in us point our way to the path of unconditional love. As we recognize our projections and embrace all that is good about us, we find it easier and more natural to extend our generosity and compassion to ourselves and others.

Our beautiful human minds love to organize, categorize and prioritize our feelings and experiences - even the heartfelt spiritual ones. Sometimes the art of simple observation is all we need for our emotional evolution.

Anyone identify with these lovely feelings? The only way past these all-too-human conditions is through them---but we’re not alone. Spirit provides illumination and comfort along the way.

“Full adulthood includes both psychological health and spirituality.” ---David Richo We begin our psychospiritual journey this month by exploring the difference between our human self and our spiritual Self. Our spiritual growth reveals unresolved areas of psychological health. Working in psychological modalities leads to greater spiritual growth. It is our path to wholeness and integrated maturity.

Freedom is an inside revelation of knowing who we are as children of God that gifts us a way of seeing and therefore a new way of being in our world.

Our words have more power than we realize! They have the ability to shape Divine Substance, thereby playing an important role in our lives and experiences. Are you conscious about what you say, or are you stuck in the same habitual words that victimize or disempower you? Do you know the difference between “I am” and “I AM”? Let’s focus on “watching our mouths” and what they say!

Spiritual principles are merely nice words with a good philosophy behind them---unless we apply them to our everyday thinking and actions. As we honor New Thought leaders during Black History Month, we examine the life and powerful teachings of Rev. Dr. Johnnie Colemon. And then we "work them!" We put into practice those principles that transform our lives.

Every Sunday, we affirm that, “There is only one presence and one power active in the Universe…” but how often are we paying attention to that old, nagging belief that God is a physical entity or person, somewhere out there – separate from us, just waiting to take us down if we don’t act right? This week, Kit Holmes dives into the first chapter of The Science of Mind textbook entitled “The Thing Itself” to shed some light on our beliefs about our truly Divine Nature.

What do we believe, as New Thought students? How do we fit into the world? How do we impact it with our beliefs and practices? How comfortable are you with more questions than answers?

Our lives are a journey to explore and experience Spirit. But how do we define the Infinite with our limited language? We will examine “The Three Os,” the nature of God, and the words that we use to express our relationship and experience with God.
