Unity of Wimberley

The Grateful Heart

Author Eric Butterworth writes that "giving thanks is an important state of consciousness that keeps [us] in an awareness of oneness with divine flow."  This week, we expand our understanding of gratitude as a powerful and transformative spiritual tool.  Put another way, "In everything give thanks.  An attitude of gratitude is most salutary and bespeaks the realization that we are already in heaven."  (Rev. Dr. Ernest Holmes, author and founder of The Science of Mind.)

Time, Treasure & Talent Show

Here at Unity of Wimberley, we are lucky to have many active and thriving teams and groups in which you may find meaningful ways not only to contribute o the life of our community and beyond, but also to enjoy rich relationships with others as you satisfy your urge to serve.  This Sunday, you will hear from some of our team leaders who will share what calls them to demonstrate God-in-self, and the rewards of doing so.  This is a unique opportunity for our community to see each other in a different light, and to explore our personal urge to be part of something greater than ourselves.

The Practice of Thriving

Catherine Ponder, in The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity, said, "God's rich supply is all around you universally, as well as innately within you, as talents, abilities, and ideas longing for expression."

Giving Up & Getting Clear

This Sunday, March 10th, marks the start of the Lenten season.  Most often when we think of Lent we think about it as traditionally being the season of giving up poor habits or luxury items during the 40 days before Easter.  This Sunday we will explore how Unity views the season of Lent as being a time of deep spiritual healing and self-reflection that is necessary to prepare ourselves for new birth into our next highest self!

Good for your Circulation

Like breathing out and breathing in, we're continuously immersed in the flow of Life whether we're paying attention or not.  If you often find it challenging to manifest the good you seek, look no further than a few simple spiritual aerobic exercises to get things moving!

The Gardener

Who are you, really?  There is a distinction between the "self" with whom you identify in your everyday life (personality), and the eternal "Self" that is eternally a part of the Divine (individuality).  One of the most effective ways in which we can begin to know our Self and allow it to express more completely and consistently is through contact with God as we seek spiritual understanding.  

Tools for the Garden

Just as a garden needs weeding and cultivation to produce its beauty, so do our mind and its conditioned responses require cultivation and attention to weed out thoughts that do not serve our higher good.  There are powerful tools available to us to "dig out" even the most stubborn thoughts!  Using Lessons in Truth, we will identify those tools for our immediate use.  

What Goes Around

In New Thought, we learn and study the Principle that our thoughts are creative.  From health to finances to gossip and fear we know that "where our attention goes, energy flows" to create "more of" in our human experience.  Wouldn't it follow that we'd want to make sure our thoughts are going where we really want them to?

Divine Oneness

The greatest comfort that we have is knowing that we are forever one with Spirit, our source of life, love and inspiration.  By extension, we are one with all others and all life.  How shall we extend loving kindness and receive it without reservation?  How will our community identify itself to the larger one?  

Divine Design

Now that you're "mastering" the Law of Mind Action and the creative process, how do you respond when life changes the plan you thought you had in place?  Is it you, or is it Spirit?  The questions has only one answer, but it still puzzles us at times.
