2010 Plunge into Favor

Plunge into your greatness with more vim and vigor than ever before knowing the Essence within you is of God and is your vital life force. It is this which provides the raw materials for our creative mentality and endeavors.

Only by getting still, and letting go of all thoughts of lack, unworthiness and negativity can we really know that we have all that we need right here in the moment. Take a deep whiff of the Living and Pure Spirit which breaths us all and moves us all and activates ...yes...us all. God does not favor one over the other. We walk in favor when we identify with the qualities and character of our Source. This is the truth of our beingness. The more that we recognize that we are one with God, the more we are consequently fed mentally, spiritually, and physically the Essential Substance that lies back of all life's endeavors.

Yep! Highly favored are we! ... but one has to know who one is to know the favor.

Our charge in life is to plunge into the divine favor that is infinite and all pervasive good. That means, this good is within and all around us. Until we look within and spend some time there, listening to the Divine's inner and personal message to us; we will have difficulty taking the plunge into favor. But, when we get still and listen, we will find that not only are we here to take the plunge, but we are here to do it because it fortifies and blesses the greater good of all spiritual/human beings. We are not here for selfish and self-centered reasons. The whole body is always the concern of the Lord (Divne Law -God in action).

"...All things work together for good of them that love the Lord (the Law --God in Action). But the responsible part of that scripture is "for those who love the Lord and are called unto His purpose" We are called unto a purpose; let us walk by faith in the awareness that our time is now because there is no other time.

Get still, (meditate) and learn of God's purpose for your life. We are here to fully express greatness and excellence which is of our true nature; rather than spew out the lies that we have allowed to poison our minds as learned by the external world. This is what God is - EXCELLENCE. There is nothing mediocre in or about God; only in those small limited minds which are not aligned with Truth and the Will or Way of the Divine Mind.

Come on...get aligned; take the 2010 plunge. We are the excellence of God in expression and in action or we are the expression of a lie. It's all about you! It is our choice as to with what we fill our minds and allow to be expressed through our behavior; either the qualites of Divine Mind or the lies of the world. It is our choice.

You've tried everything else now try God-Essence-within you.

Love and Light always,
humbly,
Rev. Ethel

Awaken to The Power Within

Namaskar,

Many people have their specific church related 40-day Lenten programs that they follow; for those who do not, or even for those who may want to experience an additional Lenten tradition, I invite you to join me in a 40-day experience to touch and agree and dedicated to cultivating our true and authentic potential -- our Christ–consciousness. The “Christ-in-me” is more than a mind-set it must become our reality.

It is 2010 and this marks the beginning of a new era and a major change in what I am thinking and feeling.. I don’t know about you but I need a makeover. The year began with a startling but clear awakening for me and many others with whom I have spoken. I have known and said for many years, “If it is to be…it is up to me” but somehow this new dawning is more surreal, almost, as if I were in a dream yet daunting things were actually happening in my experiences.

I know that the only way I can do anything is with God through Christ in me my hope of glory. I have had a major shake-up, which translates in my life affairs as a “wake-up” and filters right down to what I am or am not doing with the life with which I have been blessed.

Prior to the telecast, go to www.unity.org/lent to download the free Pdf copy of 40 Days to an Awakened Christ-Consciousness. The first telecast will begin Ash Wednesday, 2/17/2010 at 5:00pm (CST) and will be casted weekly, at 3:00pm (CST) on Thursdays thereafter until Easter.

To participate by phone Call: (347) 857-3508. (Note: this is not a toll free number, long distance charges may apply) No pass code needed.

“…If two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” ~ Matthew 18:19-20

Lord's Prayer - An Interpretive View - What does it mean to you?

“My creative source, which is all-knowing spiritual reality, wholly be thy recognition. Let this awareness of myself be experienced at the personal level, as it is when I am aware that I am one with God. Provide for my wholeness each day the vision of who I am. Release my consciousness when it has not been able to see that I am one with God as I release others who have been unable to know who they are. Lead us not into the temptation of accepting an identity apart from our divinity and deliver us from contradiction and dishonesty. For the kingdom of love, the power of love, and the glory of the love, is the I Am of all beings.” by Walter Starcke, It’s All God

Marvel at the Living Spirit!

It is a beautiful, no…simply marvelous day. Well, what is it to marvel about… You might ask; since it is snowing outside and has been since last evening? The roads are slushy and the clouds give an overshadowing appearance. Those effects do not have to change or impact our affect [a Psychological term meaning a feeling, or emotion as distinguished from cognition, thought or action]. That is the marvelous news and the perfected blessing of the day…indeed of the moment. The LORD is our Shepherd, not the extraneous appearances which we sometimes have allowed to dictate our lives. We vow now to stop giving up control and personal responsibility of our thoughts and our feelings to the appearances and outside factors that have no essential meaning or purpose in our lives.

Today is the day that the LORD has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Standing in the snow I met one of my favorite people in the world. Tony a city worker who helps us keep the city clean by collecting the garbage each week, not only does his job well, but he does it with the grace of God expressing through every pore of his being. We stood in the snow just appreciating the good in the moment; appreciating the fact that we were outside in this weather, able to feel the cool, crispness and the refreshment of the air that comes with winter and provides a jolt of revitalization in the body. We were appreciating God’s love for giving us the beauty of the snow so white and clean and providing for us the mechanism of a job to go to which helps us pay for the things we want in this physical world. We were thanking God for the ability to see snowflakes and to have one another in which to touch and agree. We hardly see one another because of our work schedules but when we do Spirit meets Spirit. That’s what I call “making true love”. True love making has absolutely nothing to do with sex and if you don’t know that kind of love then maybe the sexual relations you may be having actually have little or nothing to do with love at all. Don’t get it twisted and stop being fooled.

Get Up! Marvel at the day…the evening…your smile! Make God proud that you have been chosen to be in this good day!

A New Song

God's unfailing love causes us to sing a new song...one of happiness and personal responsibility. The joy of the Lord (the Law of being) instills a love and enjoyment of life in me and in anyone who captures the vision and allows the reality of God to express through them. I desire the goodness and richness of God for all people and I pray for those who do not know joy, to right now be struck by a bolt of shear, unadulterated Love which can only be issued through the Spirit of our merciful God of Truth, Life, Love, Wisdom, Power, Beauty, Peace, Joy and the like.

There is a certain joy in practicing responsibility for our self. It is real freedom and It means we have to do what it takes to make our life work, blaming nobody else for anything but moving onward and Spiritward. If in our doing, we recognize that a power greater than ourselves walks with us and empowers us each moment to do whatever it is that we have been given the "choice" to do; then we know it is imeperative and wise to recognize this energizing Force as much as we can and every chance we can. Walk with God and know God walks with us.

Be anxious for nothing. God is always at work; inspiring and delighting in all that will allow the Living Spirit to show forth through their character. Doing so reflects glorification in truth, peace, beauty, joy, and wonderment. Keep releasing that which does not glorify the truth of God which is also the truth of each woman, man and child. Be still and know God in you. Sure we all have such to release but Christ in us is our hope of glory and we are made to achieve victory. Let's Honor God's gifts inside of us.

To all eyes reading this post, I not only wish you joy; I pray it in the Living Spirit and trust in the Power that can make it so.
Amen.
Love and Genuineness,
Rev. E.

La! La! La! The Melody of Friendship Blossoming

This is a message from an inspiring spiritual connection, and praying partner with whom our friendship is blossoming and to whom I sent one of my favorite tunes.

Dear Ethel,
Thank you very much! I deeply appreciate this gift, but
more than all...our spiritual connection.
The meaning of music is
not to be found in a music book.
To find the meaning of music, we have
to listen to music -and even then,
we may not be able to put its meaning
into words.
Music has a meaning that words are often inadequate to
express.
Frienship is like music.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Elena

Indeed our spiritual connection is the most valuable friendship builder and stabilizer. First, it is our knowing and then holding to the truth within that helps us all overcome the divisiveness caused by petty, hateful, envious and fear-based lies that we have accepted about ourselves and others.

When we learn who we really are as divine beings; and hold to the truth that we are all offspiring of the one and only Divine Creative Life Force, we begin to understand that all any of us has to do is to get still and tap into the essence of God within us.

We can then realize that each one of us are here for a magnificent reason and that we are the channels throug h which the glorification of God is to be and can be expressed; that each one of us is here to express the divinity from inside of us. Then the need to fret or fear being upstaged or downplayed by one another can cease to exist because in reality there is no reason for it...in reality it has no purpose. However it will continue to exist as long as we keep thinking that we are separate from our Creator and therefore separate from one another which cultivates divisiveness. Let's refuse to partake in the games of divisiveness and affirm the ever-loving, all-wise and ever-embracing and uniting power of divine Love to teach us who we are as loving children who are created for one purpose -to channel divine energy, but having multiple jobs and responsibilities which are to be represented through each one of us.

God is purposeful. May we learn what we need from one another to move on to higher levels in our understanding and awareness to consequently show forth love and plentitude in our demonstration of the wonderment of life.
Blissful blessings always in all ways desired,

Rev. Ethel

1 a.m.- Tom Braxton

Just in a mode of thankfulness I listen to the sweet vibration that comes through the divine expression known as Tom Braxton. Hope it touches you as deeply as it touches me and we all can relish in the goodness of life this moment; in the name of real love and causing us all to know ourselves in a more loving way. When we love ourselves on the real, we can love others genuinely and freely. Love one another as God loves us is our instruction.
Blissful blessings in the breeze!

Marcus Miller - Higher Ground [Live Leverkusen 2007]
