SUMMER GREETINGS!

...love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 19:19

What a beautiful season! Sunny skies, Flowers in the garden, voices of your children at play, visits from family, events filled with joy and elation. Vacations to places filled with God's wonders. Celebrations and sharing of life,  our greatest gift from God, our Father, Our Creator.

It has been a while since I wrote a Thank You column to God for the many blessings  in my life. My growing church family, My beautiful immediate family, and dear friends near and far. For the gift of guidance and wisdom  in my roles as Minister, Mother, Grandmother and always wife to my beloved. 

Whenever we open our minds and hearts to these others in our lives by giving of our joy and love we are touching them in a special way. This special form of love and giving opens our lives to receive an outpouring of love .. The love Jesus was referring to when He said, Love your neighbor as yourself. (Matthew 19:19).

Yes! there are many forms of Love received and given, There is Love between a parent and child, Grandparent and grandchild, The Love for a precious pet, The love between two people who share a deep commitment. The love for all humanity.

Each type of love touches us, Yet! the love that touches our hearts and lives in a way no other love can is the Love of God.  God's love is pure and unconditional and is ever flowing within us and around us.

Unity of Sachse Prayer GardenWhen I stand in the beautiful Prayer Garden of Unity of Sachse, It is and instant connection to God, and all the gifts I am blessed with, this Summer and always. The need to say Thank You Father overpowers me.

When I look upon the beautiful faces of the congregation, open and receptive to the energy of our amazing church. The need to say Thank You Father overpowers me. When I hold one of my family or friends in my embrace. The need to say Thank You Father overpowers me.

When I meditate on the blessing of freedom my country gives me, and those who have sacrificed  family and even their life for that freedom. The need to say Thank You Father overpowers me. Whenever health is a concern for myself or others, The awareness of the healing light of God fills my heart, mind and soul. The need to say Thank You Father overpowers me.

If you have become negative or discouraged, align yourself with the strong awareness of the unlimited power of God. At that very moment it is awaiting your acceptance. It is the time to pray these words, Thank You Father, Every need will be met.  Let these words become your food and drink, a living part of your thinking and feeling. Let them become so dominant that they come instantly to mind any appearance of  lack confronts you. Let them fill your awareness until they speak to you so clearly that no person or circumstance can drown them out.

When you need wisdom, the need will be met, when you need added patience, the need will be met, when you need greater understanding, love, guidance, healing or supply. The need to say Thank You Father will overpower you, and every need will be met.

Each time the beautiful flowers in the garden of life unfold  and open you to a new experience. When the wonders and blessings overpower the challenges of your life. The need to say Thank You Father will overpower you, and every need will be met.

I  invite all to join us each Sunday at Unity Church of Sachse, as we worship in gratitude for all that God is in our lives and in our world.

Blessings,

But Jesus beheld them and said unto them, with men this is impossible;
but with God all things are possible.
