2011 Emergence conference Prayer

 

This is my gift to the Conference, which you may feel free to share with all on your mailing list.
 
I look within
 
8,6,8,6
                       
                        I look within to know my Life
                        As perfect, whole and pure;
                        Within the everlasting Arms
                        My way is steadfast, sure.
 
                        When error would present itself
                        As Truth to claim my sight,
                        I wholly look to God alone
                        To set my vision right.
 
                        When sickness, sin, or death would claim
                        My joy, and make me fear,
                        I turn my thoughts to Christ
                        And feel Love’s presence here.
 
                        When envy, greed or strife would turn
                        My thoughts to lack or pain,
                        I turn to Mind, my Consciousness,
                        And balance comes again.
           
                        I follow the Great Ones along
                        The Path to future bright;
                        These labored long on earth below
                        To conquer darkened night.
 
                        Forever free to learn and grow,
                        In oneness, Life, with Thee,
                        The earth my classroom, Heaven my Home,
                        My peace, a surety.

You‘ve Always Had The Power… – YouTube - youtube.com

Like Dorothy, you have always had the power to return "home 

Chicago’s Oprah Winfrey continued to share one of her favorite quotes from the 1939 MGM film classic "The Wizard of Oz" during her final show episodes.
"You’ve always had the power" is the reassuring quote Glinda, the Good Witch of the North tells Dorothy at the movie’s conclusion.
Of course, Glinda was referring to Dorothy’s wish to go home to Kansas. But Oprah’s take on the phrase is equally applicable, as a way to remind others that they can accomplish anything with the power of believing and perseverance that comes from inside.
Oprah is just one of many famous fans of "The Wizard of Oz."

Pilate – Human rights & Divine love

 
Pale in the presence of his own momentous question, ‘What is Truth,’ Pilate was drawn into acquiescence with the demands of Jesus enemies.  Pilate was ignorant of the consequences of his aweful decision against human rights and divine Love, knowing not that he was hastening the final demonstration of what life is and what the true knowledge of God can do for man.

IT GETS BETTER: SEATTLE MEN’S CHORUS & SEATTLE WOMEN’S CHORUS

 
 Expecting good, knowing its source is in God, frees us from depression, stress, and despair. It enables us to receive God’s good thoughts, His unerring and perfect direction.
 

Mary Baker Eddy, speaking from vast personal experience, once said to a church congregation: “Remember, thou canst be brought into no condition, be it ever so severe, where Love has not been before thee and where its tender lesson is not awaiting thee. Therefore despair not nor murmur, for that which seeketh to save, to heal, and to deliver, will guide thee, if thou seekest this guidance” (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, pp. 149–150).
