Racial Justice

Racial Justice

There is only one mind, God.

There is only one source, God.

There is only one life,

And that is life as a Spiritual Being, as a Loving Being.

 

This universe is the glory of God.

It is a moving, flexible, fluidic creation.

It is alive with life, abundance and all the richness of God.

 

 I express the deep knowledge that God is within me

And every individual is inseparably one with the infinite presence and power.

We all come from the same source.

 

I now speak my word for myself and for all,

As I activate the Law of justice.

I believe that I am judged by the content of my character.

I strive for a world where all oppressive chains are removed.

I affirm that we are all fighting for recognition as free humans in society.

My world is as big as I make it.

Taken in my totality, I transcend questions of race, gender, religion, age, wealth or appearance.

On a level playing field, the chains of injustice are removed.

I am my soul, and I allow my soul to evolve.

 With a grateful heart, I express overwhelming thankfulness

For more justice, more love, more joy and more power in my life

As I release my word into the action of the Law to be manifest in form as it is already know in mind.

And so it is. Amen

Florida Shooting Victims

Florida Shooting Victims

Let’s take this moment to invoke the Presence of Spirit.

 It’s goodness, its light, its consciousness and its atmosphere of peace.

 There is only one mind, one Source, and one life,

 And that is life as a Spiritual Being, as a Loving Being.

 This universe is the glory of God. It is a moving, flexible, fluidic creation.

 It is alive with life, abundance and all the richness of God.

 I express the deep knowledge that God is within me, and we are all inseparably one with the infinite Presence and Power.

 I affirm that we all come from this one source.

 I now speak my word for myself and for all,

 As I align myself with the principle of compassion for the Florida shooting victims.

I affirm that I live in a community where the humblest and the weakest person can enjoy the highest civil, economic and social rights as the most powerful possess.

I affirm that the cost of liberty is less than the price of repression.

I acknowledge that a friend encourages my voice and my right to grow.

I affirm that justice everywhere is a threat to injustice anywhere.

I strive to make submission to violence difficult for those who may attempt it.

I seek to equip every child, youth, churchgoer, and any other possible victim with the cultural armor of meaning, faith and love.

I seek freedom from fear for all,

And I resist any attempt to diminish individual power.

 I let this recognition flow through my entire consciousness.

 I let it reach down into the very depths of my being.

 I rejoice in this realization, knowing that I possess the vitality of the Infinite.

 I accept an awakened consciousness in every moment of my life.

 I trust myself, the process and God.

 I place my reliance in the Power, the Presence and the Perfection of God.

 So, it is with a grateful heart, that I express overwhelming thankfulness for peace, meaning, faith and love for the victims of the Florida shootings.

 And so it is. Amen.

Passion

PASSION

There is only one mind, God.

There is only one source, God.

There is only one life,

And that is life as a Spiritual Being, as a Loving Being.

 

This universe is the glory of God.

It is a moving, flexible, fluidic creation.

It is alive with life, abundance and all the richness of God.

 

 I express the deep knowledge that God is within me

And every individual is inseparably one with the infinite presence and power.

 

I now speak my word for myself and for all,

As I activate the Law of Passion.

 

I affirm that passion is what the sun feels for the earth,

And passion is what Spirit feels for me.

Passion is the gesture, the embrace, the exchange, the risk, the reach, the smile, the kiss, the power, the gift, and the thoughtfulness of God.

I wake up every morning exhilarated and go to bed saying thank you for the gift of this incredible day.

Passion is intoxicating, invigorating, soothing and sensuous, magical and mystical.

I release self-abuse, self-loathing, self-deception, self-pity, self-serving, and self-immolation.

I know that I was conceived in passion, born in passion and die in passion.

Living in the moment keeps me close to God.

I am my soul, and I allow my soul to evolve.

 

With a grateful heart, I express overwhelming thankfulness

For more passion, more love, more joy and more power in my life

As I release my word into the action of the Law.

And so it is. Amen
