COMING HOME


"The best opportunity I've taken was to learn and understand the Oneness of life. It is to listen to my inner guidance and follow through. That always leads to success, healing and opportunities. When we recognize the truth of our being, Life fulfillls itself."
Dr. Maxine Leo

I love this quote. It was found in the March 23 Science of Mind Magazine. For me, I think it is a wonderful realization that Truth and Love and even pain can be found or resolved within. Coming home is the recoginiton of Spirit's inner guidance. 

So many people say that they have come to Our centers out of desperation or inspiration. Home is where we find our family, our togetherness, a like-minded soul to converse with, and to ask for affirmative prayers from.

Of course going to a conference, or going on a vacation always feels wonderful while we are there, but I have to admit that when it is all over, I have fond memories, but it is always a great feeling to sit on my own toilet and sleep in my own bed.

"When you really know that your inside world is the cause to your outside world and that you have full control over your consciousness of cause, you have true feeling of both thought and action."
Charles Barker,                              The Power is Within You         

What does coming home mean to you? If your childhood was difficult, it might have meant terror to you. To a couple with a new born baby, it might have meant a joy beyond belief. Whatever it means to you, may the joy you have now be shared with future generations.
In Love and Light,
Rev Sandy Smith

 WHY WORRY?                                          "Worry is the dark room where negatives are developed."                                                                 Raymond Charles Barker,      -- The Power of Decision Oh that hamster wheel late at night, just spinning with all of the things that happened yesterday, and the things on your calendar that you still need to accomplish. Will the wheel never stop? How do you dismount from the wheel?  I have discovered that worrying about the past is pointless. If it was an accident, I cannot undo what happened. I may think of it as a learning experience as to what I might do the next time to avoid an accident. As to the future, it hasn't happene...

 BE KIND TO YOURSELF "Things always get better. When you believe this, it becomes true. In the same way as you don't believe it doesn't get better, it doesn't get better."   Sandra Lindsey Smith, -- "Life's Garden Grows" Have you ever noticed how readily we rush to forgive other people for the minute, negative observations they say about themselves, but it is much more difficult for you to forgive yourself for the very same tiny thing you say about yourself? All the, "I AMs" that come out of our mouths are packed with the potential to show up in our lives exactly as they spring from our mouths. So, no: "I am so stupid"; "I can't get my hair to look right; or, "why do I even go in for this job interview, I can never express myself well under pressure" NO! Those are not the, "I AMs" that you want to spring from the depth of your soul. Instead, "I could have done that a different way", "...

  RELAX INTO THE FLOW "A good diet, refraining from excessive desires, and daily meditation all lead to peace of mind, and this peace of mind is beneficial."     Little Book of Inner Peace,    --The Dalai Lama What happens when a person is caught in a rip current in the ocean? A lifeguard would tell you to swim parallel to the shore and that would break the hold of the current. When panic sets in it is sometimes very difficult to remember that idea of relaxing enough to swim parallel to the shore. Isn't that true about the challenges that we go through in life? We get caught in the idea of events becoming more than we can handle. When it occurs to us, that  Spirit surrounds us, moves in, through, and as us, we can remember to relax into that Divine Presence, and a shift happens. It allows us to respond, rather than react to the situation. There are many times that I have been so focused on the problem, that it takes me a little time to say, "God...
