Service

I joyfully serve others.

Unity’s Fifth Basic Principle simply says, “Knowing the spiritual Truth is not enough, it must be lived.”

I intentionally develop my spiritual life by reading, studying, praying and meditating. I know spiritual understanding is not enough, so I am an active part of my spiritual community. I find ways to joyfully serve others.

Any act of kindness is a form of service. It might be volunteering to help the poor and it also could be mowing a neighbor’s lawn, letting someone ahead in the grocery line, or carpooling with children. Service ranges from full-time care giving to something as simple as listening. Anything I do to make life a little easier for another is service. I see opportunities to serve as soon as I look for them. Service is a spiritual practice.

I joyfully serve others.

Inner Peace

I am Divine; I am at peace as peace flows from me now.

When I feel stressed by the busyness of my day, I remember peace is as close as my next thought and feeling. No matter what is happening around me, I can always choose to experience deep inner peace. Finding peace requires no strenuous effort but only remembering my innate Divinity is changeless and always at peace.

Exhaling all tension, I inhale and center myself in the awareness of peace within me. Inner peace calms my thoughts and emotions while relaxing my body. With each breath, peace fills my awareness and radiates from me. I continue to draw from this deep well of peace within me as I resume my daily activities. I have renewed energy and a quickened awareness of my Infinite Presence.

I am Divine; I am at peace as peace flows from me now.

Rut roh! I copied and pasted the Absolute Word for July 28th by mistake.
There is a saying I heard while I lived in Puerto Rico, “Slow down, we are in a hurry!” At moments like this, I feel how this saying rings true.
I am pasting the one for the 21st below. I will resend the one for the 28th next Monday.
Apologetically, Paul

Time Enough

I have time, Faith, and Strength enough to do

what I know is mine to do.

I look forward to what I plan to accomplish today.  First, as I center into the awareness of my Divinity, the peace passing all understanding quiets my mind, calms my emotions, and relaxes my body.

Second, in prayer, I claim and quicken my Divine Faculties of Love, Wisdom, Understanding, and Order. Then, I knowingly organize my time in ways that allow me to fulfill important commitments, contribute to my own and others’ spiritual growth, and provide the physical activity and rest my body needs. Living from my Divine Identity, I also recognize and release activities that do not contribute to my highest good.

I guide myself as my day unfolds using my Divine Faculties of Wisdom, Understanding, Will and Order. I affirm: 

I have time, Faith, and Strength enough to do

what I know is mine to do.

Pray with Others

I faithfully see the Truth underlying any situation.

When I’m asked to pray with others, I look beyond their story of their lives. Instead I discern the fundamental Attributes beneath appearances to find the sacred essence of each situation.

I know each of us is expressing these fundamental Divine Qualities that we are.  I affirm that others are always activating Divine Qualities like patient Strength, healing Life, harmonizing Love, prospering Wisdom, and so much more. I see the Divine Nature of every person and know they are accessing and using all the fundamental Attributes that their Divinity is!

Seeing these deeper Truths allows me to stand firm in faith as I pray with others. No matter how sad or discouraged they may feel, I pray, knowing their innate Strength, Life, Love and Wisdom.

I faithfully see the Truth underlying any situation.

Guidance

I guide my thoughts, words and actions using Divine Love, Wisdom, and Understanding.

How empowering it is to know that every Principle God is, I Am. I am always using Them to express my life, my body, my personality and even in the most ordinary decisions and events! I become more aware and adept at using my Divine Nature as I become more conscious of Its Principles.

I release any limiting thoughts and beliefs as I deliberately attune my mind and heart to the constant presence of the Divine Principles making up my Beingness. My awareness of Omnipresent Principles becomes deeper and stronger.  I intentionally rely on my Principles of Love, Wisdom and Understanding to guide my thoughts, words and actions. As I fully realize unfailing God-Power, I go forward with renewed faith, vision, and purpose.

I guide my thoughts, words and actions using Divine Love, Wisdom, and Understanding.
