Tra La!

When I woke this morning I could hear “It’s May, It’s May .. the lusty month of May” (from Camelot) running though my head. What a delightful song! It’s about letting go of the shoulds, the musts, and the have-to’s and maybe being a bit naughty 

I loved being woken by this serenade from the Universe!! Definitely a better message than the dire, depressing ones we’ve been getting lately, which to me, all break down to one thing: “Be afraid, be deathly afraid.”

For years I have been saying that the old paradigm of ‘might makes right’ is dying. We are in the midst of its final death throes! These are such exciting times, where loving-kindness, compassion, unity and peace are revealing themselves in the forefront of our collective consciousness. While this new paradigm is getting more firmly grounded, we’re seeing the old one fighting for its life. Years from now, we will look back and wonder “Did we ever really think like that?”

Many of you in this teaching have experienced this in your own lives. I look back “before Religious Science” and wonder who was that who wrote those odd things in her journal? Who was that who was so concerned with what people looked like, and how much she had gathered, what labels were on things, and how well she fit in? I know that person was me, yet it seems like someone else!

Today, Rev. David Ault posted on FaceBook that he “is having a great laugh after seeing a bumper sticker that read, "Oh EVOLVE already!" Perhaps our global message for May?”
YES! YES! YES! We’re doing it anyway – Let’s do it consciously and have fun with it along the way!!
“Tra La – It’s May – the lusty month of May. Be a little bit naughty today !!


SPIRITUAL MIND TREATMENT

“Everything in life responds to the song of the heart. Ernest Holmes

Knowing the powerful Presence of The Divine that is absolutely everywhere, filled with all knowledge and unconditional love, is within me, I now open my heart, my mind and my whole being to experience today in all its fullness.

I declare I am ready to be showered with joy filled possibilities and Divine Gifts. I am open to receive all of Life’s blessings. I laugh in the face of negativity. I dance the evolutionary dance of Becoming. I am a radiant expression of the One Life!

For these and all the things I have received and for all the things I shall experience, I give thanks. I am so grateful to be alive, right here and right now. And so it is!!

What are you feeling right now? What ever it is, in this moment you are creating a resonance that is permeating your world, bringing back to you things, people and experiences that are like what you are feeling.

In 365 Science of Mind, Dr. Holmes establishes Joy as a focus for May. A poem by Victor Hugo is on the preface page to this month:

Be like the bird

That, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight,

Feels them give way beneath her and yet sings

Knowing that she hath wings.

Perhaps something in our life feels like it is giving way. Or we look at the general state of the world and feel afraid. How can we come into Joy? Our "wings" are the knowledge that, whatever the circumstances or appearances, whatever we are feeling is caused by our thoughts, and our thoughts can be changed.

Even greater than that, our "wings" are our awareness that behind and through everything is a Presence that is infinitely intelligent and unconditionally loving.

"Joy is the realization of the truth of oneness, the oneness of our soul with the supreme love." Rabindranath Tagore


SPIRITUAL MIND TREATMENT

I celebrate the feeling of joy I have as I recognize the Presence of God in everything. This Presence is within me, filling my heart and mind.

Knowing I am free to choose what I want - I choose Joy. I release all old feels that dragged me down. I declare everything in my life is made new by the joy I now feel. My health, my wealth, my relationships and my creativity are expanded in joy. There is nothing too hard for Divine Law. My life is filled with love and laughter and many good things. I celebrate Joy!

With a heart filled with gratitude, I let go and let God life Its fullest through me. And so It is.
