Jesus Christ Our Helper

I have an important assignment; It is to follow the Jesus Christ way as closely as I am able, so that I too may bless, inspire, and uplift others.

Conservation

I live with the realization that the Christ in me 

is eternally renewing every cell and 

atom of my entire being.

Our Lenten Practice

During these days, let each one deny themselves

  some food, drink, sleep, needless talking and idle jesting, and 

look forward to holy Easter with joy and spiritual longing.

Love

I express love to all,

 love that is balanced with wisdom.

 My prayer is: "Lord, make me a channel

 for the expression of Your love, day by day."

Wisdom

The Christ light, the light of Truth, 

is shining at the heart of my being. 

My thoughts are illumined by the light of spirit 

my powers and capabilities are increased.

Strength

I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 

As I turn to Him in prayer, my mind is open 

to ideas that are strong and true,

 and I feel an inflow of strength.

I see the Lord

As our journey takes us I thought you might like this video Enjoy!

7 Days of Prayer, Day 1

7 Days of Prayer

Day 1: But seek ye first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matt 6:33

We pray that God be first in every area of our lives.
Please show us what that looks like and
guide us on the journey of knowing
your presence in our lives.

Continuing the Holy Journey

We ought not to think of building holiness upon action,

we ought to build it upon a way of being.

For it is not what we do that makes us holy,

but we ought to make holy what we do.

Meister Eckhart

As we continue our Lenten practice,

let our daily rituals be made holy.

John

Finding God in all things

become more aware of

God's Presence in our lives

John

“Now the Dwelling of God
Is with human beings,
He will live with them.
They will be his people,

God himself will be with them

and be their God”
Rev 21:3

Resurrection

Life, love, and abundance are resurrected in me today.Just as the rising sun overcomes the dark of night, the Christ light reveals my way, allowing me to overcome any belief in limitation or lack. I act on the new possibilities that may have previously seemed hidden from view.With a Christ-inspired perspective, I view my world with spiritual vision, giving thanks for all creation.

In prayer and meditation, I allow divine ideas to rise in my consciousness and give them expression in my life and in my world.Life, love, and abundance are divine expressions of the Christ of my being that can never be denied me.

As I experience the Christ Presence within, these God-given spiritual gifts are resurrected in me today.

"The women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, 'Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen.'"-Luke 24:5

What are you willing to stop doing?

During the past week how many times have you seen Lent referred to as

the season of giving up chocolate?

As a season of focusing and getting closer to God

what would you be willing to give up to know God better and

have Spirit or god express through every aspect of your life?

I seem to remember a story about someone selling all they had….

I have been seeing lent as a period of Sabbath.

A time of doing less to know God more.
In the beginning of the year some of us made out our goals lists,

or maybe a vision or treasure map,

for what we wanted to have or accomplish this year.

I invite you to make a stop doing list

For this time of living with spiritual intensity & intention.

What are you willing to stop doing, to know God more?

Have some fun with it.


Love

John

The Journey Begins-Ash Wednesday

We begin the season of Lent, which is a season of Spiritual Attentiveness.
What will you do to become more attentive to the action of Spirit/God in your life and the world?

Traditionally Christians would fast by having only one full meal on Ash Wednesday. They would also fast during the 40 days of Lent & give their extra food to those who needed it. Fasting was having two small meals and only one regular meal.

I invite you to explore how you can practice this tradition in your life.
Some of us will be going on a water fast where we will only drink water instead of soda etc. & will give the money saved to projects that will bring water to those who don't have clean water where they live.

You could do this for a day, three days a week whatever you think you can do. and each time you drank water instead of something else you can use that time to bring your attention to God in your life.

We'll give you some more ideas as our journey continues.
We behold the Christ in you!
John
