April 21- Taking It to the Streets
April 21 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
It doesn’t matter what the topic or situation is. This is ours to do. Let’s amp up our gentleness and respond “in kind.”
“I breathe gentleness into all the ways our communities and cultures evolve.”
Today’s Topic: We are probably living in the most decisive time in human history. Or at least it feels that way. We are inundated with media bias and more polarized opinions than ever before. And yet, fundamental to Unity is Love. Love is the very essence of gentleness. So, this week we foster gentleness in three key areas of our lives to give us some perspective and breathing room.
Unity Point of View:
Everybody loves somebody or something—sometime, somewhere, somehow.
“It may seem to be only one’s self or one’s problems—or maybe one’s rigid opinions. But love must play a part in the life of every individual. It is our nature to love.
Love is the most universally recognized and most frequently misinterpreted of the Twelve Powers.
It is a part of life and living, and without love, people perish. Even a wrong interpretation of this attribute of God is better than no love at all. But, as those who are seeking to unfold all the faculties under God’s direction, we can be guided into the right use and development of this power. As we let the divine interpretation unfold in our lives, we will find that it opens the door to experiences of God’s good, above and beyond anything we have ever thought was possible.
In Spirit, love is “the pure essence of Being that binds together the whole human family” … It is the harmonizing, healing, unifying, attracting power in the universe. In nature, it works as gravity. In Divine Mind, it is the idea of universal harmony and unity, that which binds together the whole of God’s creation into one harmonious unit so that even the tiniest movement of a person’s finger displaces atoms out in space; and the thoughts and feelings of our civilization combine to form a race consciousness which determines the future of all humankind.
There is only Love anywhere and everywhere. This is the essence of who we are. Therefore, it is the very lives we live. When we bring our focus back to Love through our practices, we shine love into the world and perceive love in our lives.”
