PRESENT MOMENT POWER

Rev. Mary Louise Ruffner

“A seeker of silences am I, and what treasure have I found in silences that I may dispense with confidence? If this is my day of harvest, in what fields have I sowed the seed, and in what unremembered seasons?” ~ Kahlil Gibran ~

Let us in the stillness of our own soul go back to that ineffable Presence which is Peace and proclaim It even in the midst of confusion, that Peace which is the Power at the heart of God.
~ Ernest Holmes ~

Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me.~ The Apostle Paul ~

~ ~ ~ ~

(Revised REPOST ) I know that spiritual discernment is key in the development of my evolving consciousness.  I anchor my go-to affirmations and prayers in the universal principles of Oneness, Love, and Peace, to name a few.  These eternal verities are my measurements of Reality, the Truth that is the same today, yesterday, and forever. From this perspective, the balancing act of being in this world but not of it is harmonized. My assessment of spiritual supremacy operating in human affairs inspires me to know that all is well. 

The wonderful thing about The Truth is it is never threatened, nor does it depend on what I believe. Instead, it is my perceptions and my beliefs that are the cause of my suffering as well as the inspiration of my unwavering faith.  

This intentional focus causes the energy of insight and right judgment to rise up within me. In this state of consciousness, I am a clear, conscious, conduit, through which Divine Wisdom and Intelligence flow unobstructed, guiding all my decisions into right action. 

I affirm the inevitable presence and power of the One Spirit, God, now and in the future.

I like living on the affirmative side of life, and at the same time, I am careful not to put my head in the sand about the apparent conditions all around.   For example, as our nation experiences the labor pains of giving birth to its next expression of “the land of the free and the home of the brave,” I offer my cultivated consciousness as a midwife for the expected answer that reveals peace on earth and good will towards all.

In my awakened state of consciousness, I realize the evolution of Life is forever stretching into the eternal. Therefore, I capture the present moment and participate fully.   I listen for the Indwelling Presence to show me that which is mine to do.

The Gathering is a time when like-minded people come together for open dialogue about spiritual principles from a metaphysical perspective. A safe place is continuously nurtured so everyone may openly talk about their challenges, their wins, and their dreams in an environment of openness and non-judgment. A typical Saturday morning includes meditation, followed by a brief time of journaling. There is a spiritual principle presented as a springboard for the discussion that follows.
