Sunday's Message from Unity of Tucson

Even in Unity, there is conflict. We are one unified whole and we should be expressing this in the world. It is our time to innovate and evolve. Community is what it’s all about. Life is happening as WE.

We are stepping into our light. We must step into our inner diversity. But what if they don’t like me? We make up a story against ourselves. We are the unbroken flexibility of the divine. We are strong and unwavering. We are the outflow of the divine.

We all want to belong. We are here to celebrate what makes us unique. We can be different while still belonging to a tribe. Diversity is not accidental, it is intentional. The source of all discord is a sense of separation. Your unique expression is necessary to the whole.

You are required in the wholeness of life. Your life is a blessing. Life wants to happen. The saguaro cactus blooms in response to stress. We can burst forth in life when adversity is met with spiritual intention. Suffering can be transformed into meaning. We are alive with divine light.

Does what I say match the manner in which I am showing up in the world? We are at choice. If something or someone doesn’t work for you, send it/them on their way. Allow your inner light to shine brightly.

Can you live in integrity with the attributes of the divine? Our work is not to coerce, but to demonstrate. Integrity is a spiritual realization of wholeness, an alignment with divine identity. Not from superiority, but equity. Integrity isn’t isolated righteousness it is relational wholeness.

Happy Easter!

Have you ever felt disconnected, like something was missing? We are never truly disconnected from source, although it may feel that way. We can reconnect, redirect. We are not relegated to darkness—the faulty disconnect. We don’t need to give energy to darkness. Give yourself grace. Live a life of constant, smaller breakthroughs. Small shifts, moment by moment.

Spiritual evolution is like AC for the soul. We set the climate for our lives. We may take in negative, hot emotions and cool them down. We must address the overheated situations in our lives. It’s hard to feel divine when so much of who we are appears to be in opposition to our divinity. Do not deny our human feelings and experiences. Notice them with compassion. Be kind to yourself.

What are the “ifs” we are living? The hopes, dreams, and aspirations? Do we have unobtainable dreams? What conditions do we place on our lives? Do we require proof? We are already magnificent. We do not require permission to thrive. Rely less on spiritual leaders, institutions, and books. Rely instead on your divine, natural authority. Let’s surpass the “if”.

Do you ever feel lost on the path of life? Cairns mark the way, left as acts of kindness by others. There are also spiritual markers. Love is the most significant spiritual marker. We must find our inner calling, then choose to follow the markers along the path.

Can we connect to something beyond the mundane? We can always look deeper, creatively and spiritually. Curiosity leads to adventures but also life lessons. Sometimes we have to break rules in the bold pursuit of our own curiosity. Leave behind the mundane; experience the extraordinary. Consistency becomes excellence. Make excellence a habit.

We have the capacity to dream a life. Why not dream big? What if it all goes right? What would life be like then? Allow yourself to be spiritually transformed through your use of imagination. Stop believing in God and start believing as God. We see what we look for. Life is a mirror reflecting your thoughts.

Can you approach life with openness and non-judgement? True curiosity is the ability to question everything. If you’re not in awe you’re not paying attention. There is a truth about EVERY conversation. We are the outflow of infinite potential. When we live from divine identity we begin to dismantle limitation. GOD is Greatness On Demand and that is who you are. What if we stopped looking for excep...

Curiosity… A strong desire to know and learn. What ideas do you have? Can you choose which ideas to have? Do you feel the urge to step into your own park of creativity? How are you dimming your own light? We allow fear to get in the way. If we are shining our light we are demonstrating what we believe. You are the divine spark.

Is it time to overturn the tables in our mind? Can we stop others from stealing from us, mentally speaking? Do not turn away from our own discomfort. Corruption is not questioned—until it is. We are always at choice. Let us reclaim the sacredness of our own, private temple.

We can believe we are alone, isolated. But, we cannot be alone because of divine presence. We can evolve the idea of what community is. We desire connection more than anything else. Sometimes a philosophy alienates people. Community = COMMON UNITY. There are others who walk with us. We are all playing parts in a symphony. You matter. We must step into the unknown to build community. This is the ad...

What is the divine? Is it a thing? It is the thing itself. It is the essence of our beingness. 100 percent of us is 100 percent of the divine. The divine is ever creating. We carry the divine spark waiting to be nurtured and revealed.

We can infuse our lives with fear or excitement. We can choose to thrive—no matter what. The life we seek requires pressing against the edges of the known and unknown. We get to go outside our comfort zone. We never know what the consequences will be—of good fortune, or bad.

The Logos cannot adequately be translated into words. Human reason and universal intelligence. Definitions are shaped by the Word. Our thoughts and beliefs generate the experiences of our lives.
