Sermon Summary-Your Wonderful Mind

Below are the most important points from Sunday's Sermon on Your Wonderful Mind, based on our Unity textbook.

• There is only One Mind--God. We call it Divine Mind. The activity of this Mind is simply God's contemplation of Its own Allness of Perfection. THIS IS YOUR MIND.
• The human mind is like the shadow of a tree. It is the dark, distorted view of the actual Mind. Just like the shadow tree only exists because there is a real tree, the human mind only SEEMS to exist because the Divine Mind really exists as your own Mind.
• Give your attention to the Divine Mind. How? First by embracing the fact that it is your Mind, and then relying on it to teach you all Truth. You have many questions about God, and many more about God's reality in your life. Ask those questions of your Mind, and wait for the answer. Ask expectantly, and if necessary wait patiently. Nothing is more potent than receiving direct answers to your questions from the ONE MIND.
• Simple Exercise: "Take the words, "God loves me." Say them over and over again seeking a realization that they are true and watch the wonderful things that result. One person hearing this idea that God loves me said, "So what!" While you are seeking the realization of the truth of these words, you will first discover that no matter what you have done, or are doing, GOD LOVES YOU. Second, you will discover that when you are Loved by Omnipotent Goodness Itself, it will not allow any seeming evil to come near you. In other words, when Omnipotent Goodness is on your side, nothing else can prevail. Lastly, you will discover Why God loves you. It's because God loving you is God's exercise in Self-Love.

Sermon Highlights

The sermon (May 2, 2010) was based on the first chapter of the Unity textbook, "Lessons In Truth." Below are the highlights:

• The sure way of escape from any seeming bondage to persons, conditions, or things is through awakening to your Christ nature--your spiritual identity.
• Your (as the book calls it) indwelling Christ is the truth that you and God are one.
• You can experience as much of God's goodness as you dare claim (not wish for) from your Christ nature. Christ Jesus, from his Christ nature, dared to claim: "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." He also dared to claim "All that the Father has is mine." From your Christ nature, what do you claim on a daily basis? Remember, I am not asking what you are wishing for, but what you are claiming as your REALITY right now.
• You cannot experience the power of your BEING without taking time for daily quiet and meditation. In quietness, your God Consciousness announces itself and reveals what is REAL and TRUE.
• This quiet time is not for thinking about your seeming problems, nor the vexations of the day. It is to get your mind centered on God. "If need be, turn your thoughts to some simple words of Christ Jesus, or a favorite statement of Truth."
