Universal Life Church

Honor and Rejoice

Greetings Beloved Children of the Light and in the light of GOD.

Blessings to you all and welcome to our beloved home where we come together in the Presence of God to celebrate Life as One.

A place where we may honour each others Higher Being as the Truth, that we are truth, and that truth, already being of Love?s Eternal Presence. I AM, I AM, I AM.

A Place where we may rejoice in the God/Goddess energy and become one with the flow of Universal Life and allow all to come into the natural being of just knowing we are one with all.

As we each open our hearts to our own beliefs and allow that special Angel, Master, Creator, God/Goddess to come into our heart centres this day, I light this candle to represent the UNIVERSAL GOD SOURCE in all of us to join us and guide us in our prayers of healing through out this day and each day following this day.

At this time I would like everyone to join me in a meditation:

(Acknowledge to each group before any meditation;

Know in your heart at anytime in any meditation no harm can come to you and you can just open your eyes and you are back in the room)

Now allow yourself to relax and even if you do not see anything know that it is happening on a cosmic level. See yourself placing all your problems of the week into a big box or small depending on the week. All the anger, sadness, frustration and all the other things that bothered you. Put them all in the box. (Pause for 3minutes)

Now light it with the great cosmic flame (violet flame) and watch all that stuff from the week before burn into a cloud of white smoke and go up into Heaven and know it?s being taken care of(Pause for 1minute)

Now repeat after me; dear GOD thank you, thank you, and thank you!

I would like to start off with passages from the bible. They comes from the King James Version John 1 Chapter 4:1-21

As I read these passages, I became wrapped up in one passage that struck a cord in my heart, that seemed to make me ponder over and over what this meant to me as a Child of Light; A Child of God. Someone so insignificant to the world at times, but, I know inside I AM someone who makes a difference, someone who can make a difference and so can you be. So can you be that some one.

That one passage that stuck out for me was verse 4; Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

What this says for me is that we can overcome all obstacles just knowing that ?I AM of GOD.? That?s all that need matter at any given moment. Is the knowledge that we are of GOD and that we are greater then any obstacle in our way.

Yet sometimes those obstacles may seem even mightier then you, this is when we must stop and take a moment to see the greatness inside and know our true GODSELVES and know that if we see the greatness in ourselves we will see the greatness in all, and those obstacles will become moments in the past that we no longer need to focus our attention on so that we will know that ?greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world?.

It is time to focus our attention on the love within and know that GOD is always there to assist us in all our needs and when it is necessary He will guide to where we are to be.

Because when we focus the love within to ourselves we are also focusing our attention inward to the truth of the source, which is GOD. GOD is LOVE

By LOVING OURSELVES, we LOVE GOD, by LOVING GOD we LOVE OURSELVES.

Plus I love that statement There is no fear in love 1 John 4:14 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

These passages I quote from the Bible. So I ask as I wind down today by saying, we come together as one to acknowledge how GREAT we are each as individuals on a path seeking one common balance and that is LOVE. GOD?s LOVE a place to call home in our hearts.

So when you go home and before you go to bed go look in the mirror tonight, smile, wrap your arms around yourself and just say ?Thank you GOD, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Thank You for the Greatness in I that is in I

At this time I would like to remind everyone how when we do a healing for others this healing never comes from us but through us from God to the client and how when the client shows his or her thanks by leaving an offering of love in exchange which in turn assist in keeping with the up keep of the office and building.

We hope that you too have received some kind of healing or guidance from today?s sermon and show it when the plate comes around or you may place an offering inside the envelopes provided on the seats.

Now if I can have everyone bow his or her heads in prayer:

Dear Universal Source, this day I call upon you to join us in oneness and being in your greatness.

Our knowingness is the knowingness of your universal Love. This same love you so loved your Son Jesus with. This same Love that guided him through the desert and fought down the darkness that came upon him. This same greatness within Him that raised the sick and assisted the blind to see. The LOVE that overcame all His obstacles and raised him from the dead. This Greatness LORD, this greatness that is in each of us. I call upon this greatness to flood each of us in this moment and to those that are open to receiving the oneness with the Universal Source, may they be filled with that LOVE now and be set free from all past doings knowing from this moment on they walk in the LIGHT of GOD. AMEN

May your days ahead be filled with the light of Father, the Son and the HOLY SPIRIT and may your days be filled with peace, joy and contentment as the Goddess wraps you in her cape of LOVE.
