There is nothing noble about being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. ~ Ernest HemingwayHow lovely it was to find this quote from Ernest Hemingway, as we had just enjoyed an enlightening tour through his home in Key West, Florida last week! He was a fascinating character, as well as a beloved and prolific writer, and it was a real thrill to see his writing studio just as he had left it, with his original, manual typewriters. Just as he continued to improve his skills and surpass his previous enterprises, so may each of us persist in becoming a greater and greater expression of our Authentic Self.
Over our lives, whether long or short, we discover more of Who we truly are and celebrate our growth and development, not by comparing ourselves to others, but by owning up to the Divinity within us and shining Its Light to all. In our ever-increasing satisfaction and joy in living from the Spiritual Presence within, we truly mature into the individualized manifestations of God that we were designed to be. Keeping in mind June’s theme, “Seasons of Living,” Rev. Mike will be speaking on, “Child of God or Adult of God,” as we livestream our Sunday Celebration at 10:30 A.M., from the Inspiration Café. As you go to our website www.cslphilly.org and click on the orange button, you will be directed to either Facebook or YouTube to watch the Morning Celebration. Previous Celebrations and our Love Notes are also posted there.
No matter what temporary challenge may be facing you, please consider reaching out to one of our Licensed Practitioners of Religious Science to help you navigate what may appear to be difficult waters, as we sometimes can use a “spiritual life preserver” to help us awaken to the Divine Presence within us that is greater than any problem. Contact any of them on the Practitioner Page of our website, and let them lift you into a greater sense of unity with Spirit. You may connect with the Practitioner of you choice with a telephone call or email to set up an appointment, in person or on line.
With great love and respect,
Dr. Maxine
