“Father’s Day is not just Sunday; it can be any day!”

If your response is, "I am just too weary and scattered," close your eyes for a few minutes, take a breath, and pray for assistance. A deep peace and a miraculous renewal of energy will follow! The little ego must step aside to allow the windfall of Spirit to enable you with infinite energy. Buried deep inside is an unlimited resource to do what will truly serve through a Power of Love.

If we don’t allow the Spirit of God to address the deep levels of our attachments to ourselves and our plans for happiness, we simply pour into the world the negative elements of our self-centeredness, adding to the conflicts that come from overidentifying with the biases and prejudices of our culture & upbringing.

Meditation for the Day Whenever we seek to worship God, we think of the great universe that God rules over, of creation, of mighty law and order throughout the universe. Then we feel the awe that precedes worship. I too must feel awe, feel the desire to worship God in wondering amazement. My mind is in a box of space and time; it is so made that I cannot conceive of what is beyond space or time, the limitless and the eternal. But I know that there must be something beyond space and time, and that something must be the limitless and eternal Power behind the universe. I also know that I can experience that Power in my life. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may accept the limitless and eternal Spirit. I pray that It may express Itself in my life.
