He will be selling his beautiful,original art in the of note cards with the art work on the front in an embossed border and blank inside. The cards will sell for $5.00 each and are quality cards and well worth the asking price.

What is Abundance? And Where Can I Get Me Some?

New Year - New Goals

Did you know that with the onset of this month's move into Aries and Spring that we have a chance at ANOTHER New Year - this time on more of an energetic/spiritual level? 
Now, before you go and say, "Oh NO - not astrology!" may I gently remind you that from an esoteric Christianity perspective that the ENTIRE story of the Master Jesus' earthly journey and the ensuing recording of it (now called The Bible) are based on the journey of the Sun and planets through the heavens and the resulting energies available to humanity? 

If this is a new concept to you, then I invite you to join me and Susan Reynolds for our 8-week course on the Esoteric Wisdom during the day - or every Wednesday evening for my Wisdom Wednesdays! 

But I digress - this month everything is new, shiny and growing with the incoming energies of this spiritual new year. The Christ energy is moving and bringing with it the resurgence and growth in nature - and in our spirits!

Recently, I was speaking with the man who was looking at my foundation and crawl space to asses where erosion issues were coming from. He was shaking his head at all the calls he and his colleagues were getting because of, as he put it, the "Biblical" deluge of rains we've been having. "We don't seem to have rain - we have heavy, driving downpours"! I laughed when he started to list the horrible year he's been having (and he had) followed by, "I was so glad to see the behind of 2017, but 2018 don't seem to be that much better". 

I hear this lament every year - and yes, I will be honest, I, too have voiced it more than once. We tend to look ahead for a better day, a better year, a better life. In the process, we may overlook the valuable lessons and sign posts the seeming difficulties and challenges are actually giving us.

Part of the spiritual journey of evaluating where we have been and then assessing where we would LIKE to be is looking at what we can release. The challenge is to look at the experiences we tend to label as "bad" in a different way.

Let's agree that everything is God. We affirm this all the time, and yet have we really stopped to ponder what that means? It means that the good and the not-so-good are of God. If everything is God, then why would God allow the bad? Why did God allow Cain to kill Able, why did Hitler rise to power and why is ISIS the latest horrific group to commit crimes against humanity?

You may not like my answer.

WE agreed to it. Our SOULS collectively allow these happenings on the physical plane of existence because we are in the midst of the Great Shattering - the shattering of the illusion as to who we are and where we are going. It's so we can see the truth and begin to take responsibility (respond-ability) for co-creating with father/mother god the next steps in our evolution. The truth that we need to release and let go of the old age, the old forms and the old ways of being in order to make way for the new humanity - the new heaven on earth - that we are birthing. When we as a collective can see behind the happenings of the times to the spiritual cause, then we will begin to understand and create this New Jerusalem that the sacred text tells us is coming.

In order to do that, we are to lift into the fourth - and even the fifth - dimensions and begin to visualize, affirm and speak only that which is positive, creative and nurturing to our spirit.

Being negative and living in victim consciousness is just so much easier than being positive and knowing that we co-create our reality.

But living in abundance is our birthright - and our responsibility! Or should I say: "respond - ability?". For it is our ability to respond to "Whatever" comes our way that creates the energetic flow towards co creation, abundance and prosperity. When we go around in "eeekness" then we are blocking "oneness" and thus damming up the flow of cosmic/spiritual energy that is the very lifeblood of our manifesting ability.

A great way of keeping "in flow" is to have a visual reminder of how you want to use your divine co-creative powers by creating a Vision Board. As you continue to diligently and consistently work with Spirit, and affirm and believe in Divine Order, then, I assure you: you WILL achieve.

So, let's welcome Spring with open arms, open minds and open hearts - and manifest miracles!

Love and Abundant Blessings!
Rev. Rebecca

During our 8 weeks together, we will cover:
  • Universal Law

  • The 7-Rays and how to use them

ACADEMY OF SPIRITUALITY
Facilitated by Rev. David Hulse, D.D.
A Series on Jesus' Lost Teachings on Women!

Beginning Thursday, April 5th 
10:30 am
(10:15 Meditation)
in the Light House

Suggested Free Will Offering: 
$10 - 20













 

 

This series is about your right to become who you really are, whether you are in a male or a female body. The leaders of the early Church did not accept this message and Jesus' teaching on Woman has been lost.
We will explore some of the controversial questions being asked today today:
  • What was Jesus' relationship with Mary Magdalene?
  • Were they married?
  • Who were the Gnostics?
  • Why was Jesus' teaching on Woman/Divine Feminine suppressed?
  • Why was the concept of original sin invented?
  • Does gender have a bearing on spiritual attainment? And MORE!
