When I turn on my computer at work, I smile, take a deep breath and am filled with gratitude. This image reminds me to let go and let God. I don't have to worry about Unity. Unity is God's church. My job is to get on with the things I have to do today: finish Unity's First Quarter Highlights, change the toilet paper, put the bulletins in the backs of the seats for Sunday's service, invite the usher/greeter team to volunteer for the Sundays in July and August, do the deposit and send an events calendar to Natural Awakenings magazine for their next issue.
I credit Unity with teaching me that I don't have to have the answers. In fact, I'm learning to turn my questions over to God too.
Holy Spirit often sends me answers over night. I wake up with some direction or a resolution to a situation I have been "Golden Keying." Rebecca wrote a description of Emmet Fox' concept of the Golden Key prayer in her last post on Prayers. I "Golden Key" everything now.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm not perfect at this. I have my "knee-jerk" reactions and I've learned to have them in safe places with safe people - my husband, my sister and a couple good friends. I have my worries and I'm grateful that I've learned to stop the worrying sooner rather than later and turn the situation over to God.
I love a visual spiritual reminder in front of my face whenever I turn on my computer at Unity. My wish for each of you is that you find your own similar regular spiritual reminder.
