What Lies Beneath the Surface
— Rev. Karin Wilson
I know that Spirit is for me,
so I dive with confidence into the unknown.
If we knew it all or could see it all, there would be no need for a curious, imaginative mind. Let’s appreciate the unknown, for without it life would be so dull.
We will dive through the fear to reveal the wonderment in the unknown and revel in the gifts it brings.
Join Rev. Karin this Sunday, February 5 at 10:30am PT at Studio 9, 1180 Houghton Road, Kelowna, BC. Doors open at 10:15am. Please visit the event page for more details and a map. Everyone is welcome!
If you are not feeling well, please take good care of yourself and watch us on Facebook Live.
This Week’s Science of Mind Theme
What Lies Beneath the Surface
That which lies unseen beneath the surface has always been a mystery to us. For some, it brings forth a feeling of excitement; but for most, the unknown is approached with fear.
We live in a limitless universe and our experience of it is only limited by our beliefs and perceptions. Allowing fear to prevent us from following our curiosity into the unknown, feeds the belief that the world is a scary place, and we are walking our path alone. Leaning into our faith and the knowingness that the Divine is supporting and supplying us in all that we do, we are free to seek out the beauty that lies beneath the surface.
As we grow and expand our knowledge of our world, we grow our personal power. In this place of security, we are free to dive deeper, discover new things, have ideas build upon ideas and as we uncover the beauty of the world, we recognize God in everything, and fear is laid down.
