Inspired by lyrics to “Wholehearted” by Jan Garrett and JD Martin There’s a new Church on the horizon, made of light, not of stone, calling now to all creation, “You are not alone.” We are One Heart, looking for answers. We are One Soul, finding our way through the dark. Hold out your hand. Someone will take it and bring you home again. We are One Heart, One Soul, One…

Inspired by lyrics from “Rising in Love” by David Roth I always find it surprising, the way people say that they’re falling in love when I always thought I was rising, floating right off of the ground and reaching something that I only have dreamed of.

Inspired by lyrics by Sue Riley and JD Martin, “My Heart’s Desire” My heart’s desire – God’s will for me of good and only good – has been right here all the time. I am ready to live the dream that was always mine. It is never too late to find my heart’s desire. My good cannot be kept from me. I am ready now, today, for my heart’s desire.

Inspired by lyrics from “I’m in the Flow of Love” by Tim Burnaman: “I wake up in the morning in the flow of love. Another day is dawning, in the flow of love.

Feeling peace inside, what I’m dreaming…

Inspired by lyrics to “Getting Better Every Minute” by Richard Mekdeci: If we’re wise, we surely know, what we feed will always grow. So, I walk through my life and do my best to be cheerful, Because I know it’s a choice and it’s better than fearful. So, when my friends smile and say, “Hey, how ya doin’ today?” I will choose to answer in a positive way. I say, “I’m…

From the words of The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.:   “As we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. We cannot turn back.    With this faith, we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.     With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together….   With this faith,…

Lyrics to “Get Ready, My Soul” by Daniel Nahmod: “Everything I’ve ever done, everything I’ve ever seen, everything I’ve lost or won, everything I’ve ever dreamed, has brought me here to the present moment, here, to a new beginning, here and I’m seeing life so clearly now.” “‘Cause here I go, deeper, deeper, deeper than I’ve ever been before. Here I go, closer, closer,…

Inspired by lyrics to “Who You Really Are” Richard Mekdeci, Sage & Sue Riley “I know who you really are – I see it in your eyes. Oh, you are a shining star – I know who you really are! Oh, I know who you’re here to be – I see it in your eyes: A light for the world to see – I know who you’re…

Inspired by lyrics to “Emmanuel” by Claudia Carawan Once, a tiny baby slept beneath the stars of a long, dark night. This child, an answer to our prayers, our hopes and dreams and longing for the light. And now, the time has come to celebrate this baby’s birth and vow to do our best to bear His light upon this earth. I welcome the gift of this love with the joy of…
