Anything Your Heart Desires Will Come to You
This week, we continue our study of the Unity principle, " It's not enough to believe the Truth, we must live it." Using a well-known song from the Disney catalogue (hint: the talk title is a lyric from the song), we will take inspiration from the song to inspire action, change and transformation in our lives.

This week...
“To court the Infinite [God] you must first cultivate a desire to do so. Then, just as in any relationship, you invest your love, energy, time and attention. Today, use the little gaps of time to practice the presence of God. And when you can, incrementally increase the amount of time you devote to meditation and prayer.
The results will astound you.”

Of Concern....
Deborah Trueheart is now in hospice. She would appreciate some Divine, Nurturing Love in the form of cards, calls and prayers from her Unity Community at this difficult but divinely appointed time. Her phone number is 978-421-5103.
Her address is 9 Pond View Lane, Tewkesbury, MA 01875.
Please pray for Astrid Lorentzen and Jack Santos. Astrid has asked for prayers that she find the right treatment to bring her fully into the manifestation of radiant health, joy and spiritual well-being.
Please continue to pray for our beloved Martine Bernard as she fully lives in Faith that allows only health and vitality and Love to inhabit her human form. May she continue to radiate her beautiful warmth to all with whom she comes in contact.
