Dear Friends in Truth,

 

Happy Mother’s Day! This month we celebrate mothers, in all the many forms, from mothers to grandmothers, to sisters, aunties and good friends.  Mother is the nurturing side of God, that part of the Divine whole that cares for and nurtures its creation. On Mother’s Day we especially think of the caring and rearing of our children, certainly one of our highest callings.
 

And so we send blessings to any and all who nurture our children.
 

In the month of May, I would encourage all of us to also honor Mother Earth.  Our planet has lovingly housed and sustained us for eons, and now she needs our nurturing.  As part of the Association for Global New Thought, we are asked to participate in the Season for the Earth from April through June.  On our Peace Page, you will find some suggestions for easy ways to nurture our planet. I hope you will have fun with this project.
 

We might also ask ourselves what else we can nurture.  Since this is the month wherein we celebrate the nurturing aspect of humanity, we truly have this wonderful opportunity to invoke this power in all of our lives.  For instance, we can nurture our relationships and friendships by giving them more attention and love, by being more patient, kind and understanding.  And we can nurture our body temple, by choosing foods that energize and support its wellbeing. We can nurture it with gentle exercise and adequate rest. And maybe in celebration of Mother’s Day, a massage and/or a Quantum Energy treatment?  To nurture well, we must be willing to listen, and when our body aches or appears to be sick, it is simply saying, “Please pay attention to me, and nurture me.”

Our soul too is responsive to nurturing.  When we attend Sunday services and listen to the lessons and then take time to process the information, our soul is enriched. And certainly the soul loves the uplifting and inspiring music.  And we further nurture our soul by breaking bread together at our luncheons after the service.  These lunches provide us a wonderful opportunity to nurture another’s soul, when we sit down in conversation with not only our friends, but also with those who are new to us.  What a nurturing experience that can be!


We can nurture our mind and spirit by taking one or more of the exciting classes offered by our Church.  Over and above the material that is presented, the dynamic of the dialogues that follow encourage and support growth of the highest order.

 

And, we can nurture our Church by becoming fully engaged in its activities. Please don’t wait until the church becomes what you want it to be before you volunteer your time and talent to it.  To be all that it can be, our Church needs our nurturing…now.

 

May all of your life feel the blessing of the power of nurturing love!

  

In the Light,

Rev. Dr. Donna Byrns
