It is a great pleasure for me to welcome you here today,
Joining me with today's daily presence.
This is number 18 of your daily presence.
One of the things I've learned in my ministerial studies and have adopted for my own thinking is the idea that all is already given.
In other words,
Whatever is available for our lives,
It's already there.
It's available.
And my job is to really open myself up to the possibility of what is available,
That the universe is constantly in a frame of providing.
And so with that,
Today's words reflect that belief,
That understanding.
And so I invite you to join me and to open yourself up to the idea that all is already given.
So if you're comfortable,
You can close your eyes for this brief moment together,
Standing firm in your truth and opening our heart,
Your heart,
My heart,
The heart of the world,
Opening it up to new ideas,
New possibilities.
Celebrate.
Stand in the light of divine presence.
Know that all good is already given and is all readily available.
We need only open ourselves up to what is and has always been present.
Our being is of divine love and we gather as one to honor one another,
As each other,
And love our neighbors as ourselves.
Amen.
