The church of Spirit

I’m going to worship in the church of Spirit today. Oh, what a delightful place to be!


The church of Spirit is not a place on this earth, a building of stone, or a portal on the Internet. The church of Spirit is a state of divine Mind that knows no bounds, no roof or ceiling, no walls or confines.


The church of Spirit is God’s glory, heavenly Love, powerful Truth and deep profound peace. It’s a super inspired state of thought that is so brimming over with love that it knows no fear, worry or doubt. It does not fret or toil. It is not wrestling with challenges and conflicts. It is not in the world trying to figure out solutions to human problems. It is in the Spirit where Life is the solution!


There are no empty pews in this church. There are no cavernous tombs, relics of days gone past, musty smelling curtains, and time-worn carpets. There are no unpleasant sensations, no mournful outlooks, and no sentimental attachment to ways things used to be. There is only the newness of Life inspiring thought to greater heights of revelation, total release of the earth and its burdens, and freedom. Freedom!


Oh, what freedom one finds in the church of Spirit! It’s all joy and buyoant hope there, awesome beholding of grand and sweeping views of spiritual reality.


There is no material thought-taking, no human angst, ire, anger or resentment. No harsh judgment, no criticism, suspicion, or disparagement in the embrace of this church. Just freedom, glorious freedom from all the burdens of believing life could be anything other than pure existence in Spirit.


Church. It’s not a material place. It’s the omnipresent love of God felt and known to the core of our being. It’s a profoundly calm and holy space to occupy. It’s a most wonderful place to worship God, the creator, source and supplier of the universe. It’s all we could ever wish for, hope to have or experience to bring us into the presence of the Divine. It is the presence of heaven, our home with God, and I can’t imagine any other place I’d rather be.


P.S. I’m still going to drive across town and regularly worship with my neighbors at a local congregation of fellow seekers of truth. But I’m not going to arrive at the site, walk into the building and see less than ideal conditions and ask “Where is church?” I’m going to bring it with me.

Enjoy going to Church today!
