Message of Love with Rev. Mary White
Good Afternoon and Blessings
No matter what our relationship is with the Creator, or how we experience that relationship, we all have a personal faith journey story. We may have found and continue to find enlightenment while on a nature walk, during meditation, volunteering, prayer, listening to music, helping others, a personal pilgrimage, and among other things living and loving the life you have been gifted. Or it may be that through thorough analysis we made a choice to have faith. Our faith Journey is a life-long experience which we alone experience with our Higher Power.
Keep safe, Keep connected.

Reading Celebrating the Labyrinth: A Journey of Spirit
What makes religious and spiritual symbols so powerful is the fact that we can never fully comprehend them. Just when we think we understand their ultimate meaning, another layer peels away and we see hidden depths. They are never through with us. If we fix the meaning of symbols, we cease to be open to new truth. This is a form of idolatry, substituting our ideas for the Ultimate. This means we should not expect final answers; only Godis final. Rather, we should expect to meet ourselves. Your spiritual journey, I expect, has been extremely complex. Everyone’s has. You have had many experiences, grown through many crises, celebrated many victories, found meaning in many symbols. The Labyrinth is just one means for self-discovery.

Prayer
Uplifting Spirit
Just when we believe that we have all the answers to our spiritual questions, you upturn all our assurances, and we are left with more uncertainties. May your presence help us to accept that our Higher Power is a mystery, and may you continue to gift us with a deeper faith. We pray this in the name of the Triune One. And so be it.
Amen
