Rev Martha Quintana, Senior Minister

I’m in an Easter State of Mind

(sung to the tune of “I’m in a New York State of Mind”)

We know that the Easter holiday is about resurrection. For metaphysicians, resurrection is about awakening the part of the self that has gone to sleep. Sometimes we feel that some part of the self may even have died because of duress, misuse, or lack of use. However, it’s not true! Having and being part of life means that all of the self gets to live no matter what we do or what happened in the past, or not. Put on your best Easter outfit and join Rev. Martha on Sunday as we discover all the life inside of us!

“With God I Will Make Decisions with Confidence”

Kathy Mathiason, RScP

In this present moment, I affirm and declare my oneness with the Divine. I recognize this Power, Energy and Unconditional Love of all good and all wisdom. It is a powerful loving Presence always with me. In knowing this I am now open to receive Spirits Truth for me today.

Whenever there are decisions to be made, I allow Divine Intelligence to be my guide. The power of Spirit is within me leading and directing my path. With divine intelligence every right idea flows easily into my consciousness. I move forward with assurance, I know spirit speaks through me with love and understanding. When embarking on a new task or project, I do so with confidence, knowing spirit has provided me with all I need in order to be successful. I put my faith in the One Power that is Omniscient and Omnipresent. Every decision I make today and every day I know is supported and guided by my belief in Divine Intelligence.

It is with great gratitude that I acknowledge the Presence in me, as me, that makes my way clear. So as I release my word into the Law is already done. And so it is.

Kathy Mathiason is a Practitioner at the Rio Grande Center For Spiritual Living, Albuquerque, New Mexico.

What We Believe

What We Teach

We teach the Science of Mind, which is the study of Life and the nature of the laws of thought; the idea that we live in a Spiritual Universe; that God or Spirit is in, through, around us; and that this Presence is a loving source of all Good.
