All
of us need the prayers of others from time to time. Write your needs
on a prayer request form available in the church sanctuary and place
it in the Prayer Box.
Unity of Bozeman prays over the Prayer Box throughout the month. At
the end of the month we then send all the prayer requests to Silent Unity
where they pray over our prayer requests for an additional 30 days.
What a terrific way to manifest peace, joy and abundance in your life and
the lives of others. A Minister What
does it mean to be a minister? It
means to make yourself small so that others may feel large. It
means to make yourself a servant so that others may feel their mastery. It
means to give so that those who lack may receive. It
means to love so that those who feel unloved may have someone who never
rejects them,
someone with whom they can always
identify. It
means to hold out your help to those who ask and deserve help-and also to
those who
do not ask or deserve it.
It means always to be there when you are needed, yet
never to press yourself on another
when you are not wanted. It
means to stay at peace so that those who are contentious will have someone
to whom
they can turn to stabilize themselves. It
means to keep a cheerful outlook so that those who are easily cast down
may have
someone to lift them up. It
means to keep faith and to keep on keeping faith even when you yourself
fine little
reason for believing, so that those
who have no faith can find the courage to live. It
means not merely to live a life of prayer, but to turn your prayers into
life-more life
for you, more life for those to whom
you minister. It
means to be God-centered and human-hearted, to involve yourself in
humanity, and
to keep your vision on divinity-and so
draw forth in all around you the human
form divine. It
means to share in the great moments of life-in birth and sickness and
marriage and
death-and at all these times, whether
of crisis or of celebration, to bring comfort
and a blessings and, above all, a
sense of a Presence that sometimes we cannot
see and of a Meaning that often we
overlook. That
is what it means to be a minister of God and a minister to humanity. Amen
(from
prayers for a planetary pilgrim by Edward Hays)
