In the May issue: 4x Grammy-Award Winner India.Arie

Stepping Into Her Power

India.Arie’s new album, SongVersation, is a powerful example of manifestation, showing what can happen when we surrender to Divine guidance. “In 2009, I let go,” she recalls. “I realized I had to seize the chance to make the career and life I wanted, not accepting what others wanted me to do. So, I decided to retire, asking God to show me where I am supposed to be.” In the May article, she explains how surrender led to SongVersation. India.Arie says she trusted her intuition through every line and note of every song on this album, following the flow. Now, she is truly in a place of standing in her Divine power. If it’s time for you to step into the light and use every bit of the power you have inside, you’ll enjoy India.Arie’s song, “Just Do You.” Click here for the video: www.soulbird.com/media.

In Solitude I Hear The Still Small Voice

This is a time of year for celebration for many faith traditions. Rev. John Scott offers this prayer during this season of renewal.

The Spirit of God within me is the jewel of my soul. It is the priceless treasure of the Kingdom of Heaven at the center of my being. In this “pearl of great price” I invest my all.

In solitude I commune with the Infinite and hear the “Still Small Voice,” the unerring intuition that guides my life’s journey. It fills my consciousness with every idea I need to lead compassionately and minister effectively. All those who come to me for guidance learn to turn within and access the inner wisdom which unerringly guides them to their good.

Nothing in the world of form can block my clear communication with the Presence and Power within. Outer appearances, like fake gems, pale into insignificance compared to the brilliance of the diamond – full-cut, flawless, white – which is my oneness with The One.

As our Centers for Spiritual Living world-wide celebrate the rebirth of spring, sing the Easter song of gladness or share the Passover of Praise, every minister, practitioner and congregant experiences the many-faceted beauty of silent communion with the Living Spirit Almighty, lovingly sharing Its wealth with all whom we encounter in the treasure house of life.

In gratitude, this word is released to the Law which silently fulfills it. And so it is.

Rev. John Scott, Kingston, Jamaica

Immortality
Ernest Holmes

From the standpoint of immortality we may have a body within a body to infinity. When this physical body is rendered useless and is no longer a fit instrument through which to function, another one may already be there!

The physical disappearance of Jesus after his resurrection was the result of the spiritualization of his consciousness. This so quickened his mentality that his body disintegrated, and his followers could not see him because he was on another plane. Planes are not places, they are states of consciousness.
