No Turning Back

When's the last time you went to church? By various definitions, 'church' may refer to a building, a program of religious service , or a body of people. I'd like to add my very own definition: a verb meaning, 'to be spiritually uplifted'. I'm about to get righteous here and tell you, when you've been to Renaissance Unity Church in Warren, MI, you've been churched. In addition to the phenomenal, outstanding, and just utterly awesome music you will hear, Rev. Jim Lee will move you with his heartfelt, insightful, and witty messages. (Picture Chris Rock meets the Dalai Lama.) As the supreme cherry-on-top, RU offers a range of classes that will blow your mind and broaden your spiritual horizon.
This is my story, written for a class I'm currently taking:
My hope is in Knowing*. Every lesson I've ever learned is leading
me to a place that I can rest in the Knowing. I no longer have to
'try', worry, strive to do more, know more, or be more.
I am everything, and I am nothing. I am one word in the Master-
Piece that God has written. He knows my meaning and my intention.
It is independantly grand, yet shaped by every single word that
He has authored, Past, Present, and Future.
My identity is not in my thoughts, words, actions, or my
physical body. I am an infinite expression of God's love that is
inextricably woven into His Creation. My Knowing will bring
hope and peace to others.
I am the light of God.

*Knowing the Truth, that God lives in me and through me. He lives in and through you, and all that He has created. "It's all God, it's all Good."
