Today’s Prayer: Lead by Rev. Sharon L. Jones
Dear God, Today I am confused. There are so many things that need to be accomplished; yet I sit and contemplate which direction to go. Dear God Almighty, for myself and for others who are feeling this way today take our hand and quite our minds so that we will know how to begin this weeks ventures. Let us make conscientious decisions for our betterment and be able to assist others along the way. When our heads are down let us take a moment to lift our head and see your light, whether it be from someone’s smile, whether it be a song, that brings us back to a happy place, or just to notice the singing of the birds. Guide us through today oh, Lord, give us strength and patience as we sort through our minds as to what it is we need to accomplish today. Thank you Father for your guidance and patience with us and for your thoughtfulness in hearing our prayer. Amen

If you are contemplating trying to start your own business, make sure that you understand what it entails. Call your treasurers office, or the small business administration and get your facts about name registration, and any business licenses you may require. Even if you want to run a business off of a web page. There are still certain legal precautions to follow. And you certainly don’t want to be shut down, because you didn’t do your homework 1st.

Wisdom From the Bhagavad-Gita Today’s Quote: Chapter 11
“I have dishonored You (God) many times while in relaxation, while lying on the same bed or eating together; sometimes alone, and sometimes in front of many friends. Please excuse me for all the many offenses I have committed against you!
Translation: Ask for forgiveness, God realizes that we are human and to be human is to err, but as long as we recognize in ourselves that we have made an error and are willing to acknowledge it, then you may also ask for forgiveness.

Today’s Spiritual Saying is from the: Aquarian Gospel of the Jesus Christ 20: 11-21
Scene: Jesus going home with his father to help him with his work and speaking to Joseph: These tools remind me of the ones we handle in the workshop of the mind where things are made of thought and where we build up character. We use the square to measure all our lines, to straighten out the crooked places of the way, and make the corners of our conduct square. We use the compass to draw circles around our passions and desires to keep them in the bounds of righteousness. We use the axe to cut away the knotty useless and ungainly parts and make the character symmetrical. We use the hammer to drive home truth, and pound it in until it is a part of every part. We use the plane to smooth the rough, uneven surfaces of joint, and block, and board that go to build the temple for the truth. The chisel, line, the plummet and the saw all have there uses in the workshop of the mind and then the ladder, this ladder with the trinity of steps, faith, hope and love on it we climb up it to the dome of purity of life. And on the twelve-step ladder we ascend until we reach the pinnacle of that which life is spent to build -the Temple of Perfected Man.
