Easter Sunday: Be Okay with Everything – Join us this week for our Easter Service: Be Okay with Everything, embracing all of what life brings to us and emptying the old to make space for the new.
Easter 2024 Service – Be Okay with Everything – It’s Easter Sunday and today’s message is “Be Okay with Everything.” Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, reminds you of the events of Holy Week and how Jesus demonstrated that he was indeed OKAY with everything. We take a moment to reflect on how to increase our Christ Consciousness through committing to quiet ourself daily and listen to the voice of the Divine helping us to embrace spiritual transformation.
In its most basic sense, to “Be Okay with Everything” means embracing all of what life brings to us and emptying the old to make space for the new. As Ernest Holmes tells us in “Spiritual Awareness”:
“Jesus spoke of the joy which he had and which he desired us to have, that our joy might be full. There is music at the center of everything. The melody is real. We must uncover the song and permit it to saturate our souls with joy.”
Enjoy the music of Gray Lynn Floyd, Karen Drucker, and our own CSL Southeast Louisiana music team.

Easter 2024 Service – Be Okay with Everything – Message Only – Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides an Easter message: “Be Okay with Everything.” Listen as she relates the events of Holy Week and speaks of how Jesus came to remind us to live without fear. She also encourages us to give the Divine 2 minutes in the middle of each day to increase our spiritual transformation. As And Deepak Chopra wrote:
“The symbolic language of the crucifixion is the death of the old paradigm; resurrection is a leap into a whole new way of thinking.”
Imagine how much impact this community can have as we join each other in praying and being in gratitude for an extra 2 minutes each day. Certainly we raise our own vibration and the vibration of the planet.

The Real Game of Life – Learn how to focus on what you really want from life. Our guest speaker, Rev. Larry King, a fabulous minister from Oregon, and an experienced speaker and process leader, encourages you to cultivate knowing yourself, to remember to see life more like a game than a struggle and to perceive life as positive. With all the ideas we might have for improving our own lives and perhaps even the world, Rev. Larry asks us what mental and physical preparations we have made to accept our good. He challenges us to write a couple things we want to improve and follow through with preparing to receive our good.
Florence Scovel Shinn, in “The Game of Life” provided some rules about life to remember:
“Life responds to our thinking and our beliefs. If we want clear responses we have to have clean inputs. We need to remove thoughts and ideas that are counter to our desired outcome.”

The Real Game of Life– Reading Listen as Judy Johnson reads an excerpt from The Game of Life by Florence Scovel Shinn. This entry reminds us “to play successfully the game of life, we must train the imaging faculty. A person with an imaging faculty trained to image only good, brings into his life “every righteous desire of his heart” — health, wealth, love, friends, perfect self-expression, his highest ideals.”
The Real Game of Life- Message Only Listen as Rev. Larry King, the “other Rev. Larry”, a fabulous minister from Oregon provides a message on “The Real Game of Life,” based on a book by Florence Scovel Shinn. His message is about preparing for what we want both mentally and physically. Rev Larry reminds us to quit focusing on what we don’t want and figure out what we do want in our lives in 2024. As Francis Scovel Shinn wrote:
“Most people consider life a battle — but it is not a battle, it is a game. It is a game, however, which cannot be played successfully without the knowledge of spiritual law.”
Imagine what your life and the world might look like if we took time to make mental and spiritual preparations to accept our good!

Echoes of the Past! – Insight into how your past is affecting your present – either consciously or unconsciously. Dare to claim your own magnificence and start each day with a clean slate!
Echoes of the Past! This week our service focuses on Echoes of the Past – how to stop living a life based on what others expect and fully embrace all of our own magnificence. Join Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl as she encourages you to start each day with a clean slate and be exactly who you are.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his essay Self-Reliance, tells us:
… man postpones or remembers; he does not live in the present, but with reverted eye laments the past, … He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time.”
If we truly want to be who we are, let us trust ourselves and claim our own consciousness!

Echoes of the Past! – Message Only Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides a message which focuses on how the past might be getting in the way of you claiming your own magnificence. She invites you to know that each day you start with a clean slate and you can choose to embrace your own unique self rather than hiding in the shadows of other people’s beliefs and ideas. Ernest Holmes tells us:
The mind is a magnet and we attract that with which we identify the self. In order to get the most out of life we must learn consciously to change many of our habitual thought patterns. This is not easy, for our old thought patterns cling to us with great tenacity, but, being thought patterns, they can be reversed. If you are filled with fear, refill yourself with faith, for faith always overcomes fear.
Imagine how you might live your life in 2024 if you chose to embrace your own powerful ideas, pouring those powerful ideas into your own mold of creativity.

If we truly want 2024 to be a year of greatness for us, let us start by believing that whenever we ask, it is given – so dream big and watch it manifest!

Dennis Merritt Jones, in The Art of Being, wrote:
“I believe there is something within each of us that is aching for authentic spiritual connection, to actually know what God’s presence feels like. Spiritual community is where this happens! Why? Because it creates an environment where everyone feels commonly (communally) and equally embraced in the loving presence of God – it magnifies the experience. Each one actually becomes a reflector for the other, magnifying God’s magnificence and love.”

He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:
Environment is but his looking-glass.

Author of “In Search of Fatherhood: A Mother Lode of Wisdom From the World of Daughterhood,”, Kevin Renner, wrote:
“Children internalize much of that culture (of their parents), and those beliefs get implanted to their minds without any fanfare. Sometimes we recognize those beliefs, and sometimes we don’t. Many remain unconscious and put our lives on an autopilot. The lucky among us get help digging through those old tapes, and how they govern our perceptions, feelings and behaviors.”
Imagine what life on the planet would be like if everyone decided to dig through those beliefs that no longer serve us and notice how they make govern our perceptions, feelings and behaviors so we could replace them with flowers of wisdom and love.

Learn to truly live life from a place where love abounds, where there is no separation, and Spirit flows through you in all your actions.
The Spiritual Kingdoms of Consciousness – Living in Love and Oneness – Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides a message of “The Spiritual Kingdoms of Consciousness – Living in Love and Oneness.” This message is a look at Kingdoms 3 and 4 of consciousness – those kingdoms in which life happens Through Me and As Me. When we live in integrity with who we are, allow things to flow naturally in our life, see everything through the eyes of love and walk hand-in-hand with the Divine, we live in the spiritual realm of life. When we reach this level of consciousness, the “little s” self is replaced by the Presence, and there is technically no longer a “me” for things to be done as. We give us our individuality for the oneness. You learn practical ways to move into these kingdoms.
Lesson 156 of A Course in Miracles is “I walk with God in perfect holiness.”
And we learn from that lesson:
“The light in you is what the universe longs to behold. All living things are still before you, for they recognize Who walks with you.The light you carry is their own. And thus they see in you their holiness.”

“There is a God Power at the center of every man’s being, a Presence that knows neither lack, limitation nor fear, sickness, disquiet nor imperfection. This Presence and Power is at the center of all people and all things. But because everyone is an individual, he can build a wall of negative thought between himself and this perfection. This makes it difficult for the true center to come to the surface.”

In Your Invisible Power, Ernest Holmes wrote:
“We are doing the Divine business of God in all of our activities, we have all the resources we need, we have no competitors, and the business is always a function of good. We must claim this partnership as our own, accept the counsel of our Silent Partner, God, and realize that all we create through this partnership always results in more good and is the action of God creating “things out of Himself by Himself becoming the things that He makes.”

Fast from Fear, Feast on Faith This week our service focuses on Fast from Fear, Feast on Faith – how we can seek to live our highest and best life by turning our backs on fear, and recognizing we must examine our beliefs for how they run our lives and block our faith. Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, continues the series on This Thing Called You by Ernest Holmes, in which each week is independent. She speaks of turning your back on fear, remembering faith brings you to an ever-ascending path to your greatest good – to a richer, larger, truer and better life. She recommends making decisions from faith rather than from fear.
Ernest Holmes in What Religious Science Teaches wrote:
“Fear declares that everything may go wrong; this is always the language of fear; but faith declares that everything will go right; and this is always the language of faith. Fear does not know; faith does not know. Follow the verdict of fear and everything will go wrong, because the path of fear leads into wrong. But follow the superior insight of faith and everything will go right.”

Beneath The Masks This week our service focuses on Beneath The Masks – how we can learn to be aware of the many masks we wear so we might strip them away, release them, step fully into being our true self, and know our light creates miracles. Rev. Larrye-Marie tells the story of the Golden Buddha who for two centuries was covered in clay. Much like the Buddha, we often cover ourselves with masks to hide the real, brilliant self that we are. It is when we let all the barriers be lifted, quit hiding behind masks and allow our true power to show up. She encourages you to trust your heart and be like the shooting stay – unstoppable and free. Nathaniel Hawthorne in The Scarlet Letter wrote these words of wisdom to remind us to be authentically who we are:
“No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true.”

Jeanette Winterson wrote: “Don’t you, when strangers and friends come to call, straighten the cushions, clean up the dishes, kick the books under the bed and put away the letter you were writing? How many of us want any of us to see us as we really are? Isn’t the mirror hostile enough?”

“When we hold on to anger, hurt, or resentment, we only hurt ourselves. By withholding love from another, we deny it to ourselves. If you keep someone in prison with your thoughts, you have to sit at their jail door to keep them from escaping, and thus become a prisoner yourself. To free another is to free yourself. When you give the gift of release, your spirit is healed.”

Edwene Gaines, in The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity, wrote:
“One great tool is to learn how to say the word Oops! again. When you watch a baby learn to walk,
she’ll take a few steps and then fall; when she does, you don’t say, “Look, you failed, you ignorant thing! Just stay down there and don’t try again.” Yet, this is what we often say to ourselves. It’s a much gentler and more empowering thing to learn to say, “Oops! That didn’t work. Oh well, I’ll just have to try again.”
Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl encourages you to release your baggage and learn to say Oops!

She reminds us that we can set realistic expectations on our journey and also become the scientific observer of our life, shifting our perspective, developing a calmness of mind, and living in the moment. In the words of the Dalai Lama:
“The ability to shift perspectives can be very helpful. Then, practicing this, one can use certain experiences, certain tragedies, to develop a calmness of mind.”
Imagine the ease of life if we learned to choose peace instead of focusing on the perils of the path.

As Ernest Holmes, in Spiritual Awareness, wrote:
“Our Divine nature never deserts us. Like the prodigal son we may wander into far countries of despair, but the Divinity within us ever gently urges us back to the center of our true being; It ever reminds us of Its presence. If we permit It, this spiritual Self will direct our every decision with intelligence and make perfect our way before us.”

Fields refers to inner guidance as the voice that is truly our own. He writes of this voice and says it is referred by one mystic as “the Spirit of Life that is always speaking to our souls.” As Fields writes:
“The source of this voice – which may be without sound, and yet is heard – is called by many different names: the inner guide, guardian angel, spirit guide, the collective unconscious, or just plain intuition. Actually all of us hear the whisperings of this inner voice every single day of our lives, but many ignore it.”

She describes how it is possible for one person to make a difference by doing what is theirs to do. She also describes how to become socially aware and step into taking spiritual social action. As Nona L. Brooks, in Mysteries, wrote:
“Even though there are numerous world conditions which are obviously evil, such as war, jealousy, dishonesty, injustice, suspicion, it is also evident that these conditions have no place in the universal plan. God does not know these. Since God is all, evil must be a temporary condition without power. Evil always vanishes when you and I take a strong enough stand in God-Consciousness.

Earth and Social Action – Reading Listen to Robyn Vie Carpenter-Brisco as she reads an excerpt on Earth and Social Action from “Chop Wood, Carry Water”, Chapter 12, by Rick Fields. We are reminded that ecological awareness is spiritual, and that Jesus and other great leaders worshiped by being in nature. As Sea Bear of the Chippewa Tribe put it: “I do not think that the measure of a civilization is how tall its buildings of concrete are, but rather how well its people have learned to relate to their environment and fellow man.”
Laws of Ecology Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana summarizes Patrick Moore’s Laws of Ecology.
Earth and Social Action – Message Only – Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides a message which focuses on Earth and Social Action and how to love the Earth and embrace our spiritual social action side. She reminds us that we have a responsibility to leave Earth in at least a good a shape as when we first arrived and we must learn to take action from a spiritual perspective with respect to social issues. As Ernest Holmes wrote in Light:
“There is a light that permeates the world but we have not sensed it. We need, in the silence of our own contemplation, to take time to feel that light and to see it. We have to hitch our earthly wagon to a spiritual star because if we do not, we are going to hitch it to a make-believe life, something that has no light at all. The only light there is is the Light Eternal.“
It is our use of the earth and our ability to see the Light Eternal that determines what is happening on this planet. Imagine the ease of life if we each remembered these words of Jesus from James(2:18):
“What good is it if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?”

As Fields wrote:
“Every task, every problem has a vast array of possible solutions. As conscientious individuals, responsible for the effects of our living patterns, responsible to the future, and capable of making choices, we must not take the simplest, easiest, or quickest solution to be the best solution. Neither are we morally bound to forsake technology or treat it as inherently evil. Moderation and common sense will likely lead us to an appropriate balance.”

She reminds us that Technology is a blessing when used correctly and has many benefits. She describes how to use technology without compromising spirituality, and how our problem-solving must include all facets of life. As Fields wrote:
“If new technology creates new perils, it also creates new Hope. The industrial revolution, for all its drawbacks, was a spiritually liberating force. Computer scientist Francis Jeffrey offers consolation, “technology and consciousness interact in ways that produce new consciousness, new technologies, and new possibilities for the future.“
It is your use of technology that determines if it is enhancing or distracting from your spirituality. Imagine the ease of life if we each remembered these words of Albert Einstein:
“When you always do what you have always done, you always get what you always got.”>/em>

The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.
It is YOUR thoughts that control how you see things and what you believe to be possible in your life.

”I have a method which will work for you if you would let it. Just forget all the pass. Forgive yourself and everyone else for everything that has ever happened. Try to feel that everyone is doing about the best he can. Come to realize that, while you were born into this world through your parents, you really are a Spirit. You really are born out of Life. The thing that entered into you when you were born was God, the living Spirit. Why not get back to the true center of your being and think and act and live from the point of view that you are One with everything because you are One with God?”

Ernest Holmes, in his essay on The Sequence of the Creative Order, reminds us of this:
“Gradually, as we re-form our thoughts they will become subjective; they will sink into that place in mind which is the Power within us and which must constitute the meeting place between the Absolute Cause and the relative effect which it projects. It may take time to do this, but think of the reward, the gift, the outcome.

Ernest Holmes, in Living the Science of Mind, wrote:
“One thing is certain – whatever our personality may be, or whatever it is to become, is wrapped up in the one idea that there is a Spirit in man, and God himself is incarnated in every living soul. The Spirit within us is the gift of heaven, and without it we would not be alive. It is a recognition of the Spirit within us that is the true starting point for the development of personality.”
Let us each remember to remember that God is incarnated in our soul and develop our personality with that as our starting point.

Imagine what might happen if we remembered to always stay connected with the Whole, to always listen when God speaks to our heart!

The great and long and meaningful secret of Life is bound up in this self-discovery, and the most fortunate moment in our lives will be that moment when we come to realize that we must take ourselves for better or for worse. Starting right where we are and disregarding time or effort, counting as gain only that which conspires to awaken us to the ultimate Reality, we shall travel back to the Center and the Source.”

Ernest Holmes, in his essays on The Discovery of God is Personal, reminds us of the personal nature of God:
“No ONE can find God for us; each individual must do this for himself. We cannot find God outside the self because we cannot go outside the self. There is no place where we begin and God leaves off. We can find God only within ourselves.”

Ernest Holmes, in his essays on Religion and Spirituality from Living the Science of Mind, wrote:
“The communion of the soul with this Over-Presence is a natural act. To feel that a Presence greater than we are is guiding us is normal. To trust this Presence is sanity. To desire that the Divine Eternal shall project Itself through our thought is to be receptive to that greater side of our nature which lies open to the upper reaches of thought. This is religion.”
Imagine what might happen if we remembered to feel the Presence and be receptive to the greater side of our nature!

When we recognize that the Truth we know is exactly the Truth demonstrated in our lives, we can shift to a place of thinking affirmatively. It is then that we are living the Science of Mind. We take control of our thoughts so as to bring about good and annihilate anything in our thinking that denies good.
Ernest Holmes, in Living the Science of Mind, wrote:
“When Jesus said that it is done unto us as we believe, he implied that there is a Power that can, will, and must react to us. But this Power has no choice other than to react to us in the way we think.”
Let us each begin to believe that good and more good is coming into our lives and the lives of others.

Ernest Holmes, in Living the Science of Mind, wrote:
“We as individuals each have our own thoughts, feelings, hopes, aspirations, and desires, and each is directly and intimately connected with the one Divine Life, Energy, and Power. Each of us is a fountain of Life. There is a God-pressure back of each one of us, a Life-force seeking outlet through our thoughts and acts. There are many fountains, many individuals, but only one God-pressure back of all.”
Imagine what might happen if we remembered there is only one God pressure back of all, and we lived our lives aware of our thoughts so as to attract more good and annihilate anything from our thoughts that denied our good!

“Spiritual experience is a fact. Spirituality may be defined as an atmosphere of good, the realization of God. It cannot — and does not — borrow its light from another, no matter how great or noble that other may be. It springs from within, coming from that never-failing fountain of life, which quenches every thirst, whose Source is in eternity; the well-spring of self-existence. It is a revelation of the self to the self, putting one back on the track of his own self-dependence on Spirit, his own at-one-ment with Reality.”
Let us each begin to focus on being spiritual renegades and creating an atmosphere of good as the realization of God.

“If once we let ourselves get past the outward appearance of the individual, we come to understand that Life at the center of its being is the same as at the center of our being — Life which is never in conflict with Itself, never in a state of disharmony. We need never view human personality as something unreal or unworthy, but rather as an individualization of the Divine. It is the universal Spirit that is incarnated in each one in a unique way, and that gives warmth, color, and variation to that which otherwise would be an eternal monotony.”
Imagine what might happen if each person on the planet decided to be radically inclusive. Let each of us let that world begin with us!

“If once we let ourselves get past the outward appearance of the individual, we come to understand that Life at the center of its being is the same as at the center of our being — Life which is never in conflict with Itself, never in a state of disharmony. We need never view human personality as something unreal or unworthy, but rather as an individualization of the Divine. It is the universal Spirit that is incarnated in each one in a unique way, and that gives warmth, color, and variation to that which otherwise would be an eternal monotony.”
Imagine what might happen if each person on the planet decided to be radically inclusive. Let each of us let that world begin with us!

Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides a message which focuses on learning to reframe negative thoughts so as to have a more positive experience of life. Reframing allows us to alter our perceptions, and ultimately relieve significant amounts of stress, creating a more positive life without actually making any changes in our circumstances. When we apply positive reappraisal and reframing to the experiences we are having, we are revisiting our initial interpretation of an event or a situation and thinking about it in a more positive way. Studies show this reduces stress. When we learn to change our thinking so it is more positive, our life becomes more positive.
Diane Harmony wrote:
“One of the greatest privileges we have as human beings is the ability to choose. Conscious choice is a uniquely human quality.We are the sole creatures on this planet that can design our lives entirely by choosing what we will focus our attention upon.”
Let us each begin to reframe and apply positive reappraisal to our thinking. Then we can truly embrace being healthier, happier, and more joyful now!

Seed the Clouds! – This week our service focus is Seed the Clouds. Listen as Rev. Larrye-Marie Heyl, spiritual leader of Center for Spiritual Living Southeast Louisiana, provides a message which focuses on seeding your clouds for the shower of gifts it can bring tomorrow. When we stay focused, centered, and positive, when we release past-tense guilt and future-tense anxiety, we win the day. Seeding the clouds happens in many ways – a smile, an act of kindness, a first step towards a goal. Mark Batterson writes of the power of prayer in the process:
“Seeding the clouds is dreaming big by thinking long, and it starts with praying hard.
Praying without planning is a waste of time, while planning without praying is a waste of energy.
… The good news? The more you pray, the bigger you dream.
And the bigger you dream, the more you have to pray!”
Let us each begin to seed the cloud of our dreams for tomorrow.

The rest sit around it, and pluck blackberries.”

The mind is a magnet and we attract that with which we identify the self. In order to get the most out of life we must learn consciously to change many of our habitual thought patterns. This is not easy, for our old thought patterns cling to us with great tenacity, but, being thought patterns, they can be reversed.

Moving From Fear to Faith during these uncertain health issue times, which have impacted many of our lives in many ways. We have a philosophy that decrees that God is in everything – yes, even in this coronavirus outbreak. Since we do not have hindsight as yet, we cannot see the good, the GOD, in this fear that is engulfing our nation; and, what I know to be the truth from my many years of studying this philosophy is that when I let go of the FEAR and stand in the knowing that Spirit is right where I am, with EVERYTHING in Divine Order, life moves forward much more easily
