VISION: A Center For Spiritual Living

Rev Patti "Living in the Now"

Being mindful is being conscious of the moment. Not lost in the past, or drifting in the future. Both can have positives; lessons learned, intentions and goals. But when we forget to return to the moment, we lose the power.
Mindfulness does not involve the ego. Not trying to control, push away or make something linger. It is about being present.

Rev Patti "Living in the All"

There is nothing outside of us, away from us, separate from us, to "get". We have, and are all that is. It is the degree to which we embody and express life that It shows up for us.
Prayer does not change God, prayer changes us. It enlarges our mind, aligns us with our good and propels us forward.

Rev Patti "Consciousness of Abundance"

We are expressing the One Life of spirit. We are made in "the image and likeness", the essence of Spirit. All that It is, we are. And it is for us to live the biggest, grandest life we can.
We do not "want" or "need" anything, this implies it is separate from us. The Universe is already abundant, we don`t have to make it- we have to align with what already is.

Rev Patti "Consciousness of Oneness”

We are individualized, not individuals- as in separate. That is the illusion that clouds our manifestations. To believe that our good, our goal, is somehow apart from us.
We must place no thought of limit, or compromise or of delay on the Infinite. Spirit desires good for all.

Rev Patti "Revealing Magnificence"

We are individualized expressions of the One Life. All our uniqueness, that made us stand out, that sometimes we were mocked or ridiculed for, is part of our magnificence.
It is when we buy into the opinion of others, when we empower our limitations and fears, that we undermine our own dreams and abilities. We are not meant to blend in- we are meant to stand out!

Rev Patti "Practical Spirituality"

Thoughts are things. We use right thinking for definite purposes. To do this, we must be aware of, and align with the Law of Mind.
We awaken to our spiritual magnificence, and express it in greater, ever expanding ways. Life opens up to us.

Rev Patti "Transforming Lives"

Real transformation takes place from the inside out. It is a process, not an event. It isn`t about job, or income, or haircut. It is about releasing the false beliefs and limiting thoughts that hold us back.
We may be tempted to run out and try and create change in the outer world, but we know real change starts within.

Rev Patti "Living from Wholeness"

There is nothing to overcome; only something to align with! We act as if 'someday' we will arrive at Wholeness, that we will "get it".
The reality is, we are already IT. The Truth of us is problem free, not problem solve. When we fall into trying to make something happen, we are out of alignment with Spirit.

Rev Patti "Limitless"

Our essence is limitless. It is our nature to push the boundaries of accepted limits and expand them. How many things have been presented as "absolutes", that were later demolished? Going to the moon. The 4 minute mile. The home computer. Over and over, we move beyond what others think the limit is.
And we can do this in any area of our lives; health, prosperity, relationship, opportunity. The only thing limiting us is the thought in our head that we are limited. So change that thought!

Rev Patti "Freedom and Wholeness"

We are made in the image and likeness of That which created us. Who had nothing but Itself to draw upon to create with.
Spirit demonstrates through us the inherent qualities of Itself; freedom, wholeness, love, joy, abundance- at the level which we are capable of expressing them.
