The Energizing Grace of Perseverance – November 17, 2024

Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles

Loving greetings and joyous Thanksgiving wishes to you and your loved ones as you celebrate all the blessings in your lives. And please know that your presence in our spiritual family is to me a gift for which I am so deeply grateful.

Life’s journey is clearly multifaceted, interwoven as it is with pairs of opposites such as joys and sorrows. By giving ourselves quiet time for prayer and reflection, we gratefully discover that even within our challenges there is potential for inner growth. When such gratitude fills our heart, we feel what true prayer is, what Spirit’s unconditional love is. And that is why our theme of the month is “Gratitude: An Unconditional Quality of Consciousness.”

The November 17, 2024 topic is Appreciation: An Energy of the Heart.

The November 17, 2024 topic is The Energizing Grace of Perseverance. Webster’s Dictionary describes perseverance as remaining steadfast “in a course of action in spite of difficulties, obstacles or discouragement.” Our commitment to persevere in our spiritual practice despite setbacks or distractions is supported by a Divine Grace that empowers us to always keep going, to discover that we never walk the journey alone.
