Lifting the Spirit Blogging Schedule

Just a note to let you know that I plan to post on this blog on Wednesday and Friday of each week. That way you'll know when to drop by and we'll have enough time to chat about the week's topics before moving to something else. Looking forward to seeing you all back here tomorrow.
Blessings of the Spirit to You!

Introduction

I am a Unitarian Universalist Christian. It's taken me many years, a lot of prayers and a few twisty roads to get here. More on the twisty roads in a later post. As a Christian, the Way of Jesus draws me to seek God, and his teachings as related in the Bible provide my moral compass and a vision of what life on earth might be if only we could bring the Kingdom of God to it. As a Unitarian Universalist (UU), I acknowledge that there is a Truth, Divine Light, Sacredness, Higher Power, God, but I do not profess that I have exclusive, complete knowledge of its existence or characteristics. The Face of God is seen through many windows--sacred scriptures, nature, television, the cosmos, people, books, movies, Facebook--and only by being aware and open can we see even a glimpse of Divinity's expanse and nature. I foster an attitude of gratitude for Life, its blessings, joys and sorrows. As a UU, I'm very interested in outcomes. You may have very different beliefs from me, but how do you put those beliefs into practice? Do you respect and listen to others? Do you care for nature and Mother Earth? Do you seek justice for all people or do you feel that only a few deserve it? Do you love your neighbor as the Samaritan did? Do you support other people in their spiritual walk even if it's different from yours? Outcomes.

What does your faith look like?

Anticipation

Welcome to Lifting the Spirit! Come share the journey of a Christian "in the pews". I start with posts about the UUCF Revival . From there, we'll travel forward where the Spirit leads.
