 Each day through Lent, we have been encouraged to recognise and let go of various ideas, feelings or beliefs that have been holding us back and dimming our light, to reconnect with our beautiful, radiant Christ Self within.
Sometimes we can do this easily – we recognise the thought or idea and can let it go. I often experience this as a visceral feeling of relief – I have been set free, which is powerful indeed. In my experience however, when it is a long-held belief or deep-seated feeling, that is not so easy to release. It takes repeated practice as we learn new ways of responding and being, alongside patience and compassion with ourselves. Sometimes, feelings can arise and take us over, so that we find ourselves stuck, perhaps even in a downward spiral. It is important, at times like this, not to make the experience wrong or push it away. Instead, we can use this as an opportunity to ask for help and support, by connecting with others in prayer and call the Silent Unity prayer line. Connecting with one of our prayer volunteers, who responds with compassion, understanding and faith in God’s presence in the midst, helps us know we are not alone. Instead, praying together, we can know God as love and healing is with us and working through us, enabling us to experience our way through to freedom. If ever you find yourself in a challenging or difficult situation/experience, Silent Unity is always here for you. To help you through the hard times and celebrate the good times. Our prayers are always confidential and faithfully continue for thirty days. You are also welcome to join us on Zoom and share our prayer meetings each day. This experience of united prayer builds a sense of family, love and support. We are strengthened and empowered to live happy, healthy lives. Prayer changes us. Let our united prayers support you and return you back to your beautiful, radiant Christ Self. "If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish and it will be done for you. My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit." John 15:7-8 Rev Kimerie Mapletoft Director of Silent Unity and Daily Word UK
