Today's Sermonette

There are people in this world who would give anything and everything, who would suffer whatever it took, if they knew it would end the world's suffering and bring peace, love, and understanding. That is what the Jesus story is about. It's not about one person, it's about all of us.

Jesus is an idea that we can all aspire to embody, not a supreme being we should worship or adore. Whether it's Jesus or The Goddess you relate to, or any other aspect of divinity, it's the same. BE it, don't worship it. Embody it, don't look for it outside yourself.
As long as humans perpetuate power/over relationships, with each other, with the world, with the divine, we will not achieve our potential. Human potential is amazing, beyond what most humans imagine.
When we elevate divinity and make it out of reach, we limit ourselves. When we allow ourselves to experience being the divine, the possibilities are limitless.
