Who,What, Why, When and How ?

Most people spend 90% of their time doing what other people want them to do instead of what they want to do themselves.

Most people, perhaps you, are haunted by self-destructive feelings which may frighten and depress you, for example; the constant fear that other people are somehow better; the fear that you are now, and will always remain, a second-class citizen in life - or the crushing realization that you always feel poor no matter how much money you earn, and always feel inadequate no matter how great your accomplishments.

You may feel stripped of your dreams and consigned to a treadmill existence, distrustful, resentful, insecure - fearing to share with the world your true self.

Many wonderful friends choose to destroy their lives rather than meet the challenge of their hopelessness to overcome the horrors of life in our civilized jungle and find joy where once was despair.

You may fail to realize that the pain and desperation which propels you to self-destruction can equally propel you toward enlightenment , self-fulfillment , health and real, honest happiness.

Because of two crippling pressures - the constant attempts of other people to exploit you and your own self-destructive feelings of inferiority - you spend your life in an emotional prison instead of a palace. You allow yourself to be surrounded by enemies instead of friends.

You accomplish only a fraction of what you are really able to accomplish. You find yourself constantly driven away from the real enjoyments, the real achievements, the real meaning of your life. Learn to control your destiny.

Learn to free yourself from the crippling lies and insincere promises of those who would subvert your future simply to console and/or enrich themselves.

Disabuse yourself of the notion that something can be had for nothing. Allow yourself the exhilarating joy of receiving the blessings of true and honest exertions.

Each and every one of us is born heir to all creation. Every single tool you need to build any future you want is born right in you.

No one can take your heritage from you. Only you can let it wither and die by believing the lies and deceptions of those who would deprive you of your birthright of happiness and self realization.

And only you can act to gather to yourself all the attributes and accomplishments due the glorious creation which you are.

Only if you are unafraid of truth will you find it.

42 Lessons Life Taught Me

by Rev. Doc Lowrey My daughter Jamie sent this post out on Facebook today. I was very impressed with it and wanted to share it's sage counsel. Written by Regina Brett, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio . "To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 42 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more: 1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 3. Life is too short – enjoy it.. 4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month. 6. You don't have to win every argument. Stay true to yourself. 7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone. 8. Save for retirement starting with your first pay check. 9. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile. 10. Make peace with your past so it won't s...

How To Get What You Want From Life

Everything single thing you require to achieve any end you desire came already built-in at your creation, only awaiting activation by your own sincere acts of (as Jesus said) asking, seeking and knocking. Jesus often instructed us to observe the instinctive behavior of children as an example of this process, but when we seek beyond basic survival need, conscious actions and understanding are required, though the mechanism for achieving our ends remains basically the same. Matthew 7 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. And in Matthew 21 22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. While Jesus explains that we are not immune from suffering, our pains must not dictate our behavior. Matthew 5 43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine en...

Church News - Church of Universal Truth

NOTICE: To help facilitate better understanding and communication of our message, the Board of Trustees has elected to form the Church of Universal Truth. Although UBU Ministries is organized as a church, the name has caused some confusion with the public. UBU Ministries will continue to be an official arm of the church and at present no formal distinction will be made between the two. Henceforth UBU Ministries will operate under the direction, subscribe to the rules, beliefs, practices and conventions of Church of Universal Truth and the two will eventually operate as distinct functional divisions of the same body and  Parent Organization, Church of Universal Truth. Membership, general meetings and most services are transferred to the new Parent organization. Further functional distinctions are planned by the Board to further define specific services offered by the Church and the Ministry.. Such distinctions of function will be published in the official Church Operat...
