Unity Church of Raleigh

Have you ever paused to consider the incredible power of imagination in your life, and what it might make possible for you, your community, and our world? From the perspective of Unity and its co-founder Charles Fillmore, imagination is much more than daydreaming—it's one of our twelve spiritual powers, a divine gift that lets us see beyond our current circumstances and envision something greater. What if the images you hold in your mind could shape your reality? How might your life change if you allowed yourself to picture good unfolding in every area, or if you let your imagination be guided by your highest self? Imagine releasing limiting thoughts and discovering your own creative potential—what new doors might open? As Fillmore teaches, imagination is the doorway to possibility, a tool for transformation, and an invitation to co-create with God. Are you curious about how you might harness this power to bring more hope, healing, and joy into your life? Join us as we explore this remarkable gift together and reflect on how imagination can help us see things right within ourselves and the world.
Scripture: I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray with the mind also; I will sing praise with the spirit, but I will sing praise with the mind also. 1 Corinthians 14:15
Affirmation: I AM the spiritual power of imagination, claiming my Divine Identity.

In exploring the concept of God as presented in Paul Smith's "Is Your God Big Enough, Close Enough, You Enough?", we are invited to broaden our understanding of the divine. In the chapter "Is Your God Big Enough?", Smith encourages us to see beyond the traditional images of God the Father and to embrace the vastness of infinite being. He speaks of the cosmic Christ, a reality that transcends our earthly perceptions and reveals a glory that connects all creation. Additionally, he invites us to contemplate the infinite consciousness of the Spirit, urging us to recognize that God is not confined to our limited experiences or understanding. Instead, we are called to engage with a God who exists beyond our individual narratives, opening our minds and hearts to a relationship with an expansive, loving presence. As we reflect on this idea, let’s consider how we personally relate to such a boundless notion of the divine. Are we ready to embrace a God who is not just close to us, but infinitely greater, inviting us into a deeper experience of life and connection?
