EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS

AND IT’S HEAVEN, WHEN YOU ARE CLEAR
BUT TO STAY THERE YOU, HAVE TO BE HERE AND NOW
YOU HOLD THE KEY TO EVERYTHING
BUT WHAT WILL YOU DO

WHEN YOU HEAR THE ANGELS SING...

EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS
EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS MINE
ALL THE TREASURES OF THE WORLD
ALL THE BEAUTY THAT YOU FIND
ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS CHOOSE
ALL YOU REALLY GOTTA DO IS DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT INSIDE

YOU PICK YOUR LIFE, IT’S UP TO YOU
I GIVE YOU ALL, WHEN YOU GIVE TO EACH OTHER
THOU ART MY CHILD, I AM IN THEE
SO WHY ARE YOU EMPTY WHEN YOUR LIFE IS FULL OF ME

EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS
EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS MINE
ALL THE TREASURES OF THE WORLD
ALL THE BEAUTY THAT YOU FIND
ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS CHOOSE
ALL YOU REALLY GOTTA DO IS DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT INSIDE

YOU’RE IN HEAVEN, NOW YOU ARE HERE
BUT TO STAY HERE YOU MUST BE AWARE OF WHO YOU REALLY ARE
YOU ARE THE KEY THAT OPENS THE DOOR
SO OPEN YOUR MIND AND FIND OUT WHAT LIFE IS FOR

EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS
EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS MINE
ALL THE TREASURES OF THE WORLD
ALL THE BEAUTY THAT YOU FIND
ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS CHOOSE
ALL YOU REALLY GOTTA DO IS DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT INSIDE

EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS
EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS MINE
THE SUN, THE MOON AND ALL THE STARS
AND EVERY SINGLE THING THAT SHINES IN THIS UNIVERSE BELONGS TO YOU
ALL YOU REALLY GOTTA DO IS DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT
IT’S UP TO YOU MY BELOVED
ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS LET IT IN, LET IT IN
ACCEPT IT, INSIDE

Test of Trust Sunday Service


I understand that every person in my life is a reflection of me. Letting go of judgment, I choose to see beauty in all people in my life. And So It Is!

Compassion and Connection

The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another." Thomas Merton
This video is the Charter for Compassion and is beautiful to see all the different  ages cultures and regions represented.


It is the golden thread of truth running through all religions to care for others. In our journal today, we are encouraged to connect when we are feeling ashamed or defeated. Brene Brown, the current researcher on shame states that we must stop trying to be perfect. She further encourages us to stop trying to hide our imperfections from our loved ones but rather to have the courage to tell the truth about our experience to someone whom we can trust. Please reach out if you are feeling discouraged or alone. I would love to be of service as would all our ministerial staff and practitioners.

If you would like to be more compassionate, watch the following video, in which Jason Silva shows how we are hard-wired for compassion. He shows six-month old babies responding with compassion. He also shows us how we can increase our compassionate responses.

I trust that you will enjoy.

The Science of Happiness


Did you know you can take a class from UC Berkeley which teaches how to be happy? 

"Created by UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center, the course will zero in on a fundamental finding from positive psychology: that happiness is inextricably linked to having strong social connections and contributing to something bigger than yourself—the greater good." 


"The Greater Good Science Center studies the psychology, sociology, and neuroscience of well-being, and teaches skills that foster a thriving, resilient, and compassionate society."
