The 3 Breaths
"When it's time to get living, it's time to get giving."
"When it's time to get living, it's time to get giving."
God is the divine givingness of the Universe. And you are created in the image-likeness of this divine givingness. You cannot make any sense out of life or realize the free flow of substance in your experience until you begin to see yourself as a giver. It may mean a complete turnaround in your approach to life, where you think "give" instead of "get. " In your spiritual quest, you are seeking to establish yourself in a unitive relationship with the divine flow. You can never really achieve this level of consciousness until giving becomes the main thrust of your life. And when it does, when you discover the wonder of giving, you become, unblushingly, an incurable giver. Meditate long on this point, fruit is one of the most important keys of the prosperity law. Life for the whole person is a giving process. –Spiritual Economics, Eric Butterworth, pg 169.
It is a great truth that "love begets love. " We have only to start practicing the circulation of loving thoughts, words, and actions in our life to prove this. It is correspondingly true that if we desire much joy and happiness, we must radiate more happiness into other lives. If we want more vigor and vitality, we must put to work the physical energy we already have. If we want success and prosperity, we must use the utmost what is already ours. In other words, stagnation his death but circulation in is life. Prosperity is sixth Commandment therefore is this: Thou shall not take thy wealth out of circulation. –Prosperity's Ten Commandments, Georgiana Tree West, pg 36.
The Coin of Love
Your real wealth is–How much Life or Love you have. Love is the willingness of Life to give. Use Love as you would use money. Spend it lavishly. Love is the magnet that draws things to you.
Say, "Divine Love in me is an irresistible magnet drawing my good to me instantly. "
Love is the universal coin that reaches out to all. Love is giving, not hard gold, but silver-gold thoughts, helping people find themselves and return to their true heritage of wealth. So, you buy everything you want on the Spiritual plane with Love, Joy and Praise.
The Coin of Praise
Praise is Love's avenue of expression, a form of Love. Use it and mean it. Praise anything or anybody, and he will instantly respond to you and give you his best. It is the Spirit of Consciousness of God or Love within you which is the source of your true wealth. The more you draw upon it the more it will increase.
The Coin of Joy
Joy is the "How " you get what you want. Pour Joy through you by getting in the mood of delight, then think of the things you want, and poor Joy into them, and you stimulate them into activity. This activity of Joy is contagious.
–YOU, Frances Wilshire, pg 37 - 38.

God is more completely expressed through the man who lives largely than through the one who lives meagerly. Fear is a belief in limitation, a denial that the Divine is the Center and the Source of all good. “Perfect love casts out fear;” that is, confidence overcomes the depression of doubt... To overcome fear is the greatest adventure of the mind of man. –The Science of Mind, Ernest Holmes, pg 404.

Sharing
I share my blessings with effortless generosity.
Today I practice prosperity by sharing my blessings. When I receive a sum of money or something else of value, I share it. I consider organizations and individuals who feed me spiritually and give back to them with my time, talent, and treasure. I enjoy sharing and notice how my generosity lifts the spirits of others.
Charles Fillmore, cofounder of Unity, taught that “we increase whatever we praise.” When I notice someone has done well, gone above and beyond, or has said or done something inspiring, I praise them. Appreciating them makes me happy! Seeing the joy on another’s face is reason enough to generously share my praise and blessings.
They broke bread ... with glad and generous hearts ... And day by day the Lord added to their numbers those who were being saved.–Acts 2:46-47

They followed a daily discipline of worship in the Temple followed by meals at home, every meal a celebration, exuberant and joyful, as they praised God. People in general liked what they saw. Every day their number grew as God added those who were saved.

The Funniest Thing! Mail Bag
From Paul Lucas, Butler, PA
Hello Darrell and Ed. I am listening to your latest show (Freedom’s just another word…) where Darrell ( think its Darrell) is talking about his distress.
Have you read “Heart-Shaped Metaphysics” by Paul Hassellbeck? In there they talk about chemicalization? It is a process we go through when we try to adopt these new ideas and when they come up against the unworthy thoughts we used to have. It sounds like you might be going through this. Read up on it. Also they talk about it on an episode of Metaphysical Romp. You can find it by using the search feature on the unity fm site.
Best Wishes, Paul Lucas your friend and fan.
From Cathie Quinn, Culver City, CA
Cleaned the floors, vacuumed the rugs, polished the furniture and cleaned the kitchen, all while getting spiritually fit listening to Funniest Thing! with Darrell and Ed Now that's what I call efficiency!!! Thanks guys.
From Blind Bobby Biggs Tampa, FL
Hi guys. It's Bobby also known as Ace. I hope you are doing well. I like this topic about having freedom over my thoughts; could've used it last week when I was going to visit a good friend. Being that things have been changing in my life I wasn't so sure about this friend of mine who has been in my life for three and a half years. Well, God took care of everything. I had a great weekend. Now I'm back and I'm about to take my nap. Keep me in prayer this summer
Because we are now in our thunderstorm season. That's never a fun time of year for me. Thank you for everything. Love you guys.

This episode's 'funniest thing' story included this heart-warming request for a signed copy of Darrell's book, What If Godzilla Just Wanted a Hug?
Hi. I'm buying this for my friend's son. He just turned 16 and is a talented illustrator with his own sense of humor that he brings out in his characters. He's starting home schooling because of several bullying instances at school. Despite everything he's been through, he remains a bright light, cheerful and positive young man, always willing to show you his next creation. He's taught us by example to lead with our hearts, so it is a pleasure to share this with him. Thank you.
