Did you know that our little book of inspirations and meditations, The Daily Word, is now 100 years young? A centennial publication that sends out small words with a big impact into our daily lives. How beautiful is it that UNITY has been able to accomplish this?
In a world where things are disposable, upgradable, forgotten and ever changing, UNITY has managed to keep up and evolve into an irreplaceable part of our daily lives. As a person relatively new to UNITY, and as our church's media person, I have found the Daily Word to be one of my favorite things to post on our facebook page. The word choices and scripture snippets often spark my more philosophical part of my mind. The words sometimes excite me because suddenly I have thoughts that I want to share with anyone willing to listen. Is that not fascinating? This is a book where maybe the words repeat themselves but the quotes and verses do not.
One hundred years is a long time to exist yet is but an infancy in the scheme of time. For one hundred years, the Daily Word has somehow managed to keep stimulating our thoughts and spirits. It leaves me in awe. That a spiritual community can speak to so many without becoming something almost robotic and compulsive.
It is a beautiful thing to know this publication, the simplest thing UNITY does, has been around long enough to touch people for the last one hundred years. Here, here to the Daily Word and its next one hundred years!
