Rest does not come from sleeping but from waking. The Holy Spirit is the Call to awaken and be glad. The world is very tired, because it is the idea of weariness. Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for God. Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as One. What better vocation could there be for any part of the Kingdom than to restore it to the perfect integration that can make it whole? Hear only this through the Holy Spirit within you, and teach your brothers to listen as I am teaching you. T-5.II.10: 4 - 10

The Integral philosophers describe “growing up,” and “waking up.” Growing up is the biological process of maturing and “waking up” is related to an elevation of consciousness. As human beings we grow up during our life cycle, but waking up is induced by our cultural and individual curiosity. Jesus woke up and asks us to join him by following his example in the waking up process. Jesus tells us that we all have a calling for God and the Holy Spirit calls to us to awaken but it’s up to us whether we choose to get out of bed. If we choose to get out of bed it is suggested that we ask our brothers and sisters to awaken and get out of bed and join us.
In Unitarian Universalism we join together to affirm and promote the acceptance of one another and the encouragement to spiritual growth.
Today, it is suggested that we choose to enter the path of waking up. We do this by practicing loving one another. Who should I love? Whoever crosses your path today.
