In this week's talk, Rev. Patrick draws from Tim Minchin's commencement address at the University of Western Australia.
Have a passionate dedication to short-term goals. Work with pride on whatever is in front of you. Make it your aim to make someone else happy. Realize the enormous gift that life is. Keep moving. Question opinions, including your own. Define yourself by what you love. Respect those with less power than you. Don't rush: You don't need to know what to do for the rest of your life. Fill your life with as much as you can. Learn as much as you can about as much as you can. Take your good where you find it and leave the rest alone. Take pride in whatever you're doing.
Realize that your divine inheritance is self-sufficiency. It is also perfection, peace, and wholeness. And this must include abundance, self-expression, accomplishment, and happiness.
Therefore, realize that God's will for your life is wholeness, peace, poise, power, and self-expression.
