A version of this sermon was preached to the Foothills Unitarian Universalist Fellowship on May 2, 2021. Everyone has a heartsong- the notes that sing from within that tell the story of who we are and our deepest longings. One of the many gifts of novels, memoirs, movies and tv shows is that we have the opportunity to draw connections and watch patterns emerge as characters develop. Noticing these patterns can become incredibly helpful in understanding our own patterns of relating to others, ourselves and the world. Hearing the heartsong in others helps us identify and claim our own heartsong better which empowers us to be co-authors of our own lives rather than being thrown to and fro by the curveballs of life. May you discover your heartsong and by the grace of God may you sing it aloud.
