My thoughts* on Workbook Lesson 266, for September 22, 2024. My wholly Self is you, God’s Son.

My holy Self abides in you, God’s Son.

* DAMN!

* SO CLOSE!

* My wholly Self is you, God’s Son.

1. Father, You gave me all Your Sons, to be my saviors and my counselors in sight; the bearers of Your holy Voice to me.

* HERE they got it RIGHT! THERE ARE MANY OF US, WITHOUT NUMBER AND WE ARE EACH SAVIORS AND WITNESSES TO THE FACT THAT GOD IS, AND WE SHARE FATHER’S COUNSEL WITH EACH OTHER. This is so beautiful!!!

* This does not mean that we take what anyone says verbatim or automatically. It means we listen to others as if God, Himself was speaking to us and pass it through the witness or understanding of the wholly Spirit within us to find the TRUTH. Remember that the Son (which is all of us and all that is, together and individually) is able to make mistakes, too, so we must be accountable for ourselves.

* You might want to look at that one again because it can be easily misunderstood.

* Let me clarify the concept that the Whole Sonship awakened to itself DOES NOT make mistakes but while we are each getting woke we will and that is okay.

²In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ look back upon me from my Self.

* There is great beauty and truth in this and in all that is.

³Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name.

* Love is the name but bear in mind that it is God’s Love that is REAL and God’s REALITY that gives any reality to anything that we are or that we do.

⁴Let not Your Son forget his holy (*wholly) Source.

⁵Let not Your Son forget his Name is Yours.

* LOVE is God’s Power IN us. This idea of using the term Name puts a confusing spin on what is being said. I suggest that is ego’s attempt to have us MISS the POINT that it is God that we get our power from and in FACT what we are.

2. This day we enter into Paradise, calling upon God’s Name and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us; united in the holy Love of God.

* Again, the wording is so “flowery” that the point is easily missed.

* IT IS GOD’s LOVE and LIFE that we are living!

* “This day we enter into Paradise (*Heaven seen once again because we never left), calling upon God’s Name (*Love) and on our own (*God’s Love is what we are and what we share), acknowledging our Self (*Christ, the Son of God) in each of us; united in the holy (*wholly) Love of God (*as all that is or ever could be).”

²How many saviors God has given us!

* Yes, many saviors, without number!

³How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the world with those who point to Him, and given us the sight to look on them?

* That “sight” is the wholly Spirit that Guides us along the way, step by step and Holy Instant by Holy Instant.

* Holy Instant is that moment in which one knows both the Father and the Son and hears the Voice of God in the wholly Spirit.
