My thoughts* on Workbook Lesson 270, for September 25, 2024.  In God, You Have the Power to “Translate All that the Body’s Eyes Behold into the Sight of a Forgiven World.”

I will not use the body’s eyes today.

* Because I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE MEANING OF ANYTHING HERE.

1. Father, Christ’s vision is Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the body’s eyes behold into the sight of a forgiven world.

* THAT is a MIRACLE. A FORGIVEN WORLD where GOD EXISTS in the PRESENCE and AWARENESS of His Son!!!

²How glorious and gracious is this world!

* In the world of attack, blame, and SIN I CANNOT SEE THIS WORLD>

³Yet how much more will I perceive in it than sight can give.

⁴The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time which ends forever, as Your memory returns to him.

* This is where I am today. Waiting. I thought I could bring others along with me but I have been shown that this is NOT SOMETHING THAT I CAN DO. It will be done by the wholly Spirit and the WILL of EACH INDIVIDUAL PART OF THE SON OF GOD.

⁵And now his will is one with Yours.

* Yes!

⁶His function now is but Your Own, and every thought except Your Own is gone.

* I have to admit that I can find myself second-guessing decisions that I thought came from Father, but I find that I am learning to trust my ability to be in tune or alignment with the Will of God.

* Lessons like this reassure me that this is where I am.

* NOT for anyone else but for me, I am here in alignment with Father for my existence.

* I cannot take on that role or responsibility for ANYONE else, no matter how much I would like to, or they would want me to.

* NOR can I follow another in their understanding of alignment with God.

* I MUST be FREE to walk by the Guidance within me.

* I believe that two people could WALK SIDE BY SIDE and HAND IN HAND ~ IF THEY WERE WILLING TO HONOR AND RESPECT THE RIGHT OF THEMSELVES AND EACH OTHER TO BE GUIDED BY DIVINE INSPIRATION AND CELEBRATE THAT REALITY AS THEY WALK IN GOD TOGETHER, not afraid to have differing ideas or even suggestions for different ways of viewing things with the END OF the ADDICTION TO SEPARATION of the Whole Body of Christ AS THEIR GOAL.

* WE MUST be free to walk beside others and be glad in existence as INDIVIDUALS within the Mind and Body of Christ Who is in the Mind and Will of God, the Father.

2. The quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone.

* Amen, because God will be recognized WITH ~EVERY PART~ of His Son.

²Christ is our eyes today.

* No, dears.

* FATHER is our Eyes today, as Christ.

³And through His sight we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole; the holy Son whom God created one.

* IT COULD ~ONLY~ BE GOD’S SIGHT THAT HEALS THE SON WHOM WE ARE A PART OF.

Till next time, God bless, debi.
