Let me remember I am one with God.
* One with God does not mean you ARE God or the one that everyone should listen to, like the false teachers of Jesus’ words teach, it means you “FOLLOW GOD’S DIRECTION THROUGH SPIRIT” AS JESUS DOES.
* I will admit that this is growing on me, and it means I am more confident.
* Even in this new environment, I am willing to be me and let the chips fall, if you will.
* I actually see it as a tool of protection for myself and them. I am certain that others do not see it that way. They may consider me selfish, boastful, or abrasive depending on how they view the costume they are wearing “in ego.”
* Remember the “mirror” factor. They will either see Father and the Son walking hand in hand through my “form” or they will any number of false bravados on the full spectrum of ego association as a replacement of God, our Father.
1. Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God.
²Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and strength available to us in all our undertakings.
³We can fail in nothing.
⁴Everything we touch takes on a shining light that blesses and that heals.
⁵At one with God and with the universe we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes everywhere with us.
* I am going to expound on this. These things I know inside on level, we ALL do. However, we are undoing the mental convolutions of living with the belief of separation, and this will take time to manifest fully in what is stated above.
* I say this because I do not want you thinking everything is now “hunky dory,” “peachy keen,” or “cool.” Because it likely will not be.
* Be patient, trust, and by all means LISTEN to Father through SPIRIT within for guidance and BREATH, slowly, knowing you are guided and safe in HIS care even if your is ended or all hell seems to break out in relationships and circumstances.
* That said, you will feel a firmer foundation growing under you that has nothing to do with gravity or solid ground and everything to do with recognizing our relationship and symbiotic dependence on FATHER.
2. How holy are our minds!
* Remember that holy is NOT better than or even without mistake; holy is whole, complete, without separation from all that is OR Father.
²And everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at one with God and with itself.
* In other words, when we look at the world, we will begin to see one symbiotic fluid entity of Father and Son. This may happen rapidly or slowly as we allow SPIRIT to show us how to “undo” our convoluted vision or how we see the world. He may guide us to see family or work situations differently. Maybe political agendas will be where we will start. This often means we will experience upheaval before the calm is seen IN FORM. Bear in mind the peace that comes from knowing that GOD IS and is among us always, does not leave.
³How easily do errors disappear, and death give place to everlasting life.
⁴Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world a little while.
⁵And those who come to follow us will recognize the way because the light we carry stays behind, yet still remains with us as we walk on.
* This is important to remember: “the light we carry stays behind, yet still remains with us as we walk on.” It is a starting point for us to shift into God Mind rather than ego because it speaks to ABUNDANCE and not to lack.
3. What we receive is our eternal gift to those who follow after, and to those who went before or stayed with us a while.
* Do you “see and hear” how it clears up both the past and the future?
²And God, Who loves us with the equal love in which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave. ![]()
4. Today we will not doubt His Love for us, nor question His protection and His care. ²No meaningless anxieties can come between our faith and our awareness of His Presence.
³We are one with Him today in recognition and remembrance.
⁴We feel Him in our hearts.
⁵Our minds contain His Thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. ⁶Today we see only the loving and the lovable.
* This “loving and lovable” has been so abused by ego. REMEMBER that LOVE, as does everything else that is real, COMES FROM FATHER. THIS REALIZATION AND OUR “SECONDARY” STATUS IS VITAL TO KEEPING US HUMBLE AS WE FUNCTION INDIVIDUALLY WITHIN THE COLLECTIVE.
* SEE FATHER AND SON.
* I am gaining better understanding of this all of the time. I think there may be layers as we peel back how we have allowed ourselves to “IMAGINE” things are through egoic thoughts.
5. We see it in appearances of pain, and pain gives way to peace.
* What is the “it” we see? It would be the Father and the Son, the Loving and the lovable.
²We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the distressed, the lonely and afraid, who are restored to the tranquility and peace of mind in which they were created.
* What is the “it” we see? It would be the Father and the Son, the Loving and the lovable.
³And we see it in the dying and the dead as well, restoring them to life.
* What is the “it” we see? It would be the Father and the Son, the Loving and the lovable.
* Restoring them to Eternal Life, having the ability to change form without losing their identity as children of God in the Plan of Salvation and in ALL LIVES and CIRCUMSTANCES,
⁴All this we see because we saw it first within ourselves.
* …through the witness of Father AS WE ACKNOWLEDGED HYMN.
6. No miracle can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with God.
²No thought of theirs but has the power to heal all forms of suffering in anyone, in times gone by and times as yet to come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them now.
* This is the redemption that Christians have sought and been taught will happen after their death by those who would deny freedom and power to the Son of God NOW.
³Their thoughts are timeless, and apart from distance as apart from time.
* “Their” would be Father and Son, the Loving and lovable.
* Do you see the difference? Otherwise, we “see” “duality” or division and separation within the Son where there is NONE.
7. We join in this awareness as we say that we are one with God.
²For in these words we say as well that we are saved and healed; that we can save and heal accordingly.
* Be careful that you do not interpret this to say you ARE God because is ego’s gig.
* We are one with God in purpose, and in understanding that there is no division or lack, and could never have been.
³We have accepted, and we now would give.
⁴For we would keep the gifts our Father gave.
⁵Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our recognition of reality.
* From the Atonement, we understand that God Is ALL THINGS and that ALL CREATION is His Son.
⁶In our experience the world is freed.
⁷As we deny our separation from our Father, it is healed along with us.
* Be careful how you hear this. The way it is worded is CONFUSING to me.
* IT MEANS THAT WHEN WE RECOGNIZE FATHER IN US AND ALL THINGS, WE ARE HEALED.
8. Peace be to you today.
²Secure your peace by practicing awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is with you.
³Sometime today, whenever it seems best, devote a half an hour to the thought that you are one with God.
⁴This is our first attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules nor special words to guide your meditation.
⁵We will trust God’s Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will not fail.
⁶Abide with Him this half an hour.
⁷He will do the rest.
* Having the lesson itself suggests that you will not be able to maintain it, but I ASSURE you that this was not Jesus’ intent. His example shows us that it can be maintained, and as each of us live it others will be reminded that they can do it as well.
9. Your benefit will not be less if you believe that nothing happens.
²You may not be ready to accept the gain today.
³Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, nor will you fail to recognize it when it dawns with certainty upon your mind.
⁴This half an hour will be framed in gold, with every minute like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise will offer you.
⁵And you will see Christ’s face upon it, in reflection of your own.
* The idea of you being a part of Christ is being presented here but it will not take hold until you accept the Atonement. (which forgives the original error that believed in the possibility of separation from God, SEES the FATHER and His Innocent Son, thereafter following Father’s Guidance through SPIRIT within.
10. Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will see your own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour will hold out to you, to look upon yourself.
²When you are ready you will find it there, within your mind and waiting to be found. ³You will remember then the thought to which you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time was ever better spent.
11. Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will look into this glass, and understand the sinless light you see belongs to you; the loveliness you look on is your own.
²Count this half hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you cannot understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy for the body’s eyes to see.
* Do not let this statement make this all seem impossible to experience on a consistent level. It will remain in your heart like a low key hum that does not go away.
³And yet you can be sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will understand and comprehend and see.
12. Add further jewels to the golden frame that holds the mirror offered you today, by hourly repeating to yourself:
²Let me remember I am one with God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, in everlasting holiness (*WHOLENESS) and peace.
* The idea of “holiness” described this way, promotes separation and is a FALSE PRINCIPLE BEFORE GOD because the Whole Sonship is seen as EQUAL before HYMN:
holiness (noun) · Holiness (noun) · Holinesses (plural noun)
1. the state of being holy:
“a life of holiness and total devotion to God”
• (His/Your Holiness)
a title given to the Pope, Orthodox patriarchs, and the Dalai Lama, or used in addressing them.
• denoting a Christian renewal movement originating in the mid 19th century among Methodists in the US, emphasizing the Wesleyan doctrine of the sanctification of believers.
* The teachings of Jesus say that we are WHOLE and Wholly WITHIN GOD.
(ACIM, W-124.1:1–12:2)
Till next time, God Bless, debi.
