My thoughts* on ACIM Lesson 164, full lesson without comment follows:
“Now are we one with Him Who is our Source.” .1. What time but now can truth be recognized? ²The present is the only time there is. ³And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there; not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ..*This paragraph is misleading. If not downright incorrect. Why? Because you and I … Read More My thoughts* on ACIM Lesson 164, full lesson without comment follows:
Religion Cannot Help But Divide
God IS and nothing else is able to defy Him because He is all there is. Humanity has long-held beliefs that plague it and perpetuate confusion. So much so that we believe in general that freedom is anarchy and would create devastation. We will eventually need to look at what we are doing to ourselves. It could be done sooner than later but sadly, … Read More Religion Cannot Help But Divide
Mental Illness Can Be So Subtle
I have known someone since birth and it is only 45 years later that I see what I cannot undo. Try as I might to be kind and extend love it is sent back to me as an attack that I can no longer “not see” and that others close to her refuse to see or address. I do realize that I have no … Read More Mental Illness Can Be So Subtle
Before the Holiday Season Let Us Reflect
We can be so much more. Reading from Mama’s Christmas Carol, You Got the Power, Mom! by Debra (Debi) Yvonne Simmons. It is vital that we teach others “to seek” to know themselves by doing so ourselves. Each of us lives in a world entirely of the makings of our own mind in line with the Universal Plan that has us each fulfilling a … Read More Before the Holiday Season Let Us Reflect
Freedom Is The Allowance To Follow One’s Will
Freedom happens within one’s understanding. Debra (Debi) Yvonne Simmons 3 min read I am attempting to do weekly readings as the “unveiling” allows. Living the Atonement raises awareness for the Whole Sonship, which is “all that is” within the mind of God. ⁶In the service of the right mind the denial of error frees the mind, and re-establishes the freedom of the will. ⁷When … Read More Freedom Is The Allowance To Follow One’s Will
Some Thoughts While Coming Out of Lockdown

Just be sure to include being compassionate and courteous to yourself.We all know what this means.What is important to recognize as we transition into life again, and hopefully, into life from the place of the Atonement, is that not everyone is healthy mentally.In fact, most of us … Read More Some Thoughts While Coming Out of Lockdown
Summer Breeze
Change is for physical enjoyment and not required for peace of mind. This weeks reading: Illness affects us when we close our minds to the Christ that we are. Unitedly we make up the Sonship.Only the Atonement frees us from our horrific illusion of being separate.We allow a lot in our society in the name of gathering.I would like to think that Covid19 gave … Read More Summer Breeze
Forgiveness Must Be Understood
It lifts us out of this society and into heaven’s presence. Forgive the original error, with gratitude, for all those who would join you in this forgiveness. The others who join you in this forgiveness enlarge the awareness of the divinity within and carry us to our ultimate awareness of Christ, God’s Son and all that is, which is what we ARE. The Universal Plan … Read More Forgiveness Must Be Understood
God Wants To Bless Us
Why do we keep refusing? Even in the hurricane there is a place of calm and joy. (Please allow me some personal “balancing time” before the reading. Thank you.) Well, I figured out why I have been so “loopy” and not on my game as a writer. It turns out I have been dealing with vertigo for over a year now. Having your body … Read More God Wants To Bless Us
It Is His Story, Not Ours: Let Us “See” Christ and Set Him Free To Bless Us
You have an identity and you have relationships; they just may not be what you “see” today. What do I mean by that? I mean that ARE because God declared it so but the role you play here may have very little to do with who you really are. Life is NOT what we have been led to believe that it is! In this … Read More It Is His Story, Not Ours: Let Us “See” Christ and Set Him Free To Bless Us
Spring Reading
There is a Universal Plan, and you have a role in it that you volunteered for. Be the “superheroes” you signed up to be. Do not get hung up on what you see in your life as yourself. Your job, your height, hair color, economic status, family relationships, love-life, none of these things define who you are and they in no way reflect your worth. You … Read More Spring Reading
