In all encounters with people, you have basically two ways of relating. Either you will give love, or you will withhold love. When you give love, you are in alignment with the Golden Rule, and recognize that the only strategy...
This is a big lesson for me and everyone: How to love all the time. It's natural, but our divine nature to always love and express love has been blocked by fear, attack thoughts, grievances, hatred etc.
When other people seem...
In recognition that we are already perfect and were created perfect, it iapparent that we only need to remember and accept that perfection is ALREADY TRUE OF US, in order to awaken.
And so I asked Jesus, what about this entire...
For a while I'd thought that by asking Holy Spirit to decide for or asking Jesus to decide, it meant sort of a 'giving up' of deciding.
Lately especially in light of free will I've been seeing it a bit differently,...
Gradually over time Jesus has been trying to teach me about freedom.
He would say, "you are free". I would be trying to decide whether to do something or not, whether I'm allowed to, whether it's the right thing, etc. I...
Jesus is truth-full. He is honest. He is awake. He is aware of everything. He does not lie. He has no reason to hide anything.
Since Jesus IS the Atonement, in order to "accept" the Atonement we are going to have...
Contemplating the seemingly huge gap between where I am at and where God is at, I asked myself, what will it take to learn the whole truth?
It seemed then that the "whole" of the truth I was trying to learn...
If someone is not loving you, and you are trying hard to figure out why they won’t, and you are desperate for them to love you, you’re not going to be happy.
If you have a need for the person to...
There is part of you which is already in heaven with God. It never left.
That means your spirit-self is already awake and one with God.
Jesus says that like you, He has everything that God gave Him. The only difference between...
If someone is not loving you, and you are trying hard to figure out why they won’t, and you are desperate for them to love you, you’re not going to be happy.
If you have a need for the person to...
If you are going to pray for someone, you’ll need to first discern what the problem really is.
The problem is NOT what is happening to the person, what they perceive as happening to them, or what your own ego says...
I love learning about miracles.
There are kind of two levels or layers of mind. The higher level is filled with love. It is a mind at-one with others and filled with God’s Will. It has no ego, has let go...
It is to clearly recognize when something is an illusion and when it is reality.
It is only because we have become convinced that illusions are real, that they have truth to them, and give them credit, that we are experiencing...
You get what you ask for and nothing else.
How you "ask", is a state of prayer.
"Prayer is the medium of miracles."
Another way to describe asking, is INVITATION.
If you INVITE GOD, by showing up in a role of miracle-worker, trusting God...
In many areas of life at the moment, Holy Spirit's guidance to me is to "try".
I have seen in many ways how I stop myself or don't do something, on the basis of the ego's justifications, which basically goes like...
To the ego, it will not attempt to teach anything that it does not already know. It relies entirely on its own learning or what it already believes is true.
In this sense, everything within the ego thought system has already...
Sometimes people say that concepts have to be let go. The course even says that concepts have to be let go. The course even says to let go of the course and come to God with empty hands.
Yes. However, the...
When shitty stuff happens, you want it to stop.
But it's a lesson. It's trying to teach you something. Its motive of teaching is very much for you and supportive of you and helping you. It is not a motive...
There is a pivotal moment when you let go of the ego's hand and decide to take the hand of Christ.
This can and will happen in many scenarios and many times over. And it's going to happen in your "real...
At the beginning, prayer seems to be like asking for something you do not have.
But this is the opposite of prayer. It does not produce anything DIRECTLY, it only affirms what you already have, because it emphasizes that it is...
