In Chapter 24 of A Course in Miracles, the first two sentences in paragraph two of the Introduction read, “To learn this course requires willingness to question every value you hold. Not one can be kept hidden…” When I first read this eight years ago, I thought, “This seems simple. I should probably ace this course in no time at all!” What I didn’t realize was that I was using ego to interpret the directions.

I was asking the Holy Spirit, “How do I hear you?” I was feeling that others heard and spoke of the Holy Spirit so much easier. Their words flowing and abundant, I love hearing from them. My connection comes more in the form of written words each morning.
As I sit and write from Spirit, I am connected. After I have written and continue with ACIM daily lessons or the Text, it seems to say what I’ve just written. My goal is to remember… to remember through the day, so again I asked this question, “How do I hear you, Holy Spirit?

I have been experiencing many symptoms in the body lately. The dentist told me I had infections in my gums and if I didn’t take care of them, they could spread to my body and I could die. Ooooooh! Fear coming up big time. The dentist; isn’t he an expert? Isn’t he someone who knows? Shouldn’t I trust him? Who should I trust?

My family came from New Jersey for their week’s vacation and I got to baby sit for the 10-month old while they went on their outings. What a gift! I love babies to start with and he was the most loving, snuggly baby who loved to be rocked and held. Just up grandma’s alley!

How many times have you been in a team meeting or group situation and had the thoughts of, “Wow, they have their act together!” or “I wish my new team was buttoned up like my old team”? Even with an individual person, you can have these kinds of thoughts, and then you confide in another ‘trusted’ person to share your ‘perceived observations’ of the other individual’s achievements or inadequacies.

I was listening to a beautiful song that was being sung by the Indian woman Pocahontas in the animated film titled the same; and one of the phrases in the song was, “Have you ever seen the colors of the wind?”

Excuses are the greatest
hidden barriers
towards Oneness with God.
We want this Oneness with Love;
We long for Love and nothing else

It is amazing how, when I go through the Workbook lessons, that day’s lesson brings out, in form, what I am working on as I go about my daily routine.
A few days ago, I was working on Lesson 200, “There is no peace except the peace of God.” Before leaving for work, I read the lesson and did my morning meditation on the phrase as I always do according to the Workbook instructions.

I am Spirit. I am eternal. I am Light. I am unconditional Love. I am perfect. I am pure. I am whole. I am healthy. I am limitless. I am strong. I am blessed. I am safe. I am abundant. I am truth. I am peace. I am worthy.
I am as God created me.

Let yourself relax… Let go of your grip on your body… Let the tension melt away…
Give time to accepting the peace that is inherently yours as a Child of God…
Give time to letting peace fill your mind… and body…

Tomas awakened quite some time before he left the body. There was no ‘individual, personal’ Tomas left. He was like the Christ — open, loving and joyous, regardless of all appearances with the body. It was not his body after all and he knew this. He used the illusion of sickness to awaken quickly, to overcome the world. He chose to prioritize peace above all else, quite literally.

Mary — Healing is always changed perception. I need a changed perception whenever I am not feeling the peace of my true Self. Changed perception comes from the Holy Spirit when I am willing to receive. “The Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them away.” (T-6.V.4:4) The following are some examples:

Our journey begins
the day we first arrive.
Roles, masks and secrets
become our tools to survive.
Love, compassion and acceptance
is for what we strive, but, in childhood,
into an empty pool do we dive.

I have recently been contemplating what an important part all of the opportunities for ‘joining’ have played in my journey of healing in this lifetime. As with many of us, A Course in Miracles and related texts have been the foundation of my healing process along with my dedication and indescribable connection to our brother Jeshua.

Recently I recalled a moment in time when I was sitting next to my father. He was talking and I sat in awe of his knowledge and all that was in his mind. In contrast, I searched my seven year old mind and found it blank. I wanted to be like my dad. Many times this memory has come to me throughout the years.
