Choose God’s Lessons

Robert:
Today I was reminded of A Course in Miracles, Workbook Lesson 193, “All things are lessons God would have me learn.” It’s becoming more and more clear to me that whatever appears to be my circumstance, what I perceive with the body and what I think it means, is just the setting for the lesson God would have me learn. Lesson 193 offers an affirmation to use in response “to every apprehension, every care and every form of suffering… I will forgive, and this will disappear.” (W-pI.193.13:3-4)

My job in every moment is to choose to learn the lesson of forgiveness God would have me learn. The ego is always there offering its lesson that separation and death are real. If I choose the ego’s lesson I get to experience the continuation of guilt and fear the ego offers. But God continues to offer His lesson so that if I choose the ego in one moment, the next moment I have the opportunity to choose once again. It is impossible to condemn myself eternally to hell. I always have an opportunity to choose again.

The more I choose God’s lessons, the happier I am and the more peace I experience. I think I am getting it: To be happy, choose God’s lessons! I am grateful for what I have learned from the Course and through practicing the Workbook lessons. The Light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter. The increasing happiness and peace shows me the practice is working and it is worth the effort.

Today I will practice reminding myself with every appearance I perceive that disturbs my peace in any way: I will forgive, and this will disappear.

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Today practice letting go and letting God. Today practice putting all your thoughts on God’s Altar so that what is not true is washed away. Today practice letting your mind relax. Let your mind quiet and go with the flow of Holy Spirit’s guidance in each present moment. This practice will lead you to the experience of peace, simplicity and ease.
