Being a Miracle Worker Is Everyone’s True Life Purpose

by Revs. Robert & Mary Stoelting, Co-founders of Pathways of Light

We are all miracle workers in training. We have forgotten our way back but now we know that we have a constant Companion, the Holy Spirit, to lead us back to our true Identity. 

A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 283 returns us to the truth of our shared Identity and helps us forgive or let go of our false perceptions of being separate and alone:

“Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I call the Son of God. Yet is creation is as it always was, for your creation is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am he my Father loves. My holinesss remains the light of Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light of Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You created everything that is?

“Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our Father as our only Source, and everything created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all things, united lovingly with all the world, which our forgiveness has made one with us.” (W-pII.283.1-2)

The Island

by Rev. Joyce Peebles, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

Someone said, “The island of knowledge is surrounded by the shore of ignorance.” I am this island of Love surrounded by all my false beliefs. This ego body knows nothing of real knowledge for it was made for the opposite purpose, which is to prove I am a separate individual, somehow lacking and alone. This mindset is the ignorance Jesus is telling us about in A Course in Miracles.

I have felt guided, even “pushed” at times, to do things. This guidance is always provided in small increments, which I now know is related to my willingness to receive. It also seems to come on a need-to-know basis. The impatient side of me wants the whole enchilada now. Holy Spirit can only give me what I am willing to accept. My fear stands in the way. I have not always been willing to see my fear and resistance. Very slowly I am learning to trust what the Holy Spirit tells me is true.

Despite thinking of myself as spiritual and having this guidance, I have gone through this life being judgmental of myself and others and until most recently not knowing why. I was unaware that in reality I can not judge anyone but myself. What I see in the world is a projection of my own guilt onto others.

The First Tuesday of the Month

by Rev. Larry Glenz, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

I am very grateful for the Minister Touch-in call on the first Tuesday of the month at 11am ET. It is an opportunity for Pathways ministers to share how their ministry and their spiritual life is unfolding. It just feels good for me to share my gratitude for the program in my life that focuses me on Holy Spirit and the book that speaks God’s Word to me.

I am in my 28th year as a Course student and my 14th year as an Ordained Ministerial Counselor (O.M.C.) for my global church, Pathways of Light. I had no desire to take on a title such as Reverend or Minister. I did, however, want to take the Course deeper. Although I considered ACIM to be a self-study path of mind training, I wanted to share it with other Course students.

Plan, What Plan? Spirit’s of Course

by Rev. Robin Singler, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

This journey of undoing the concepts I believe in sure is a ride of surprises! The last couple of years of my life have been a fast-moving series of changes: Leaving a stable job to move to three different states, getting divorced, relying on the kindness of others for places to live, recovering from a disabling knee injury, and bouncing from job to job with little more than a couple weeks of cash in my bank account at times.

Each event along the way has come with intense periods of darkness; I’ve had to face my belief that events and circumstances could have been avoided if only I’d been better at something; forgiveness, making decisions, loving myself and others, practicing the Course, etc. If I weren’t so flawed, stupid and resistant, I wouldn’t have to go through this, that and the other thing. The main message these thoughts tell me is that I’m not good enough, and that everything “bad” is my fault and I deserve punishment.

These periods of deep suffering always have the same result, though. Eventually I am brought to the point where I’ve had enough pain and I take a BIG step back in my mind and remember that God doesn’t agree with me, that I must be wrong. How could I be as guilty and condemned as I tell myself I am? The habit of relying on my own interpretations of my life is being undone with each life event.

How Would You Have Me See This?

by Rev. Dan Strodl, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

I try not to read the news because I see it as ego food, and I feel more peaceful not knowing what’s going on in the world. But in the last few days news stories have been coming to me while chatting with neighbors, emails from my family, and phone calls from friends. They have all been talking about Putin invading the Ukraine, and Russia putting the world on nuclear alert.

I couldn’t resist finding out more about what’s happening, so I dived into the news, and the more I delved, the more I was filled with terror! I couldn’t shake it off and I was stuck in hell.

But then I remembered that I have a Guide that is always there for me, and will bring me back to peace. So I took my terror to the Holy Spirit and asked… “How would you have me see this?” And this is what came to me:

Trusting Holy Spirit’s Lead

by Rev. David J. Richardson, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

I am in South Korea (retired Military). My wife and I live in Dongducheon-si (Camp Casey). How we got here (Dongducheon), is a story all by itself.

March 2021- My wife comes to me, and says we need to find a house/apartment because we had to move out of the apartment by the middle of September 2021. I told her not to worry, it was all in His hands. She looked at me kind of, “Yeah, but I’ll still search the papers,” and with that, she went on searching the papers for an apartment. Every day was an apartment coming to rent (sometimes two or three apartments) …every day was a flop. It didn’t have this, or that (most of the time was parking below ground and handicap access).

April 2021- My wife again comes to me, and, again, says we’ve got to find an apartment because it was getting too close to the time we were to move. I told her not to worry, that the Holy Spirit had told me He would get involved in it. She didn’t believe in this, though she had been a big “church goer” much of her life.

“Pause” for War

by Rev. Mary Lenihan, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

In October 2009 when I first received PAUSE, the words that bolted into my awareness were:

We all need training on how to be helpful.

The moment this thought was heard, WNYHOO-NOW! World Needs Your Help One - to - One - NOW! began.

A few moments down the road, another thought was given:

”THIS IS FOR THE WHOLE WORLD.”

DON’T THINK THE WORLD NEEDS YOUR HELP?

Such is the sorrowful saga of the cubicle self heart÷mind who sees only its own reflections, hears only its own sighs.

”KNOCK, KNOCK,” says your Inspired Self.” Who’s there?” says the cubicle self.

”IT IS I,”

”I who?”

”I AM your Inspired Self. Why are you looking for LIFE amid your own reflections, the living among the dead?”

As we pause to access Inner Wisdom,on some level, it helps everyone access Inner Wisdom. True Wisdom is always Safe, Kind, Wise, and Truly Helpful.
