It Is Inevitable. We Will Get It.

by Rev. Mary Wongwai, O.M.C.

In my ACIM group today we began reading Chapter 22, the Introduction and Section 1. In this group we take turns reading a paragraph and we pause for questions or comments. Usually we glean better understanding by sharing impressions of the passages. The reading today, however, was landing in lots of different places. We didn’t have much input about the words. When people did comment it was not related to the Text.

BE STILL and Remember God

by Rev. Maria Felipe, O.M.C.

Through my ministerial training we had to listen to many different CD’s and get insight from Holy Spirit and write it down.

There is something that I wrote back in 2009 that I was inspired to find and not by chance! I feel it’s exactly where I find myself right now… It makes sense to me now… Back then it did not.

I share it with you and everyone. I know it’s for us all.

Pixel by Pixel

by Rev. Paula Richards, O.M.C.

I have been studying A Course in Miracles for almost three years. The ego tells me I should have “gotten it” by now. At times I do get frustrated and feel that I am not making any progress, but I keep doing the work.

When Ego Rules

by Rev. Anita Ottley, O.M.C.

It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything for the Miracles News magazine but recent events in my life inspired me to share an experience that has proven to be a valuable lesson for me. We all tend to get caught up in our day to day lives and sometimes when that happens, we end up losing touch with spirit. Ego loves when that happens because ego wants to jump right in there with all the judgments and negativity possible to keep us separate from one another.

Why Do You Imprison Your Brother?

by Rev. Michael Ciavarella, O.M.C.

It happened suddenly. I was not prepared for what the Voice would tell me that day. Of course, I know better than to allow myself to think ill of a brother, but nonetheless, there I was mumbling words of condemnation. “And there he is, doing…”

What he did doesn’t matter here. You know the story. I thought someone did something to me, so of course, I must find fault and tell myself that he is guilty of some imagined act.

That’s when it happened. Holy Spirit was as clear as any voice I could hear with my physical ears. The message was given in the usual gentle tone, but it pierced me like a razor-sharp sword.

Living from the Heart

by Rev. Etienne Pait

Have you stopped long enough to reflect why you were born? If so, has this reflection revealed there may be a purpose for living? Have you asked yourself fundamental questions, such as:  “Who am I? Why am I here? What is my purpose here?” Many of us sincerely do not ask these questions until we are confronted with a personal crisis threatening our status quo, a relationship, finances, livelihood or anything we hold dear to our hearts.

Being in a State of Miracle Mindedness in the Midst of Challenges

by Rev. Linda Wisniewski, O.M.C.

“You are not used to miracle-minded thinking, but you can be trained to think that way.” (T-2.VII; 1:9)
“Miracle working entails a full realization of the power of thought in order to avoid miscreation.” (T-2.VII.2:2)

I have used A Course in Miracles as my mind training program. Recently, I asked Holy Spirit to help me cultivate miracle minded thinking rather than magical thinking. Magical thinking for me means that I place my trust in the world and believe that the world and its ways will bring me happiness. It means that I look outward to others for my safety, well-being and happiness rather than turning to God.

Unearthing Our Unconscious Fear of God — An Exercise

by Rev. Nouk Sanchez, O.M.C.

Tomas, my soul buddy, left the body in December 2010. He left through what appeared as cancer of the body.

Tomas awakened within the ego dream (although he had not awakened from it) prior to leaving the body. In the Course, Jesus calls us to the next level of awakening which is from the ego dream of death entirely (refer to the excerpt on my blog titled, Why Jesus’ Teaching is the Quickest of all Spiritual Pathways. Here is the link: http://undoing-the-ego.org/noukblog/?p=387)

Clouds and Worries

by Rev. Veronika Wilcox, O.M.C.

Clouds can look dark
and threatening,
so it is with worry
thoughts and feelings,
they too can look
dark and threatening.

How do I chase the clouds away?

We All Walk with God In Perfect Holiness

Revs. Robert & Mary Stoelting

A theme that has been emphasized lately in our morning study and check in with Holy Spirit is to remember that we walk with God.

“…ideas leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be apart from God? How could you walk the world alone and separate from your Source?”

“You cannot walk the world apart from God, because you could not be without Him. He is what your life is. Where you are He is. There is one life. That life you share with Him. Nothing can be apart from Him and live.” (W-pI.156.1:3-5,2:4-9)

I Am Not a Victim of the World I See

by Rev. Myron Jones, O.M.C.

“A major contribution of miracles is their strength in releasing you from your false sense of isolation, deprivation and lack.” (T-1.I.42)

Why do I feel alone? Why do I feel deprived and as if I lack something? I used to believe it was because I wasn’t deserving of friends or lovers. They didn’t want me. Do you see how I perceived my loneliness to be someone else’s fault? If they would just like me I would be happy. When I felt deprived of money it was because someone wasn’t paying me enough, or hiring me, or because my parents didn’t raise me right. Believing my unhappiness was caused by someone or something else over which I had no control set up an endless cycle from which there was no escape.

A Miracle in a Masai Village

by Rev. Larry Glenz, O.M.C.

I finally made my “dream” excursion to Kenya along the equator in the highlands of east Africa. I taught about Kenya many years ago as a young Global Studies teacher of high school freshman. For more than three decades I had a desire to personally witness the natural wildlife found in the unique ecosystem of the Serengeti plains.

What Is It For?

by Rev. Jennifer McSween, M.A., O.M.C.

I must have decided wrongly because I was no longer at peace with the decision I made four years ago to have my mother return to live in Trinidad and come back to Montreal for visits twice a year. She had not visited for the last year and a half however, due to a relapse of her illness. As she was now able to travel again, I began to make arrangements for her next visit and found myself feeling “guilty” about not having her live with me and seriously questioning whether I had made the right decision.

Our Journey Home

by Rev. Peggy Rivera, O.M.C.

As we grow up in the world of chaos, we encounter incidences that form who we become as adults. So enmeshed in pain, we wrestle with feelings of emptiness, depression, anxiety, and loneliness. We spiral downward into the depths of grief for the loss of the Self until we have gotten so buried in the darkness of despair that we feel there is no other place we can go.
