Kindness Created Me Kind

by Rev. Myron Jones, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

I strove to be a kind person, to treat others kindly, to dream of my brother’s kindnesses instead of dwelling in my dream on his mistakes. Sometimes it felt like a struggle, many battles fought and some won but the effort endless. And yet, I knew it must be possible because in Lesson 67, I am told that Love created me like Itself and that Kindness created me kind, and I know that what God creates remains as He created it.

God created me kind so how is it that I felt a need to struggle to express what I am? I was not actually struggling to be kind, but was struggling to overcome the ego tendency toward judgment and defensiveness. As, over the years, my mind has healed and become clear, kind is simply what I am. Jesus expresses this transformation perfectly in Text, Chapter 5.

“How can you who are so holy suffer? All your past except its beauty is gone, and nothing is left but a blessing. I have saved all your kindnesses and every loving thought you ever had. I have purified them of the errors that hid their light, and kept them for you in their own perfect radiance.” (T-5.IV.8)

Seeing My Life as a Movie

by Rev. Christine Anderson, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

This article came from inspirations I received from the meditation, “Healing by Seeing Your ‘life’ as a Movie,” from ACIM Practitioner Course 922.

From the 922 Workbook I read: “I am willing to have the truth reinforced and not illusions. I remember that everything I see with the body’s eyes is unreal. It is a made-up script that is being played in my mind, like a movie on a screen. Remembering this will help lift the hypnosis of the ego and free me to become aware of my true identity again.”

I like movies, like “Groundhog Day,” depicting the ego’s story of separation, showing up as manipulation and control, and trying to replace God’s Love through the ego, playing out day after day until the main characters open to Love and the new day dawns!

When I’m at the movies, I really enjoy when the actors play their parts so well that I forget that it is a movie. For awhile, I don’t give “my own personal movie” even a thought.

Healing Relationships Is an Inside Job

by Rev. Cathy Silva, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

On a Saturday morning I went for my walk around the neighborhood and as I did I listened to the audio version of a book I learned about from Pathways of Light. The book is titled The Only Little Prayer You Need by Debra Engle. It’s a short read and I was able to listen to the entire book in just a couple hours. I love that. I also love that this short prayer is a way of practicing the true forgiveness referred to over and over in A Course in Miracles.

The prayer is:

Please heal my fear-based thoughts.

As in the steps in practicing true forgiveness, we first become aware of our fear based thoughts or ego, which is something I’ve been vigilant about doing for the past few months especially.

Once a fear based thought comes up, you say the prayer to Holy Spirit (Higher Power), Please heal my fear-based thoughts about… (whatever the bear based thought is).

Transforming Guilt into Kindness

by Revs. Mary & Robert Stoelting

What is kindness? Kindness is an attribute of Love. How do we return to being aware of the Love we all are?

In A Course in Miracles we are told,

“Praise be to you who make the Father one with His Own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can even think of it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will never more be what it was.” (T-13.X.14:1-3, underline added)

Our journey is a journey of mind healing.

One More Kiss Goodnight

by Rev. Mike Atkins, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

My partner, Mike, died last summer at the age of 56. He was diagnosed with end stage COPD in September of 2009 and told he probably had three to four years left. With a lot of love, and a willingness to explore all options, we were blessed to have ten more years together. It wasn’t easy, but somehow we managed to take care of it all, and I know we both did everything we could.

A few weeks ago, I was cleaning up his office and found a notebook on his desk. Inside, there were several pages where he had written down some random thoughts, as if he were brainstorming the problem and trying to figure out what to do. It was all an explanation as to why everything was his fault. There was even a page that said “my fault,” with arrows drawn to every item in a list of problems.

I was very upset when I found this, and I reached out to my spiritual counselor, Rev. Barbara Siegel, who always inspires me to do my best. She suggested that I might write a letter to Mike.
