Who Am I?

by Rev. Étienne Pait

Perhaps what and how we do anything comes from a direct correlation of how we perceive ourselves.  How often do we define who we are as a name, a role, a relationship, a fan, a nationality, a color, a status, a member, and so on and so on, ad nauseam? If my answer to the question, ‘Who am I?’ is ‘Étienne’ (the name my parents gave me) then I will be and act out according to whom I think ‘I’ should be, given the meaning I have for this body and mind I am using.

If my answer is, “I am a minister” then I will be and act out what I think a minister should be according to my definition. If my answer is, “I am an American,” then I will act out what I believe an American should be. If my answer is, “I am a father,” then I will be and act out according to the meaning I give this role. You get the idea. If I choose to perceive and identify who I am only through distinct identities and special relationships, then I will limit Who I can be and Who I really am.

Course Koans

by Rev. Jean Weston

The Merriam-Webster online dictionary defines koan as follows:

A paradox to be meditated upon that is used to train Zen Buddhist monks to abandon ultimate dependence on reason and to force them into gaining sudden intuitive enlightenment.

A Course In Miracles has an abundance of statements that fit the description of a koan.  It’s one of a number of qualities of the Course that convinces me that it truly is a divinely inspired writing. As a relatively new student, it has been helpful to contemplate these koans to open myself to deeper levels of my True Self. I will list a few of these, and state what comes to me when I really think about them.
Infinite patience produces immediate effects.  (T-5.VI.12)

Come to Me

by Rev. Christine Anderson

During a Pathways of Light “Joining with Holy Spirit” service, I received this beautiful message of support and encouragement from Holy Spirit.

Come to Me, come to Me, and remember that the false beliefs that you look at with Me will not overwhelm you. Just do this, when you notice a thought that does not hold value to you any longer: Call on Me and I’ll be there with My Hand on your shoulder as a real presence in your experience.

My Healing Journey

by Rev. Mary Manke

I have had many lessons, and opening to mind healing, which I am certain is just the beginning for me. I seem to have begun this experience of Lupus and transverse myelitis, on July 16th, 2007.

On Monday morning I couldn’t stand, I could not crawl. There was a constant tingling or buzzing from my feet up to my abdomen. Later it seemed to have crept up to just under the breasts. As I looked at my body’s ‘history’ and at the symptoms of Lupus, I saw that I have had many of the signs over the years, but so sporadically, over a long span, that they could not be tied together.

An Opportunity to Choose Peace

by Rev. Sharyn Zenz

One evening as I was driving along I realized I had not eaten dinner and it was 7 o’clock already, so I drove through the drive-thru at Taco John’s. Since it was not the rush hour, my order was taken immediately. When I got up to the window to pay, the girl took my money and left. Usually they give you whatever drink you ordered while you wait for the food order, but she didn’t.

After waiting what seemed like a long time, I decided to go to Spirit. I heard the words, “Now you have a chance to practice patience my dear.” Then the thoughts came to me that, after all, my only purpose here is to heal, so now I get a chance to practice.

What Is a Pirate?

by Linda Cosentino

This is not an entity. This is not a real thing outside of you. This is a thought. This pirate is vicious and out to destroy our True Identity, if we let the thoughts control us.  This is our little self that thinks it is God.  It robs us of our treasures.

We are the treasures of God. We are created in the image (reflection in a mirror) and likeness (exact copy) of God, and we have all the attributes (distinguishing characteristics) of God. These attributes are Love, Peace, Joy and Happiness. Your ship is your vehicle to bring you back to God.  “Your ship has come in.”

God Is Famous too

by Rev. Georgeanne Medved

Through television, radio, magazines and other media I learn about many famous people, even heroic people. Many of these people have great qualities that I would like to imitate. A Course in Miracles, however, teaches me that I should always imitate God and walk His path in Love.

My highest calling and largest struggle in life is to open to God’s insight with my attitudes and actions every day of my life. Unlike the famous, unapproachable people I learn about, God knows me and really desires to have a personal relationship with me. He is a merciful and loving Father Who knows all of my shortcomings but still accepts me as His Child.
