I Remember God’s Gifts to Me

by Rev. Savina Cavallo, O.M.C.

A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 142 is a review of two previous ones.
“I thank my Father for His gifts to me” and “Let me remember I am one with God.”

As I sat with the first lesson, I closed my eyes and began to think about this.  Deeply. What are God’s gifts to me?  And they began to rise to my awareness; as I said them out loud to myself, I began to feel each one.  They are so many, and so good.  I realized that focusing and feeling these consistently can keep me in a state of fulfillment and oneness with God. The ones that were popping up like a water fountain and stood out more were these:

Journeying Through This World

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

… with the Course in hand. So many lessons, so much time, so many thoughts, and feelings that lead us into many different directions. I am busy un-learning.

What belief do I need to let go of? What pain is creeping in that is uninvited and yet keeps me focused on it? What has gotten me into this grumpy mood that I don’t want to do anything but bite back and attack?

I try to quiet myself and still those thoughts that come flashing in from all sides. Breathing in, breathing out. Forgiving and letting go.

Practice, Practice, Practice

by Rev. Colleen Fee, O.M.C.

You may recognize the phrases, “a little practice pays off” or “practice makes perfect.”

I have had many opportunities in my dream to practice what was important at the time. I loved playing softball so I spent many hours in the batter’s box or playing catch with anyone I could talk into throwing the ball. I remember when the perfect pitch came across the plate and I would swing and feel the bat hit the sweet spot of the ball and I just knew it was a double or triple.

Practice paid off.

When I was 14 years old I began riding horses and had the opportunity to learn English equestrian and hunter jumper style riding. I practiced every day and rode many horses to exercise and train them. As my abilities grew, I became a professional and taught and showed on the “A circuit” with riders who would qualify for the Olympic Games. With a ton of practice I was able to win several classes on form and style in equitation to qualify for Madison Square Garden in New York City — the top show every rider dreams about.

Practice makes perfect.

It’s All Right to Pause

by Rev. Mary Gerard Lenihan, O.M.C.

We live in a green light world. One of the main messages is to GO. We are told by others or we tell ourselves to keep going, go faster, you go, way to go, go here, go there, go now . . . go, go, go, go, go. I am suggesting today to pause from going. The world isn’t going to fall apart if I pause, if you pause. It’s all right to Pause. Not only is it all right to Pause, it is highly necessary to Pause. To not Pause is to get in one’s own way, to rule your own show, follow a crowd that is not your crowd and make decisions under stress. Decisions made in the state of stress cause more stress!

Why the fear of taking a pause?
I find that the more I don’t Practice the Pause, the more likely I will not Practice the Pause in the future. Not pausing becomes a vicious cycle, a way of life and frankly something our culture seems to value. It is a challenge to move against the grain, to Pause in a nonstop world, to do things differently, to not go with the status quo, to not agree with the way everyone else is doing it, to not follow the crowd; it is a challenge to truly be willing to BE INSPIRED. In my experience BEING INSPIRED requires pausing from going and going. The fear of pausing is that if I pause, I might miss out on something, something that needs to be done might not get done, and the main fear is that I will have to notice my fear-based thoughts that are driving my not pausing!

The Way

by Rev. Jim Peterson, O.M.C.


I walk to the setting sun.
There is peace in my heart,
for I am guided.

The challenges are many.
All unexpected.

Pain, fear, confusion, conflict
are my companions as well.
They are also guides.
They tell me of the false
judgments to which I still cling.

But my walking is filled with joy.
In the darkness before sunrise
Venus encourages me from the east
the moon leads me on to the west.

Jesus in the Window

by Rev. Dan Strodl, O.M.C.

I was four years old I walked out of my house holding my granddad’s hand. As we walked down the path, I looked back and saw in my bedroom window Jesus smiling at us. I said to granddad “Look! Jesus in the window!” Granddad yanked my arm, pulled me into his car, and told me not to be so stupid.

My family used to drag me to church every Sunday. I didn’t like seeing Jesus hanging on the cross with nails in his hands, and being told he died for my sins. That didn’t make sense to me even at an early age. I left traditional religion as soon as I could escape, and turned to a different god, the god of materialism. I went into advertising, and was given a job in the creative department of a big advertising agency on Madison Avenue, and flourished in this insane world.

Years later I owned an advertising agency with an alcoholic creative partner. He was going to AA meetings and was seeing a 12 step therapist to try to heal his addiction. One day my creative partner gave me a book called ‘The Road Less Traveled’ by Scott Peck, and I had another gentle nudge.
